Positioned with absolute exclusivity, Hawks Nest stands as one of the most remarkable lifestyle estates on the Matakana Coast. Set in the enclave of Whangateau, hidden behind secure gated access and commanding a crowning position on its own knoll, this extraordinary two-hectare (approx.) private sanctuary is enveloped by native bush, protected natural landscapes, and a further four-hectare (approx.) of covenanted no build zone. From its elevated vantage point, uninterrupted panoramas sweep across Omaha, Ti Point, the surrounding coastline, and stretch further still to Great Barrier Island and the Coromandel Peninsula - a cinematic outlook of sea, sky, and untouched New Zealand beauty.

Here, nature takes centre stage. Birdsong fills the air, native forest wraps around you, and the tranquillity is absolute. Whether arriving from Auckland or from offshore, this is a retreat that feels a world apart - a place to disconnect, to breathe, and to experience ultimate seclusion paired with refined luxury.

At the heart of the estate, the main residence has been fully renovated with an impeccable eye for detail, delivering sophistication that matches its rare setting. American oak floors flow through sun-drenched living spaces, each carefully oriented to frame the extraordinary views. The entertainer's kitchen is designed for hosting on any scale, anchoring a beautifully proportioned living area that transitions seamlessly to outdoor terraces and the natural panoramas beyond.

Accommodation is conceived as a series of private sanctuaries. The master suite boasts a generous ensuite and dual walk-in wardrobes, while two additional bedrooms - each with their own ensuite and walk-in wardrobe - provide luxurious space for family or guests. A second lounge offers flexibility as a media room or children's retreat, and a dedicated office makes working from home both practical and serene. A guest powder room and spacious laundry complete the home with considered functionality.

Outdoors, the estate unfolds into a resort-style environment. Landscaped grounds give way to native forest and sweeping coastal and rural views. A heated pool forms the centrepiece of the outdoor living area, complemented by a bar and changing room facilities, a pétanque court, and a sheltered entertainment area anchored by a dramatic stone fireplace - perfect for long summer afternoons and evenings under the stars.

A beautifully appointed studio provides additional accommodation, featuring open-plan living and sleeping, a kitchenette, bathroom, and a wraparound deck immersed in the surrounding bush. Ideal for guests, extended family, staff, or income, it offers privacy and independence without compromising connection to the landscape.

For practical needs, a substantial double-bay storage shed ensures ample space for equipment, gear, and lifestyle pursuits - essential for an estate of this calibre.

Hawks Nest is an exceptional convergence of luxury, nature, and complete seclusion - a private world unto itself, yet just minutes from Matakana Village, and one hour from Auckland's CBD.

This is New Zealand lifestyle living at its highest level: a retreat in absolute harmony with its surroundings, crafted for those who value privacy, beauty, and rarity above all else.
