8 Ngarimu Heights Row, Thornton Bay, Thames, Waikato Seaside X-Factor: Luxury, Views & Lifestyle

Few homes boast a magnificent vista from every window, but views are just one of the standout features of this X factor home overlooking the Firth of Thames. At one with nature, the architecturally dynamic residence interacts with its surroundings through swathes of glazing and decks. Front decks gaze across the Firth to Waiheke Island, the Hunua ranges and Coromandel range while the rear alfresco surveys a spacious terraced garden, which is a feast for the senses.

The home's stunning structural form is provided by internal exposed black steel framework softened by a warm, blonded timber interior, sparkling chandeliers, and wooden flooring in the main living area. A lift from the double basement garage into this area makes the interior effortlessly accessible.

The expansive, light-filled open plan hub, anchored by a stone-top kitchen, contains enticing spaces in which to relax and entertain. Double sliding doors open the dining area to a cosy covered deck backdropped by colourful year-round plantings, making it the perfect spot for breakfast, morning coffee or an evening meal. A north-facing deck, with seating and a panoramic outlook, extends off the media room.

Two spacious double bedrooms, one of which accesses a full bathroom, ease off the wide west-wing hallway. A third toilet and a built-in laundry complete this wing. A dramatic floating stairwell ascends to the private master bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe, an ensuite and views galore from every window.

Birdsong is a constant reminder that this eco-home is surrounded by bush and abundant gardens. Citrus and blueberries grow on the terraces and the well-established orchard offers harvests of apples, pears, peaches, plums and nectarines. A rustic fence shelters the conveniently sited kitchen garden.

Just 10 minutes scenic drive from Thames, this coastal dream haven in iconic Thornton Bay is close to everyday amenities. Lying in an exclusive cul-de-sac neighbourhood, the home takes full advantage of its elevation and seascape setting.
