50 Bay Vista Drive, Pohara, Tasman, Nelson / Tasman

Commanding an awe-inspiring position overlooking the expanse of Golden Bay, this immaculate coastal property is a rare offering – where world class views, exceptional scale and refined craftsmanship come together to create a lifestyle found only in the finest international properties. Framed by a sweeping 1,596sqm (more or less) of established grounds, the residence captures an uninterrupted panorama of Golden Bay, with spectacular sunsets that ignite the horizon and bathe the home in golden light. Properties of this calibre are seldom found in this region and almost never brought to market. Built in the 2000’s from enduring brick, concrete block, the home spans an impressive 349sqm (more or less) and is designed for absolute comfort with full insulation, underfloor heating in bathrooms, ceiling heat and air-conditioning units and fibre internet. Expansive interior spaces flow effortlessly toward the view, with the main living area opening wide to an elevated deck that appears to float above the coastline. A built-in entertainment system enhances the atmosphere, while an adjoining study provides flexibility as an additional lounge, home office or creative retreat. At the heart of the home, the designer kitchen stands as a statement of quality, featuring granite benchtops, beer and wine fridges, quality appliances, generous storage and a spacious pantry. A wide servery window connects the kitchen directly with the outdoor living spaces, creating a seamless transition between entertaining, cooking and the surrounding coastal beauty. Accommodation is luxurious and private, with the master suite positioned to capture the full drama of the bay. A walk-in robe, beautifully tiled ensuite, Yamaha sound system and integrated ceiling speakers complete this elegant retreat. Two further bedrooms occupy the eastern wing, each opening directly outdoors and serviced by a large family bathroom – perfect for guests or extended family. Outdoor living here is truly exceptional, offering a choice of carefully crafted spaces designed for every moment and every season. A cascading water feature forms a centrepiece of relaxation, while the louvred pergola with integrated lighting, shade screens and multiple terraces ensures comfort from sunrise to sunset. Thoughtfully designed landscaping frames each viewpoint with total privacy. A magnificent spa pool situated in a private covered outdoor area feature retractable all-weather blinds that lower seamlessly to create a sheltered outdoor retreat and lift away when you want open views and sunshine. For collectors, hobbyists or those requiring extraordinary storage, the garaging is unmatched. A vast 20m x 8m internal access garage allows secure parking for at least seven vehicles with abundant room for motorbikes, equipment or workshop space. A further large double garage forms part of the separate guest house, providing independent parking and flexibility for visiting family or premium accommodation use. The guest house itself is a beautifully appointed space with open-plan living, full kitchen, modern bathroom and private bedroom – an ideal retreat that also lends itself perfectly to Airbnb or long-term guests. Perfectly elevated above the Pohara coastline, this remarkable property offers tranquillity and privacy while remaining close to the beachfront, local cafés, the marina and the natural wonders that define Golden Bay. 50 Bay Vista Drive is more than a home; it is a coastal statement – an extraordinary blend of scale, design, technology and natural beauty. For buyers seeking a world class sanctuary in one of New Zealand’s most inspiring coastal regions, this exceptional property stands alone.
