16 Tamatea Drive

Snells Beach

Room for the boat, the workshop and a view you’ll never tire of.

For those who have been searching for a home where the boat has a place, the workshop finally solves the storage problem, and visiting family are always welcome, 16 Tamatea Drive offers a combination that is becoming increasingly difficult to find.

“We love the view and the airiness of the house. It is great to just sit on the deck in the evening and see all the neighbourhood lights.”

It’s easy to understand why.

From the deck, Kawau Bay stretches out before you. Boats move across the water, the light shifts throughout the day, and as evening arrives the neighbourhood lights begin to appear across the landscape. It is the sort of outlook that keeps drawing you back for one last look before heading inside.

Designed to make the most of its elevated position, the home enjoys a wonderful sense of openness throughout. Vaulted ceilings enhance the feeling of space, while large windows ensure the view remains a constant part of the home. The modern kitchen connects effortlessly with the dining and living areas, creating a welcoming environment for entertaining, relaxing and spending time with family and friends.

Three bedrooms and two bathrooms provide comfortable accommodation, including a master suite complete with ensuite. A wood burner adds warmth and atmosphere through the cooler months, while a heat pump provides year-round comfort.

The expansive deck is where much of life is enjoyed. Morning coffee comes with a front-row seat to the bay, family gatherings naturally spill outdoors, and evenings are often spent lingering a little longer than planned as the lights begin to sparkle below.

Beneath the home lies some of its most valuable features. A substantial workshop, recreation room and storage area provide the sort of versatility many buyers spend years looking for. Whether it’s hobbies, projects, guests, working from home, storing fishing gear, bikes, tools or all the equipment that comes with boating and coastal living, it is a space that will quickly prove its worth.

Boaties will feel right at home here. Dedicated boat parking, generous off-street parking and easy access to local boat ramps mean getting out on the water can be as spontaneous as checking the forecast and deciding to go.

Established gardens, a selection of fruit trees and easy-care grounds complete the picture, while Tui and coastal birdlife provide a constant reminder of the natural environment that surrounds the home.

The area provides the lifestyle many people move here for. Whether it’s time on the water, coffee by the beach, weekends exploring Matakana or simply enjoying the relaxed pace that comes with coastal living, everything is close enough to enjoy without spending half the day getting there.

For active retirees wanting room for the boat and hobbies, coastal buyers seeking an outlook they will never tire of, or families wanting flexibility, storage and space for visiting guests, 16 Tamatea Drive offers a combination that is becoming increasingly difficult to replace. A home where the view is memorable, the workshop is genuinely useful, and the lifestyle speaks for itself.

Defined by design. Driven by results.
