Property Description
There is something quite different about 8 Bell Bird Rise.Set on the flat top of a ridge above Picton and Waikawa, this home has been cleverly positioned to take advantage of its elevated setting. Enjoying all-day sun and 360-degree views across the Marlborough Sounds, Picton township, Waikawa marina, farmland and native bush of the Boon Valley, as well as the open grounds of Endeavour Park.
For all that outlook, there is also real privacy. The property adjoins a grass reserve and native bush, with birdsong forming part of everyday life. It feels private and peaceful, while remaining remarkably close to both Picton and Waikawa. The waterfronts are within walking distance, Victoria Domain and its network of trails are nearby, and boat lovers are spoilt for choice with two marina's, providing easy access to the Marlborough Sounds.
Designed by architect Tim Barton, the home is modern in its construction but warm in its character. Structurally insulated panels, steel girders and timber weatherboard cladding provide a strong, highly insulated build, while the extensive use of recycled native timber and original kauri doors gives the interior a character rarely found in a contemporary home.
The main living spaces are generous and filled with natural light, opening to decks on both the eastern and western sides. Morning sun, afternoon sun, shelter and outlook can all be enjoyed at different points around the home. On the western side, a heated swimming pool is integrated into the deck, creating an infinity style pool, positioned perfectly for the afternoon sun.
The master suite enjoys its own privacy and rural outlook, while a separate wing provides additional double bedrooms and office space for family, friends or those working from home.
Outside, four raised vegetable gardens and 18 established fruit trees offer the pleasure of growing your own produce, supported by a 3,500-litre rainwater tank for summer irrigation. There is room here to garden and enjoy the land, without taking on the scale or upkeep of a larger lifestyle property.
It is this combination that sets 8 Bell Bird Rise apart: elevation without being perched on a hillside, all-day sun, privacy, land, expansive views and a home with genuine warmth, all within easy reach of Picton, Waikawa and the Marlborough Sounds.
For a permanent home, a Marlborough base, or somewhere to bring family and friends together, this is a property designed for a very good life.
