Matakana Coast's most breathtaking view
Hawks Nest
The journey to the awe-inspiring vantage point of one of Matakana Coast's best-kept secret properties, Hawks Nest, is a transition into another world. Hidden behind secure gates in the exclusive enclave of Whangateau, the ascent to this two-hectare (more or less) private-sanctuary feels like leaving the ordinary behind. Perched upon its own crowning knoll, the estate is cradled by ancient native forest and a sweeping four-hectare (more or less) covenanted no-build zone, ensuring your absolute privacy is preserved for generations. Lucky invitees inevitably claim that it offers "the most breathtaking views on the Matakana Coast".
The astute buyer will appreciate the opportunity to negotiate a larger parcel of the adjoining land to expand the potential this property offers.
Upon arriving at Hawks Nest, the silence is broken only by the melodic call of native birds and the distant thrum of waves breaking on the shore. To stand here is to witness a forever-evolving-cinematic masterpiece: a 360-degree panorama where the quartz-white sand dunes of Omaha jutting from the Tawharanui Peninsula and the rugged silhouette of Ti Point meet the infinite blue of the Pacific. On the horizon, Auckland City's skyline and the harbour's great protectors, Great Barrier Island and the Coromandel Peninsula rest like sleeping giants against the sea and sky.
Anchoring the estate, the primary residence has been curated with a sophisticated and refined eye for detail. Warm genuine American oak floors ground the light-filled living spaces, where expansive glass walls frame a cinematic landscape of constantly evolving, living art.
The entertainer's kitchen-a masterful fusion of utility and grace-allows effortless flow into the open plan living and dining zones as well as the sheltered outdoor patios designed for family and friends to gather al fresco, and equally for intimate reflection and repose.
Accommodation is elegantly understated, defined by privacy and serenity. The master suite opens through two sets of double doors to the rear patios and features dual walk-in wardrobes and an elegant ensuite.
The two additional guest suites also with double door openings to patios and each with their own ensuite-offer soft privacy and comfort for family or visitors.
A separate laundry and powder room, alongside an office/study and a media room/living room off which the bedrooms unfurl, provide the versatility required for a modern lifestyle without ever compromising the estate's tranquil atmosphere.
Living at Hawks Nest is an outdoor odyssey. A short path separates the primary residence from a further outdoor living area. This perfectly positioned heated pool and courtyard invites year-round gatherings where permission to play is paramount. Dedicated to bathing and lounging, this area is supported by a shading pergola, bar, changing room/wc, and a full size pétanque court. As evening falls, the dramatic outdoor stone fireplace becomes the soul of this oasis, inviting long conversations under a canopy of stars in an environment that feels both wild and wonderfully refined.
Further enhancing the estate's legacy is a separate and stand alone studio cottage complete with a separate kitchenette and bathroom. Hugged by a wraparound deck and surrounded by mature native flora, this self-contained retreat offers independence for guests, staff and extra family.
A generous double-bay storage shed provides the necessary infrastructure to store equipment for the estate and the accoutrements befitting the custodians of Hawks Nest.
Hawks Nest offers a unique duality. It provides the deep, quiet isolation of a private retreat, yet remains perfectly positioned to enjoy the very best that New Zealand offers in high-end coastal lifestyles and leisure destinations. For the international buyer, this means effortless proximity to areas of true global renown, including world-class golfing at Te Arai and Tara Iti.
Though it feels a world apart, Hawks Nest remains perfectly connected. The artisan charm of Matakana Village is just minutes away, and Auckland's CBD is reachable within 15-20 minutes by helicopter and under a single hour by car, offering the ultimate balance between absolute seclusion and metropolitan convenience.
Transcending the concept of a mere residence, Hawks Nest showcases elevated New Zealand's coastal living at its best.
Here, one is immersed in a panoramic, cinematic masterpiece from an unparalleled vantage point-a place to dream, to flourish and ultimately to take flight within an environment of sublime exclusivity.
Discerning buyers are invited to consider this rare prestige opportunity to secure a sanctuary and retreat-a heritage property that lives in absolute harmony with nature and provides limitless possibilities to its custodian.
Begin your journey towards life as it should be.
We warmly invite you to contact Matt Peat to arrange a private viewing, by appointment only.
