Earthly Elegance

About This Property

Blurring boundaries - a visionary, earth-integrated dwelling with a living, green roof that's as out of sight as it is out of this world.

Welcome to a groundbreaking home in picturesque Peka Peka, with the ocean on one side, Tararua Range on the other and an exhilarating, eco-friendly lifestyle bursting with possibilities like no other.

From black swan swimming in the pond at the front gate, to 2.5890 hectares* of unspoilt rolling countryside to the sheltered and intimate 142sqm*, three-bedroom with study retreat - nestled amid greenery and serenity, the immersion in Mother Nature is immense.

Built 25 years ago for a German engineer, with concept input from architect Fritz Eisenhofer, this cedar, schist and concrete sanctuary was designed for longevity and permanence grounded in harmony with the environment without compromising style. The 'reverse roof', where the natural 'insulation' is on the outside, keeps the house warm in winter and cool in summer. The lounge opens to the hardwood deck, creating an extra 'room' complete with shade sail, outdoor fireplace and even a day bed for relaxing to the soothing sounds of the falling water feature.

Coastal living that completely cocoons you from the elements is only part of this unique property's appeal. There's also a levelled site where a stage two development was originally proposed to capitalise on the sea views that sweep across the South Island and Kapiti Island to Mount Taranaki.

Whether you want a sophisticated holiday home with possible stage two development potential (subject to consent), or simply crave solitude and splendour just a short stroll from the beach, this opportunity will inspire and enthral you.
