16 Rangitahi Road, Raglan, Waikato

Now priced to sell this one of a kind Mediterranean villa sat on the waters edge, will make you feel like you are permanently on holiday.

Aptly named Casa del Sol, House of the sun this north facing home welcomes all day sun through large scale windows that frame the water and the wider coastal landscape.

The private oasis is the perfect place to relax with friends and family as you watch magnificent sun sets across Mt Karioi while the kids live their best life frolicking in the shoreline below throwing sticks for mans best friend.

Designed by the owners in collaboration with Red Architecture, this impeccable, light filled property within Raglans newest coastal community, Rangitahi Peninsula is often admired by passersby for its architecture and pride of place.

The open plan living area and kitchen connect with the wrap around deck, providing a hub to entertain friends and family while enjoying the ebb and flow of the water below. Soak up the sun in private intimate courtyard by day, and toast marshmallows by the fire and marvel at the stars as the moon glistens across the water below at night.

The master bedroom and ensuite bathroom connect with the wrap around the deck, while the two further double bedrooms, family bathroom and laundry are away from the living areas for peace and quiet. The office nook with its own water view means you can work from home while the double garage provides plenty of room for your car, boat or campervan.

Those with an eye for detail will appreciate the terracotta tiles, rendered walls brass fixtures, arches and curves inspired by summer holidays spent in the Mediterranean. And those with a sustainable mindset will also appreciate the effort that has gone into building a high thermal performing home that is cool in summer and warm in winter.
