There are properties that impress on arrival, and then there are those that continue to reveal themselves at every turn. This remarkable Martinborough lifestyle estate is firmly in the latter category – a beautifully curated retreat where architectural scale, resort-style living and established grounds come together just minutes from the village. An impressive stone entrance provides the first introduction, with a sweeping curved driveway winding through established olive grove and formal gardens before arriving at the extensively renovated residence. Private and beautifully presented, the setting immediately establishes a sense of open space and seclusion. At approximately 436 sq m, the main home has been transformed with entertaining at its heart. Expansive open-plan living centres around a bespoke designer kitchen with premium appliances, extensive cabinetry and substantial walk-in pantry. Multiple living zones allow family life and entertaining to unfold with ease, from formal dining and a relaxed snug or reading space to the north-west facing lounge, where an open fireplace and extensive glazing create warmth, light and connection with the outdoors. Four generous bedrooms include three with en-suite bathrooms, while the dedicated upstairs primary suite provides a private retreat with elevated views across the property. A separate office, games room, excellent storage and internal-access garaging further enhance the home's functionality. Outside, the lifestyle offering moves to another level. An inground swimming pool and spa create a private wellness retreat, while the sunken conversation area and central fire pit provide an exceptional setting for long evenings with family and friends. A full-sized tennis court, expansive lawns and mature landscaping complete an environment designed to be enjoyed throughout the seasons. Separate from the main residence, fully self-contained one-bedroom guest accommodation with an en-suite and kitchenette provides flexibility for visitors, extended family or accommodation income. A standalone double garage adds further storage and practicality. The established olive grove provides supplementary income, while existing resource consent offers future development or land-banking potential. Rarely does one property combine this level of privacy, scale and recreation so close to Martinborough. From mornings amongst the olives and afternoons beside the pool to evenings gathered around the fire, 136 Hinekura Road is an estate created not simply to admire, but to enjoy. Private viewings are encouraged and can be arranged at a time to suit.
