193 Pacific Ocean, Tairua, Thames-Coromandel, Waikato

Nothing says holiday lifestyle and ultimate escape like this 4872sqm block of ocean-locked land on Slipper Island (Whakahau) off the east coast of New Zealand's North Island. Renowned for its natural beauty, green hills and valleys, lush vegetation, white-sand beaches and glistening blue waters, the Coromandel is blessed with hundreds of hideaways - and this is one of the best. It embodies everything that makes the area a famed destination.

Leave the world behind and venture into paradise. The island's sub-tropical microclimate is easy to warm to and its privacy is treasured. A mere 15-minute boat ride from Tairua is all it takes to immerse yourself in peace and panoramic views. The beauty is all-encompassing. Days begin and end with stunning ocean views, and where better to enjoy the outlook than on this hill-top section where you can be king or queen of the castle.

Current infrastructure serves basic needs, allowing owners to be on hand while their dream home comes to life. Alternatively, various accommodations options are available at Slipper Island Resort. Excellent cellular coverage makes it easy to set up base and work from home in an enviable environment. With section access via the southern bay where mooring is available, trips to the mainland are quick and easy. A summer New World grocery service delivers to the island.

Halcyon days will be spent swimming, beachcombing, kayaking, fishing, boating and relaxing. You'll be lulled by lapping ocean waters and entertained by bird antics and song. Marine life and fishing in the iconic Alderman Islands archipelago are a short boat trip.

It's not every day an opportunity like this presents itself. Seize the moment.
