229 Kokako Heights, Matata, Whakatane, Bay Of Plenty

Discover your private retreat at this exceptional property where modern design and untouched nature exist in perfect harmony. Nestled within 1.615 hectares (more or less) of pristine native bush in the secure Matata Conservation Estate, this 124sqm (more or less) carefully crafted home offers a lifestyle that is as peaceful as it is inspiring.

Perched in an elevated position, the two-bedroom home with potential third bedroom/office captures breathtaking views across the Rangitaiki Plains to Moutohora (Whale Island), creating an ever-changing backdrop of light, sea, and sky. Designed for effortless living, the open-plan layout flows seamlessly through large sliding doors, blending indoor and outdoor spaces so the native bush feels like part of your living room.

A modern kitchen, log burner, and spacious open living area make it ideal for relaxation or entertaining. The two large bedrooms open directly to the deck, each with tranquil bush and sea views, while the potential third bedroom or office provides flexible space for working remotely or hosting guests. Two generous tiled bathrooms have been carefully thought out and uniquely crafted, with bespoke vanities and open showers. The generous laundry and ample parking front and rear this property balances comfort with practicality.

Outside, winding bush tracks invite you to explore, surrounded by the melody of native birds. Follow the secret trails to discover natural springs, and when night falls, watch as glow worms sparkle gently through the undergrowth. To the rear of the home there is space for a future garage (subject to Council approval if required), a tranquil yoga platform surrounded by native plants and an outdoor shower.

Perfect for professionals, travellers, or those seeking a lock-and-leave lifestyle, this home's low-maintenance design and connection to nature make it a true sanctuary. Listen to the chorus of native birds, breathe in the clean coastal air, and feel the calm of being surrounded by protected land, all within easy reach of Whakatane and the Bay of Plenty coast.

Whether you're seeking a peaceful escape, a yoga retreat, or a nature-inspired base to work from, 229 Kokako Heights invites you to live differently, elevated, immersed, and entirely at ease.
