Uninterrupted Panoramic Harbour Views!

Take advantage of this rare opportunity to secure a lifestyle in sought-after Seagrove Road. This beautiful architecturally designed home commands panoramic views over the Manukau Harbour in rural South/West Auckland. Elevated above the harbour on 5.2 hectares of mostly flat, well fenced land, this one of a kind home was almost completely re-built in 2006. The renovation, designed by award winning architect Steven Lloyd, is as solid in its construction as it is rich in timeless appeal. With a nod to mid-century modern style, the tilt slab concrete and cedar exterior compliments the light-filled, modern interior. Soaring ceilings supported by over-engineered steel portal frames create an impressive sense of strength and space. Solid American Oak flooring and built-in bespoke furnishings follow a mid-century vibe, and unique features include a 4 sided ceramic glass enclosed fireplace, and basalt and stainless steel bathrooms.

The 345sqm floor area allows for generous rooms, the living wing incorporates a large open plan kitchen, family room, with dining and living room surrounding the impressive fireplace. American Oak window seats, cabinetry and benches echo the warmth of the flooring and provide abundant storage. A library/office includes built-in shelving and cabinets and completes the living wing.

In the accommodation wing the master suite enjoys uninterrupted views of the harbour, and continues the theme with American Oak built-in wardrobes, cabinetry and bed-head, the unique basalt and stainless steel ensuite bathroom features a large pivot window so a shower or bath in the open air can be enjoyed. Three more generous family bedrooms are positioned to take advantage of sea and rural views and all include built-in wardrobes and cabinetry. A self-contained guest bed/sitting room is a more recent addition, but follows the style of the rest of the house and includes a tiled ensuite with accessible shower, hand-rails and non-slip flooring. Two further family bathrooms are also finished in basalt and stainless steel with polished concrete flooring; a separate utility/laundry room completes the main house.

Extensive outdoor patios and a covered outdoor living and bbq area provide the perfect setting for relaxing or entertaining while enjoying the stunning views.

Complementing the home is a substantial shed, 224sqm architecturally designed and built in the same style as the house, featuring tilt slab concrete and cedar exterior. Tucked into the northern end of the space and taking in the panoramic harbour views is a self contained guest/hobby space featuring a mezzanine bedroom, kitchenette and bathroom. A dedicated garden shed and storage area complete the northern end of the shed. Sliding cedar hangar doors open to reveal the 5.6 metre high workspace, which includes a vehicle hoist and overhead crane, and provision for 3 phase power. Whether it is extensive storage and parking for your collection, a space to create and tinker, or a giant man-cave you won't have to compromise on space!

The land is divided into 5 well-fenced paddocks, a productive orchard, raised vegetable and herb gardens, and along the western boundary a bank of developing native bush and a natural duck pond. Further infrastructure includes water troughs for all paddocks, cattle yards and loading ramp, 2 bay woodshed, haybarn and a 40ft container for extra storage. Water security is ensured with a shareholding in a bore which feeds all outdoor taps and troughs, and supplements the rainwater supply.

Seagrove Road is within easy reach of Waiau Pa Village shops and Waiau Pa School (full primary years 1-8) and Waiau Pa kindergarten, and a short drive from Clarks Beach and its amenities, including an 18 hole golf course and golf club, bowling club, restaurants and take-aways, safe swimming beaches, yacht club and boat ramps, playground and skate park.

Secluded and private with breathtaking views, this beautiful home and land offers an exceptional lifestyle in one of Auckland's most sought-after locations.

Big Land. Big Privacy. Big Potential. Don’t Wait.

This is 5.82ha (14.38 Acres) more or less, of pure lifestyle — rolling to inclined land, native bush, stream, space to breathe, with views that hit you, sunsets that stop you. Peace you can feel the moment you step out of the car.

Three bedrooms, a proper master with ensuite, neatly proportioned kitchen, open concept dining and living, natural light everywhere, heat pump, log burner — it’s clean, simple, sorted.

Outside, the deck immediately overlooks the paddocks, add in a generous sized shed, plus, separate stand-alone garage (c/w laundry), this property has flexibility suiting most needs!

The land is mixed in nature, giving you options: graze stock, run a hobby farm, or just enjoy the freedom. Native bush with a walking track drops down to the Puarauroa Stream — a private retreat like this you won’t find again at this scale.
All this, and you’re an easy commute to Bombay School, pre-school, service centre with fast food outlets, cafes, fuel stations, grocery stores, and the southern motorway.

This is the lifestyle holding buyers fight for. Space, bush, sheds, views, potential — it ticks every box and it will move. If you’re serious, act now. Properties like this don’t wait for you.

9.5ha Waterfront Opportunity–Unlock the Potential

Rarely does an opportunity of this scale and versatility come to market.

Set on approximately 9.5ha of waterfront land on the Weiti River, 80 Messenger Road offers an exceptional combination of land, substantial accommodation, private waterfront access and multiple avenues for future development.

The 430sqm main residence, built in 1976, features four bedrooms, two bathrooms and multiple living areas, plus a self-contained one-bedroom flat with separate entry and internal access. A second dwelling provides an additional two bedrooms and one bathroom, creating flexibility for extended family, rental income or future business use.

The property also enjoys a private jetty (replacement required) and a pair or mooring piles, and an outstanding waterfront setting.

For developers, investors and entrepreneurs, the scale of the landholding presents numerous possibilities to explore, including:

  • Potential subdivision and development
  • Boutique lodge or accommodation
  • Airbnb / short-term accommodation
  • Wedding or event venue
  • Lifestyle retreat
  • Multi-generational living

The main residence is in good condition but would benefit from renovation and modernisation, offering the opportunity to add value and create an impressive waterfront home.

Having remained in the same family for three generations, the property is now being offered to the market as a deceased estate. Purchasers are encouraged to undertake their own independent due diligence.

9.5ha. Waterfront. Two dwellings. Private jetty. Multiple possibilities.

An exceptional opportunity to acquire a property with genuine scale and the potential to create something truly unique.

All development, subdivision and commercial opportunities are subject to the relevant planning requirements, consents and approvals.

Tuki Tuki views at Euchre Farm

Beautifully elevated above the Tuki Tuki river and surrounded by some of Hawke's Bay's most captivating scenery, this 6,692sqm (more or less) site offers a unique proposition within the exclusive Euchre Farm development. Wake to breathtaking views across the river flats and ever-changing landscapes, with the dramatic ridgelines of the iconic Te Mata Peak Range providing a stunning backdrop for your future home.

Gently contoured and with a generously proportioned build platform, the site presents an outstanding opportunity to create a home that takes full advantage of its elevated position, privacy, and impressive sense of space. Established trees enhance the setting, while sensible covenants and architectural guidelines have been thoughtfully considered to protect the character of the site and rural surrounds.

Offering a lifestyle that is increasingly difficult to find, the carefully planned and beautifully maintained Euchre Farm development is renowned for its quality homes, expansive open spaces, and seamless connection to the natural environment. Residents enjoy access to tranquil walking and riding trails privately placed across 85 hectares of picturesque pastoral landscape, leading to pristine riverfront - an inviting setting for fly fishing and picnics along the river banks.

Despite its peaceful rural atmosphere, convenience remains close at hand. The vibrant Havelock North Village is only ten minutes away, with internationally acclaimed Craggy Range Winery just along the road, and the beaches of the Hawke's Bay coast are within easy reach. A wonderful opportunity to secure a premium site in one of Hawke's Bay's most prestigious lifestyle enclaves, this is worthy of your attention. A must-view to be truly appreciated; contact Gretchen today to discuss.

Contemporary country living, residential zoning

Discover a truly special lifestyle property where modern contemporary design meets the relaxed spirit of the Kiwi countryside.

Set on approximately five acres in the heart of the rural village of Waikari, this architecturally designed home offers a rare combination of space, privacy, productivity and residential zoning - providing genuine flexibility and potential for the future.

Completed in 2010, the home was designed for effortless living, with a focus on functionality, low maintenance and a strong connection between the indoors and outdoors. Fully insulated and featuring double-glazed thermal-break windows, it is designed for year-round comfort, complemented by a log burner on wetback for the cooler months.

A large, sheltered courtyard provides an exceptional outdoor living space - perfect for entertaining, long summer lunches or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings.

Beyond the home, the established gardens and hazelnut orchard create a productive and picturesque setting, complemented by a variety of mature fruit trees and areas of woodland. The property is fully irrigated, with its own established bore as well as mains water, providing excellent water infrastructure for the extensive grounds and orchard.

Country living with village convenience.

Although the property enjoys a wonderfully peaceful rural feel, it sits right within the heart of Waikari. Waikari Primary School is directly opposite, while the village offers a local medical centre, cafes, garages and practical services, as well as the historic Star Hotel.

The location provides an appealing balance between country and convenience, with Christchurch within easy reach and Hanmer Springs and the wider North Canterbury region close enough to enjoy regularly.

Lifestyle today, potential for tomorrow.

The residential zoning and approximately five-acre landholding add another dimension to this property. Alongside its appeal as an established lifestyle property, it may also attract buyers interested in exploring future development opportunities, subject to council requirements and approvals.

For those looking to downsize from a larger rural property, this offers the opportunity to retain space, gardens, an established orchard and a genuine country lifestyle without taking on a large farm. For families, lifestyle buyers or those looking for a property with room to evolve, the possibilities are equally compelling.

Private, productive and beautifully presented, this is a property that needs to be experienced to be truly appreciated.

How do you like them apples?

Because if you like ‘em – and you’re also looking for somewhere to build – then here’s one hell of an opportunity.

This well positioned and very productive 7-and-a-half-hectare organic apple orchard comes serviced, with both power and domestic water, allowing someone to build a home as well as make a living.

Certified organic, the orchard boasts 12,485 Galaxy, Fuji, and Jazz trees, which were planted in either 2008 or 2018. If orcharding isn’t your jam, the existing owners, and their team, will manage the entire operation for you - from the fruit on the trees – to the markets overseas.

The orchard also offers plenty of reliable water through the Earnscleugh Irrigation Company, an irrigation pond, a track, a storage shed, garage, and pump shed.

Situated just 4 kilometres from historic Clyde, with magnificent views of the often-snowcapped Dunstan Ranges, this Central Otago property would make a great place to live, grow, and thrive.

Fraser Road – your future starts here.

Park-like privacy and considerable potential make a powerful pairing at this cinematic 12.4-hectare property in Fernside, where an established country estate comes with the valuable advantage of subdivision consent.

Already approved for subdivision into three evenly sized parcels, the property puts a defined future pathway alongside the exceptional lifestyle it delivers today.

A tree-lined driveway makes an impressive approach through mature gardens and spectacular grounds, setting the residence within a landscape of breathtaking natural beauty.

Spacious and modernised while retaining its classic character, the home carries Otago schist from exterior feature work to a striking fireplace in the formal lounge, while the expansive open-plan kitchen, dining and living is immersed in natural light and garden outlooks, with direct outdoor flow extending the living into its landscaped surroundings.

Ideally oriented to the north-west, outdoor entertaining captures hours of afternoon sunshine, with a louvre putting shade on standby when the temperature climbs.

From three bedrooms and an office to a four-bedroom configuration, the accommodation can readily shift to suit, with the master featuring an en-suite and walk-in wardrobe.

Offering far more than secure parking, the detached double garage incorporates a sleepout or studio that can turn its hand to guests, hobbies or home-based work beyond the home.

The infrastructure is as extensive as the acreage, with an American-style barn, three-bay garage complex, high-clearance lock-up barn, large utility shed and yards covering an exceptional range of requirements, from parking and projects to rural pursuits.

Position proves another major drawcard, securing a prized Fernside setting with the preschool alongside, the local school just minutes away, and nearby Rangiora putting the wider line-up of shopping, dining and amenities close to home.

A remarkable estate in its own right, the property gives buyers the rare privilege of enjoying it in its entirety while deciding its future.

A country estate with city-side convenience

Deadline Sale - 1pm, Wed 28 Oct 2026 (unless sold prior)

Grand in scale and geared for every generation, this 4.0875-hectare estate takes luxury lifestyle living into a larger league through a six-bedroom line-up, independent accommodation, resort-level recreation and acreage comprehensively equipped from paddocks to property.

The home has evolved and expanded since its 2002 beginnings, gaining a self-contained west wing in 2010 and a purpose-built indoor pool pavilion in 2021, broadening the residence from a substantial family home to a fully fledged lifestyle estate.

A recent round of upgrades has sharpened the finish throughout, led by a brand-new kitchen and scullery, new carpet and a complete interior and exterior repaint.

Multiple living zones turn the home’s considerable 575sqm dimensions into an everyday advantage, giving family life more room to move and entertaining a far bigger backdrop.

That social focus carries outdoors, where a deck beneath twin electric louvre roofs puts dining and drinks comfortably under cover, while vast lawns, established planting, a water feature and a stream give the grounds genuine country character.

Another of the latest additions lifts leisure to another level, with a self-cleaning indoor pool joined by a games room, bathroom, kitchenette and log fire, creating a fully equipped year-round destination for recreation and entertaining.

Six bedrooms, five bathrooms and a study or seventh bedroom give the main residence extraordinary family capacity, with the sheer scale to absorb a full household, extended family or frequent guests without sacrificing privacy or space. The west wing extends that advantage through The Meadows, a fully self-contained two-bedroom residence with its own kitchen, bathroom, living room and double garage, giving occupants complete independence while retaining proven short-term accommodation potential.

An extensive 32-panel solar system puts power production firmly on-site, while three heat pumps, underfloor heating, a wood fire and gas fire cover comfort from every angle.

Beyond the house, the property is equipped to work every inch of its acreage, with deer-fenced paddocks, a two-bay barn, stock shelters, a pump shed and four dog kennels featuring runs and an exercise area give the lifestyle side considerable substance, while dedicated irrigation keeps both paddocks and lawns efficiently managed.

Country scale comes with city-side convenience, with Marshland five minutes away, the Pegasus Bay coastline around 10 minutes by car and the central city little more than 20 minutes from home, completing an estate where land, luxury and lifestyle living know no limits.

184 Butcher Road is an exceptionally well-thought-out modern lifestyle property where quality, presentation and practicality come together beautifully.

Set on four hectares (more or less) of landscaped grounds, the 295sqm Bayline home was completed around 2021 and offers four bedrooms, a dedicated office and excellent additional storage, generous open-plan living and dining, a separate lounge/media room and excellent indoor-outdoor flow. Considered interiors and quality finishes feature throughout, including a well-appointed kitchen with scullery, tiled bathrooms with underfloor heating and a highly practical laundry/mudroom arrangement connecting through to the master ensuite.

The outdoor entertaining area is a standout, able to be fully enclosed through winter or opened in summer to connect with the expansive irrigated lawn and large outdoor fireplace. Established native planting enhances the privacy and setting, while access to the stream provides another attractive space to enjoy the property. An app-controlled irrigation system services the lawns and gardens.

Outside, the property is equally impressive. The land is divided into approximately 11 well-fenced paddocks with a combination of post-and-rail and post-and-batten fencing, complemented by a 50m x 25m post-and-rail arena, five-bay stable complex with hot water wash-down facilities, tack room, sheep and calf yards, and a substantial implement shed with three-phase power and adjoining 40-foot container.

Currently used for calf rearing, horses and other lifestyle livestock, the property offers genuine versatility for equestrian buyers, families wanting more space, rural professionals or those simply seeking a beautifully presented home with excellent shedding and practical rural facilities.

A separate two-bedroom, one-bathroom sleepout with kitchenette may also be available by negotiation.

Conveniently located near Reporoa and within easy reach of both Taupō and Rotorua, 184 Butcher Road delivers a quality modern home, excellent rural facilities, privacy and beautifully established grounds in one highly considered lifestyle package.

Some properties simply have more to offer, and this Maungatapere home is one of them. Set on 4.1020 hectares (more or less), the property is private and peaceful, yet just 17 minutes from central Whangarei, with Poroti close by.

The three-bedroom, two-bathroom brick and tile home has been tastefully updated, with a stone kitchen island, Fisher & Paykel appliances and vaulted ceilings that give the living areas a real sense of space. French doors open onto a large entertainer's deck, perfect for weekend gatherings or a quiet evening taking in the view. A wood burner and two heat pumps keep things comfortable through the seasons, and a separate laundry and internal carport add everyday practicality, with the carport doubling easily as a rumpus room, home office or fourth bedroom.

The grounds have even more on offer, with a small vineyard and established plantings adding a point of difference you don't often find. Open land allows for grazing or further planting, while roughly 3,000sqm of fully fenced grounds, with fencing over six feet high, gives children and pets a safe space to roam. Six bays of shedding, a lock up workshop, double garage and covered parking complete the property, with a tractor and ride on mower included in the sale.

Just four minutes to Maungatapere village and moments from Poroti, the property is zoned for Mangakahia School and Pompallier Catholic College, with Maungatapere School also nearby.

'Middlewood' - country ease, village convenience

Set amongst 1.6ha (more or less) of beautifully established grounds on the edge of the village, this exceptional lifestyle property offers the space, privacy, and versatility so many families seek, yet rarely find so close to Havelock North. Mature specimen trees, sweeping lawns, productive gardens, and fenced paddocks combine to create a setting that feels more like a private park than a lifestyle block, while recent enhancements ensure the property is ready to be enjoyed from day one.

Designed for family living and entertaining, the charming Australian-inspired bungalow sits comfortably within its surroundings, framed by wide verandas and picturesque garden outlooks from almost every room. At the heart of the home is a beautifully renovated kitchen featuring quality cabinetry and appliances, sleek stone benchtops, and stunning original matai flooring. This space flows seamlessly to the generous dining area with direct access to the outdoors. Multiple living spaces provide flexibility for everyday family life and entertaining, including a large separate living room with open fireplace and rural outlooks, and a light-filled family room overlooking the gardens and pool.

Accommodation is well thought-out, with room for family and guests. The spacious primary suite features a stylish tiled ensuite and tranquil garden views, while three additional bedrooms include built-in wardrobes, and there's a well-appointed family bathroom and separate lavatory. Throughout, the home is beautifully presented, offering an appealing balance of character, comfort, and contemporary functionality. Ducted air-conditioning and a separate laundry complete this family friendly home.

Outside, a stunning heated salt-water pool with sleek glass fencing and generous deck and terrace surround forms the focal point for summer living, perfectly complemented by an inviting outdoor entertaining area with a fireplace, creating a wonderful gathering place for family celebrations and relaxed evenings with friends. Expansive lawns offer an abundance of space for children to play, explore, and enjoy the freedom that only acreage can provide. Established gardens, a potting shed, productive planting areas, and paddocks suitable for ponies, livestock, or grazing further enhance the lifestyle on offer.

Offering additional flexibility is a separate cottage-style self-contained sleepout (not consented), offering living space, kitchen facilities, bathroom, and two bedrooms, ideal for extended family, guests, teenagers, or work-from-home options. Practicality is equally well covered with a double garage incorporating a generous workshop area, along with excellent shed and barn storage for equipment.

Extending the possibilities, resource consent has also been issued for a supplementary dwelling - with a formed house site and driveway already completed, and power connection in place. Plans are available for a smart 66sqm cottage, positioned on an elevated site at the front of the property with separate driveway access, providing an attractive opportunity for intergenerational living, additional accommodation or future value enhancement.

Combining beautifully established grounds, a thoughtfully renovated family home, exceptional outdoor living, and seldom found future flexibility, this is a lifestyle property that offers both immediate enjoyment and long-term possibilities, all within easy reach of Havelock North and Hastings. Well-regarded schools are close by, and the much-loved Birdswoods cafe, gallery, and sweet shop is just down the road. Our motivated vendors are downsizing, so don't miss your opportunity to view.

Large Scale Lifestyle Opportunity

There is something extremely valuable about having room around you, and across 12.04 hectares (more or less), this Waerenga lifestyle property provides the scale to think bigger, plan ahead and shape the future you have in mind.

Larger than the traditional lifestyle block, yet without the commitment of a full farming operation, there is space here to make the land work for the way you want to live. This generous parcel of land opens up plenty of possibilities. Build your future home and allow room for the extras that can make country living so rewarding – horses in the paddocks, a few cattle or sheep, established gardens, substantial shedding, a swimming pool or simply enjoy the privacy and flexibility that comes with owning this much space. With thoughtful development, the land could also provide a useful return alongside the lifestyle, giving you the ability to make more of what you have.

For families, this generous property brings a different dimension to everyday life, with room for children to grow up around animals, explore the outdoors and enjoy the freedom of country living.

Waerenga delivers the space and freedom of country living while remaining well connected to the wider Waikato and Auckland regions. Waerenga School provides local primary schooling, with Te Kauwhata College catering for older students and school bus services along Falls Road offering the convenience of pickup at the gate. Te Kauwhata is also within easy reach for shops, cafés and everyday services.

Access to the Waikato Expressway provides an important connection north and south, allowing you to enjoy being off the beaten track while remaining connected to schooling, employment, major centres and an established rural community. Te Kauwhata is approximately 14 kilometres away, with Bombay approximately 35 kilometres, Hamilton approximately 60 kilometres and Auckland Airport approximately 71 kilometres from the property.

Bring your plans, explore the possibilities, and imagine the lifestyle you could create on 12.04 hectares (more or less).
