This exceptional beachfront property offers numerous possibilities, making it ideal for extended family living with four separate dwellings. Each residence ensures privacy and autonomy for two to three generations. The favourable climate and fertile land are perfect for self-sufficiency or an idyllic lifestyle.
Golden Bay is renowned for its creative community and stunning landscapes. Situated on Paton's Rock Beach, this 16-hectare estate, built in 2010 by a creative couple, includes a unique seaside home and two bespoke octagonal studios designed for visual and acoustic arts.
Additional buildings include a seven-room cedar-clad workshop with three-phase power, three more dwellings, sleepouts, a garage, a three-bay shed, a tack room, and a storage shed. The organic gardens feature established fruit trees, a vegetable plot, a potting shed, a shade house, and a large glasshouse. There has also been extensive native plant restoration along the river.
The property is located about 1.5 hours northwest of Nelson City. Golden Bay's pristine, often secluded beaches are near Abel Tasman National Park to the east and Kahurangi National Park to the south and west. Takaka, the area's central hub, offers schools, shops, banks, and cafes within a 10-minute drive. Daily flights to Wellington are available from Takaka.
