Defined as much by outlook as by design, this contemporary residence sits high in Moncks Bay above Sumner, drawing a panoramic sweep across Pegasus Bay and the Kaikouras into daily view. Completed in 2020, the Abodo Vulcan finish, inspired by the Japanese Shou Sugi Ban style, creates a dramatic first impression. Thoughtfully framing a flexible two-level layout arranged for practicality as much as presence, with an unbroken connection to its coastal surroundings.
Oak flooring runs beneath a wall of glazing in the open-plan living and dining room, while terraced decks carry the experience outdoors, keeping sea and sky in play around the striking presence of an outdoor fire. The kitchen takes centre stage with a streamlined finish, its scullery and premium appliances pairing precision with ease for both everyday living and entertaining at scale.
Linked to the dining area by a double-sided gas fire, the second lounge introduces a moodier layer of living, equally at home as a media room for movie nights, a work-from home base, or a retreat of its own.
The primary suite holds a privileged position on the ground floor, combining a walk-in wardrobe and tiled ensuite with an outlook that elevates every morning into the extraordinary. A feature staircase leads to the upper level, where three additional bedrooms and a family bathroom provide privacy and flexibility for family life.
A separate laundry, guest powder room, and in-slab hydronic heating on the ground floor accompany an extra-deep internal-access double garage with valuable off-street parking, reinforcing the home's everyday capability, while landscaping shapes the section without drawing attention from the view. Above it all yet minutes from village life, the sand and surf, this residence captures Sumner at its most private and panoramic.
