Oceanview Sanctuary, Pure Escape

Just 40 minutes from Wellington’s CBD and around an hour from the airport, this is a rare opportunity to secure a private retreat in one of the region’s most remarkable coastal settings. Fully off-grid and set within a protected ecological reserve, the property offers complete seclusion, framed by nature and ever-changing sea views.

Wake each day to uninterrupted outlooks across Cook Strait, stretching to the Marlborough Sounds and Kaikoura ranges. Behind, the dramatic ridgelines of the “Wellington Alps” rise, while the West Wind turbines mark the landscape. It is a setting that feels both expansive and deeply private.

The living space has been thoughtfully positioned to embrace the view, with large sliding doors opening seamlessly to the outdoors. Morning light fills the interior, while the connection to the deck creates an easy indoor/outdoor flow, ideal for relaxed living and quiet reflection.

Step outside and the experience continues. A covered deck invites slow mornings, with hammocks perfectly placed for coffee at sunrise. A deep outdoor bath sits privately, offering a place to unwind while taking in the ocean beyond.

Currently featured on a boutique short-stay accommodation website, the property offers an established income stream. Enjoy it as your own weekend retreat, while generating income to help offset ownership costs when not in use.

The environment is ever-changing - mist rolling in from the sea, followed by clear, golden light and vivid sunsets. As evening settles, the stillness is complete, with the possibility of hearing native birdlife, including recently released kiwi, in the distance.

A unique coastal offering, combining privacy, outlook, lifestyle and income potential, just minutes from Wellington.
