About this property

Garden and Bird Haven

This well-appointed home with its award-winning garden is sited on the crest of Palm Beach. Sweeping through rolling green countryside to the sparkling sea, the landscape here possesses a magnetic, almost ethereal beauty that, like music, stirs the soul. This tranquil sanctuary connects deeply with the spirit. Nestled right beside it is the boutique Māwhitipana Ridge Estate, adding to the area`s magic. The house has all that you need to ensure a comfortable and relaxing stay.

The living and lounge area flows seamlessly from the fully equipped kitchen to decks that frame the view. There is a timeless sense of summer. You are welcome to choose between the sun-drenched Queen suite or the King suite—which includes an additional day bed—both offering breathtaking vistas.

When you choose to venture out, Palm Beach is a mere 1.5 kms or a 15 mins walk downhill. You could hire a SUP by the store and enjoy easy access to the beautiful waters of the bay, then feast at the fabulous Arcadia restaurant. A 10-minute walk will take you to Palm Beach Resort where you can indulge in the pool, bar and restaurant. For more action, at Ostend, you’ll find the Farmers Market on Saturdays, the local supermarket, takeaways, coffee shops and a liquor outlet. Vineyards, cafes and restaurants are just a short drive away from this most central of locations. Māwhitipana Ridge Estate, just next door, offers wine tastings of its premium Syrah and Marsanne wines.
