My vendors are ready to move, presenting a rare opportunity to secure this immaculately presented, modern sanctuary set within a peaceful, private oasis on an 890 sqm section.
From the moment you arrive, this stunning home impresses with its light-filled interiors, thoughtful design, and an unmistakable sense of privacy.
Designed for effortless entertaining, the spacious open-plan living area, with a heat pump in place to accommodate all seasons is wrapped in natural light and flows seamlessly onto the upper deck, complete with a covered area for year-round enjoyment.

The spectacular modern kitchen is both stylish and functional, featuring an Asko pyrolytic oven, induction cooktop, Miele dishwasher, generous storage, and expansive bench space — a true centrepiece for entertaining.
The home’s practical layout places living and entertaining on the upper level, complemented by a guest powder room, while the lower level is dedicated to rest and relaxation.
Three spacious bedrooms with newly laid carpet open directly onto the lower deck and enjoys access to the pool area, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection. The master suite is a private retreat, complete with built-in robes and a luxurious ensuite featuring a deep soaking bathtub and separate shower.
Overlooking the west-facing aspect, the heated 10-metre lap pool glistens below, framed by decks designed for sunbathing, relaxing, and unwinding at the end of the day with a glass of wine. The private pool area is exceptionally well appointed, boasting an outdoor shower, bar area, and a clever basket dumb waiter connecting the upper deck to the pool — an entertainer’s dream. Solar power supports the heated pool and helps keep power costs affordable, enhancing the home’s efficiency and appeal.
Storage is abundant, with a separate under-house room currently utilised as an office, an additional lockable storage space, and a double internal-access garage incorporating the laundry. The landscaped grounds feature established tropical gardens, vegetable planter boxes, and a very small lawn, making the property wonderfully easy to care for while remaining visually stunning.
A solar system is in place to minimise power bills, operating under a transferable lease agreement with 17 years remaining at a minimal monthly cost.

Dianne Quinn
Over 48 years of married life, and while raising three wonderful children (she is now grandmother to five), she and her husband have owned or leased eight substantial hospitality operations. The acquisition and sale of these businesses has given Dianne an insight into complex agreements and prepared her well for her current role. She has dealt with every level of professional advisor and now has an extensive knowledge of title issues, marketing strategies, the operation of trust accounts, best business practice and of course the all-important real estate activities of listing and selling, negotiation, and staff recruitment, training and motivation. Another step into a real estate career was personally buying and selling her own investment properties, learning the processes of due diligence and calculating financial returns. She became very familiar with real estate documentation over the years, and this has led to her current role as one of Paihia’s most successful salespeople. Dianne became a qualified salesperson in 2000, completed her National Diploma in 2005 and with her husband opened Dianne Quinn Real Estate, initially operating as an independent company until being invited to join the Ray White group. After successful years in operation, Dianne has now decided to concentrate fully on selling in a professional manner, which is what she has always wanted to be focused on. Dianne brings enormous positive energy to a business competing in a diverse and competitive market. Any spare time she can conjure up is spent gardening, boating and fishing, and most of all giving even more of her energy to her well-loved grandchildren.
