7 Heipipi Drive, Esk Hills Estate, Eskdale, Napier, Hawke's Bay, New Zealand

Exceptional architecture, an elevated setting and breathtaking views come together in this architecturally designed home, positioned within the prestigious Esk Hills Estate. Designed by an award-winning architect as his own home, it was thoughtfully conceived to embrace its surroundings, capturing sweeping views across the Esk Valley to the ocean and Mahia Peninsula. The quality of the home was recognised with a Gold standard in the 2017 Master Builder House of the Year.

At the heart of the home, a beautifully considered designer kitchen with bespoke joinery connects effortlessly with the generous open-plan living and dining spaces. Expansive glazing draws in natural light and ensures the remarkable outlook is part of everyday living, while polished concrete floors add contemporary appeal. The recent addition of ducted air conditioning further enhances year-round comfort.

Privately positioned, the primary suite features a walk-in wardrobe, ensuite and direct courtyard access. Two further double bedrooms and a family bathroom provide excellent accommodation for family or guests.

Outdoor living has been thoughtfully positioned to make the most of the setting throughout the day. A covered patio and sheltered courtyard provide inviting spaces for entertaining, relaxing and taking in the expansive views. Spectacular sunrises can be enjoyed from every room in the home, bringing the outlook to life from the beginning of each day. Mature, architecturally landscaped gardens surround the home, attracting abundant birdlife and complementing the striking architecture. The established garden also offers a productive side, with three varieties of fruiting apple trees and a fruiting plum tree, together with younger stone fruit, citrus trees and passionfruit vines planted last year.

An integral double garage has recently been carpeted and enhanced with the addition of a heat pump. Currently configured partly as an office, it provides a warm and comfortable area with excellent flexibility for working from home, hobbies or garage. Ample off-street parking adds further practicality, while concept plans are available for those who may wish to explore extending the home in the future.

Life within Esk Hills Estate offers much more than an exceptional home. A friendly neighbourhood atmosphere complements the Estate’s shared amenities, which include a private tennis court, pavilion and approximately nine kilometres of native bush walking trails. Wineries, local produce, Hawke’s Bay Airport, Ahuriri and Napier CBD are all within easy reach.

This is a distinctive property where considered architecture, extraordinary views and an enviable lifestyle come together beautifully. Watch the property video for a closer look or join us for a viewing to truly appreciate this exceptional home and its remarkable setting.
