Situated on over 30 acres of prime beachfront land in the heart of the bay, Riversea is a totally unique property offering three diverse homes, plus a huge workshop and an octagonal music room and much much more. Golden Bay is an enviable lifestyle location to escape to, with beautiful beaches, a vibrant art scene and both Abel Tasman and Kahurangi National Parks nearby to adventure in.

The driveway leads over the tidal creek and through the trees to the Tower House, this cosy cottage has been the perfect care takers residence. Driving by the five hectares of paddocks we head seaward now to marvel at the bespoke architecture of the main house which consists of three zones. Firstly, the main wing has a master suite and study on the 1st floor and a balcony looking out over mature gardens and beach-side pony paddocks to the sea beyond. On the ground-floor, spacious open plan living with a well-appointed farmhouse kitchen opens onto a patio entertaining area. Secondly the cedar clad guest wing provides laundry facilities, storage and a drying room. Finally enjoying a beautiful garden setting the fully self-contained cottage provides a lovely one bedroom home with a patio and courtyard. There’s a Sleepout too!

The well designed cedar clad workshop offers three-phase power and has been divided into three creative bays, currently one each for woodwork, metalwork, and sewing. And still there is more Finally allow me to show you the Octogans, lovingly built to provide space for quiet contemplation and creativity. The largest is 60sqm, wired for sound and lighting, with a control booth and store rooms; the second octogan has a tiled floor and storage room. Both have wood fires.
