Accessible by boat and car and positioned on the waterfront of Elie Bay, is this truly remarkable villa that is steeped in history. Originally built in the late 1800's as the original Hopai station homestead, the villa has since been meticulously and sensitively restored to a high standard, showcasing its rich heritage and its timeless charm.
Spread across two titles, the property boasts one of the largest flat waterfront sections in the Marlborough Sounds. It is enveloped by lush, landscaped gardens, an orchard, mature native trees, a stream that runs through the property and spectacular views of the surrounding ranges and out across the water.
The villa features three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a formal dining room and lounge, a well-appointed farmhouse kitchen and a study, all located off the main hallway which runs through the home. The rolled roof veranda at the front of the villa provides shade and shelter as you watch the evening sun set across Crail Bay.
There is plenty of space available for vehicles and boats, with a large shed on the property catering to storage requirements. The Historic Boatel, which was built in the 1950's and is featured in the book written about the property called 'before we say goodbye' is ready for the new owners to restore it to its former glory. This would provide a further four bedrooms with facilities, enabling the new owner to host family and friends during the holiday season or provide a source of income by hosting guests.
The properties own 2/5 shares in the Elie Bay Wharf, making boating access easy, enabling you to experience the outer Pelorus Sound and beyond, which has some of the best fishing and diving New Zealand has to offer.
This is a once in a generation opportunity to secure a piece of Marlborough Sounds history for your family to enjoy for generations to come in New Zealand's Sunniest region.
