Story

Nestled on the lower slopes of Mt. Kariori, with elevated, panoramic views stretching from the Tasman Sea in front to the contoured sea hills across the distant harbour, The Glass House at Block 295 is an inspired sanctuary where the changing light and weather of the famous west coast with its vast horizons can be experienced in luxurious surroundings. This custom-designed, open-plan living space with floor to ceiling glass exterior is a tribute to the spectacular seascape and tranquility offered by the rolling mountain and native bush to the rear.

Stay at this quiet, exclusive, self-contained residence with its privacy, premium furnishings and uninterrupted vista and immerse yourself in a truly idyllic escape. On the deck you can enjoy casual dining in the outdoor entertainment area or relax in the infinity pool, which has underwater lighting. Both the master bedroom with its large en suite and the second double room are positioned to make the most of the elevation and glass frontage, allowing for full appreciation of indolent mornings and enchanting night skies, while providing dark blinds for sleeping. A stylish, modern kitchen and lounge area, ideal for entertaining or unwinding, further enhances the residence’s sophisticated décor.

We want your stay to be as harmonious and convenient as you deserve and so endeavor to fulfill your every need, providing superior linen, elegant plate-ware and New Zealand produce. Other facilities include a second double room, bathroom, barbeque, wifi Internet connection and sound system controlled by the in-house iPad. When you stroll through the property you’ll discover the rural surroundings, vegetable garden and juvenile orchard or you can climb to the top of the lifestyle block to get even more impressive views.

The amenities of the area include world-renowned surf breaks, spectacular beaches, native reserves as well as cafes, restaurants and boutiques in Raglan. The combination of the retreat’s elevated platform and sense of space, fused with the constantly changing light and colour of the dramatic west coast, provides both a serene breathing space and an inspiring stay.

Make some days you’ll value forever at Block 295.
