11 Fairlie Grove, Te Puna, Western Bay Of Plenty

Seascapes and Sunsets at Pohutukawa Point

Welcome to 11 Fairlie Grove, a commanding waterfront residence set on what the original Snodgrass family recognised as the most exceptional position on the peninsula. The property offers the space and connection to nature, without the workload, or strict timetables, of caring for farms, orchards, or larger lifestyle properties.
Perched above the harbour and framed by magnificent pōhutukawa, this expansive home architecturally designed by Peter Lockhead, captures sweeping north-facing water views that follow you from room to room. From the moment you arrive, the home reveals itself with quiet confidence, a striking entrance opening into light-filled interiors where space, comfort and coastal beauty come together effortlessly.
Daily life here unfolds around the water. Sunlight moves gently through the open living spaces, drawing your eye to the harbour beyond. The beautifully appointed kitchen, complete with double ovens, engineered stone island and generous benches, forms the heart of the home, connecting seamlessly to the living and dining areas designed for shared meals, laughter and relaxed gatherings. The gas fires creates a wonderful ambience. An adjacent second lounge offers a peaceful retreat when a quieter moment is called for.
The master suite provides a private sanctuary, opening to a sun-drenched deck where morning coffee is accompanied by the calm rhythm of the harbour. A second bedroom or office, powder room, laundry and internal-access garage complete this level.
Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms and a family bathroom are separated by a relaxed landing that opens to a balcony with breathtaking water views, an inviting third living space to watch the tides shift throughout the day.
Below, a 75sqm internal-access carpeted garage and workshop connect to a 25sqm rumpus room, perfect as a gym or independent teen retreat. A powder room and generous storeroom, easily converted to a wine cellar, add further versatility.
Outdoors, the lifestyle is pure waterfront magic. Evenings by the outdoor pizza oven, playtime with the children on the lawn, soaking in the spa beneath the stars, or simply stepping through your private gate to launch a kayak and glide across the quiet harbour waters.
Here, every day is shaped by light, space and the gentle rhythm of life by the water
