Rahimoana, Eagle’s Nest, Russell, New Zealand

Set on a high bluff overlooking the North Island’s Bay of Islands, this four-bedroom, 12,000-square-foot villa (one of five on a private 75-acre property) is a modernist’s dream. Sliding glass panels and barely-there supports give the feeling that nature has simply been framed. The villa comes with surround-sound technology, a home theater with a ten-foot screen, a sauna, an outdoor hot tub and 85-foot infinity pool, and a private hiking trail to a private beach. Need extra motivation to head outdoors? Fitness expert Derrin Farnell (one of the top-rated personal trainers in the country) is on call to give you the pep you need. For the more motor-minded, a Porsche Cayenne is also supplied—perfect for exploring the area’s winding coastal roads. eaglesnest.co.nz
