Heaven in Heartland Central Otago

It's a little taste of heaven in heartland Central Otago - perfectly positioned to take in the pristine plains, snow-capped Kakanui’s, and big, beautiful skies. A perfect place to ‘get away from it all’ but still live a luxurious lifestyle.
Kokonga Lodge - just over an hour from Dunedin - two hours from Queenstown - is arguably the jewel in Maniototo’s crown. A jewel that really could be anything you want it to be.
Set on more than 4 hectares, right beside the Otago Central Rail Trail, Kokonga boasts a number of outstanding buildings - mainly accommodation that could be for the night, or for the rest of your life.
The impressive lodge, which hugs an attractive 16 metre infinity pool, boasts six bedrooms - all with their own bathrooms - as well as a designer kitchen, open-plan dining-lounge and a second living room. Outside, by the pool, if it wasn’t for the iconic Central Otago views, you could be forgiven for thinking you were in Bali or Hawaii.
A short stroll through the gorgeous lawns and garden will take you to a delightful near new self-contained two bedroom cottage - featuring open plan kitchen, dining, living complete with an open fire and outside decking.
The old Kokonga School building, which has recently been refurbished to an exceptionally high standard, is now a one-bedroom one-bathroom “Owners residence”. The ‘classroom’, which continues Kokonga’s open-plan theme comes with a log burner for winter and great indoor-outdoor flow and decking for the warmer seasons. The mountain views from the large arched window in the modern kitchen are breathtaking.
The final piece of this entertainers dream puzzle is the ‘Woolshed Bar and Brewery’ - which could easily be the backdrop for an upcoming Speight’s ad - as well as a great place to park up for the night after a long day on the trail.
Kokonga Lodge - this glorious oasis where no expense has been spared - is currently being run as a boutique bed and breakfast, but with its nine bedrooms over three buildings, it really could be anything you want it to be.
Think a permanent home - for one or two families. A holiday home. Rail trail accommodation. A wedding venue. Corporate and team-building functions. Retreats, workshops, and wellness.
Think anything you like.
There is so much quality living, value and potential up for grabs here.

Lifestyle, land and location

Tender closing 1pm, Wed 26 Nov 2025

Occupying four hectares across from Prestons Park, this property delivers genuine lifestyle living just fifteen minutes from the central city.

Currently zoned Rural Urban Fringe and bordered by residential land on two sides, the property remains safeguarded as a city-side estate, yet any future zoning shifts would position it as a strategic land banking opportunity for investors with an eye to the city’s growth.

Settled among established trees and sweeping lawns, the two-level bungalow sits naturally within the landscape, defined by its classic lines and countryside character.

Its traditional framework of timber panelling, leadlights, and a fireplace remains intact, supported by a new roof, refreshed kitchen and modernised bathroom, where white subway tiles and chequerboard parquet flooring bring contemporary continuity to the design.

Post-earthquake works have included pile reinforcement and ground raising across the property, securing both stability and longevity.
The 223sqm layout favours family life and entertaining, with social spaces flowing naturally to the expansive Kwila deck that draws views across the wraparound lawn and shelter belt.

The ground floor centres on two living areas and the modernised kitchen, complemented by a laundry, foyer, and guest toilet, while the upper level gathers three bedrooms, a sunroom or single, a refreshed bathroom, plus a separate toilet.

Beyond the home, the property is fully equipped for lifestyle pursuits, with four-car garaging, horse stables, stock shelters and multiple utility sheds.

At the rear, the grounds overlook a council-owned wetland alive with ponds and birdlife, adding depth and dimension to the surroundings.

With easy access to schooling, recreation and local amenities, this is a lifestyle address defined by balance, where country outlooks meet city connection, its near-48-year ownership a measure of both permanence and possibility.

A Lifestyle Retreat with Extras

Nestled along the southern banks of the Mohaka River, this unique property stretches east to west, bordered naturally by the river itself, the historic Coach Road, and the Kaka Creek to the west. Dramatic cliffs frame much of the river offering both privacy and pleasant views. The land enjoys a sunny north-facing aspect, with natural shelter provided by surrounding hills and mature trees, lining the Mohaka Coast Road. Just a kilometre to the south lies the sea, a haven for surfcasting enthusiasts.

Perched above the river and Coach Road is a sturdy two bedroom Lockwood style cottage built in 2012. Thoughtfully positioned for privacy, it’s screened by trees and oriented to capture the sun. Fruit trees flourish around the home paddock, the eastern slope, and along the river cliff top, creating a lush and productive landscape. The cottages design ensures excellent insulation year-round, complemented by a wetback wood burner that efficiently heats water alongside the electric system.

Inside, the cottage features a warm and inviting open-plan layout. The kitchen is compact yet functional, with ample cabinetry, a freestanding oven, and generous bench space. The dining and living areas are open plan, anchored by timber walls and ceilings that reflect the classic Lockwood aesthetic. Two large glass sliding doors open onto the main deck, flooding the space with natural light and provide a connection to the outdoors. The bedrooms have built-in wardrobes and peaceful views of the surrounding greenery. A separate laundry area adds practicality, and the overall layout is ideal for comfortable year-round living. The main deck receives protection during the hotter months from permanently fixed shade sails, while the rear balcony is roofed for all-weather use.

A 64 m² shed offers secure storage and vehicle space, with an attached annex that serves as additional accommodation. This self-contained unit includes a kitchenette, bathroom, bedroom, and a comfortable living and dining area warmed by a freestanding Oregon pot belly stove. The undercover outdoor area extends the living and dining space. Nearby, a fenced, shaded area ensures pets have a safe space, while another fenced area behind the shed is evolving into a native bush sanctuary.

Water is sustainably sourced from runoff from both roofs into a tank, with a pump system drawing creek water to a concrete tank and troughs. The land is divided into seven main paddocks, with a central set of drafting yards, and water troughs for each paddock.

Since 1987, the property has been enriched with a diverse array of trees. Fruit trees include over ten mature stone and pip trees (plum, peach, pear, apple, quince and nectarine), seven citrus (lemon, grapefruit, tangerine), and more than 15 prolific feijoa trees, with recent additions like mulberries. Nut trees are abundant, featuring over 25 walnut trees planted before 1994 - yielding over 300kg this season - alongside pecan, chestnut, and hazel varieties. Timber trees, planted mainly on the slopes for wind protection include eucalypts (mostly saligna), Tasmanian blackwood, lusitanica cypress, and black walnut. Many are high-pruned to 8m or more, with some eucalypts and blackwoods now reaching milling maturity.

This beautifully positioned lifestyle property offers a harmonious blend of natural beauty, privacy, and productivity. With a comfortable, sun-filled Lockwood cottage, a versatile shed and annex, abundant fruit and nut trees, and mature timber plantings, it’s a self-sufficient haven ideal for those seeking a peaceful rural retreat with income potential and sustainable living.
