Tucked away in the heart of the Bay of Islands, 1 Roberton Island (Motuarohia) is more than just a property - it's a rare and remarkable retreat, accessible only by water or helicopter. One of only five private homes on this historic island - first charted by Captain Cook in 1769 - this extraordinary estate offers a level of seclusion, natural beauty, and luxury that is simply unmatched.
Imagine arriving by helicopter, the turquoise waters below shimmering in the sun as you descend onto your private helipad. Or perhaps you prefer the journey by boat, docking at the jetty before stepping onto your own secluded beachfront. With one private swing mooring for vessels up to 14 metres and a boat ramp allowing easy access for jet skis and tenders, this property is perfectly set up for those who embrace life on the water.
The estate is designed to complement its spectacular surroundings, with every detail reflecting comfort, quality, and a deep connection to nature. The main residence, a beautifully appointed three bedroom home, offers light-filled living spaces that flow effortlessly to outdoor entertaining areas. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame breathtaking ocean vistas, while the warmth of an open fireplace invites relaxation on cooler evenings. A modern, high-spec kitchen - complete with stone benchtops, premium appliances, and a walk-in pantry - makes entertaining a breeze.
Step outside, and a heated plunge pool overlooks the bay, providing the perfect spot to soak up the serenity. The immaculately landscaped grounds are designed for low-maintenance luxury, allowing you to enjoy the surroundings without the upkeep. For guests or extended family, there is an additional, separate, two bedroom accommodation that offers privacy and comfort, making it ideal for hosting visitors or accommodating staff.
