Twin Bays is a magnificent ten acre working vineyard, perched near the edge of its own peninsula. The home welcomes in a vista that takes in the entire float of the Hauraki Gulf Islands. It is once you cross the threshold of Twin Bays front door, that the ultimate surprise is pleasantly delivered, for it is here that the unassuming gives way to the unsurpassed.
The entrance to the board-and-batten home holds little clue as to the magnitude of the view behind it. This five bedroom house with its wide eves, shallow-pitched corrugated roof and strand board and cork-tiled flooring was fashioned in the Californian-ranch style. It is a house that inspires creativity on many fronts - both indoors and out.
The house is lavished with wonderful original art and the grounds are full of fascinating and interesting sculptures, from a corrugated elephant to a cheeky trio of penguins at the tennis court gate. The designer kitchen captures a seaside theme complete with a thick slab of Terrazzo with white marble chip, which forms a chunky practical work surface on the central island bench. The kitchen flows into the dining and family rooms, to create one cohesive living space.
This property offers a wonderful living and entertaining space second to none. If you so wish, a chauffeur driven white convertible Caddilac is available for you to cruise the island in. A small captained fishing boat is also available to explore the Island by water (both available at an additional cost.) If you want the best, then this is it!
