If mornings by the water and evenings under the trees sound like your kind of pace, this 2,953m² section at 748 Kenepuru Road is worth a closer look. Set in the Marlborough Sounds, it brings together a broad lawn, mature planting and an outlook that reaches across the water to bush-clad hills, creating a scenic lifestyle opportunity with real character.

The land already feels considered rather than bare. Open lawn gives you room to spread out, while clipped hedging and established trees create definition and shelter around the section. The road frontage and formed driveway make arrival easy and the open aspect lets the surrounding landscape do much of the talking.

Garden lovers will appreciate how much has already been shaped here. Layered planting, gravel paths, rock gardens and leafy pockets give the grounds texture and variety, with palms, flowering shrubs and mature trees adding colour through the seasons. It is the sort of setting made for slow morning coffees, pottering outdoors and quiet afternoons in the sun.

There is plenty of lawn for outdoor games, gardening or simply enjoying the breathing room, while the more intimate landscaped areas offer sheltered corners away from the open ground. A garden shed provides useful storage and the combination of greenery, water outlooks and nearby shoreline gives this section a distinctly Sounds feel.

Kenepuru Sound is known for boating, kayaking, fishing and walking, while Havelock serves as the nearest town for the wider Kenepuru and Pelorus Sounds area, with water-taxi connections available into the Sounds.
