Three dwellings and substantial shedding

Some properties offer a home. This one offers a way of life.

Set in the quaint farming village of Arapuni, this substantial lifestyle holding includes three dwellings and substantial shedding in a private position. Delivering on space, privacy and infrastructure on a genuinely rare scale — with the Maungatautari native reserve on your doorstep, Lake Arapuni around the corner, and rural vistas in every direction.

Arapuni village and its excellent coffee are ten minutes away. Pukeatua primary school sits directly across the road. Te Awamutu is a easy 25-minute run for the big shop, with Matamata and Putaruru equally accessible — country living, without the compromise.

Dual electric gates welcome you home, leading through an established grove of native trees — private, calming, and beautifully backlit at dusk — to a sealed turning bay set well back from the road.

The shedding here is a showstopper: parking for up to six vehicles, with overheight doors, an inbuilt hoist, three-phase power, garage carpet and room to spare for a truck. Built for cars, boats, machinery or business — this is shedding on another level.

The main residence, built in 2017, is brick, double-glazed and low-maintenance. Set amongst flat lawns with uninterrupted views to Mount Maungatautari and the surrounding farmland. Four bedrooms include a private primary suite with ensuite and walk-in robe, plus a dedicated office, two living areas opening to a substantial covered deck, and a kitchen with walk-in pantry. Ducted, zoneable heating and cooling, a Marantz sound system, and full app control of heating, cooling, security, sound and lighting make this a genuinely smart home — backed by a generator for total peace of mind.

A second dwelling, built in 2021 by Versatile, sits privately apart from the main home. Three bedrooms across the home and sleepout, two bathrooms, double glazing, ducted heating and cooling, and its own double garage — ideal for extended family, multi-generational living, or an income opportunity.

A self-contained studio cabin adds further accommodation, with living and bedroom combined, full kitchen and bathroom — and the flexibility to relocate if required.

Further farm-style shedding, a container, and four paddocks complete the offering.

Please note: the vendors' price expectations have shifted. Any previous price guidance should be disregarded — this is a genuine opportunity.

Privacy. Space. Infrastructure without compromise. Opportunities of this calibre in such a gorgeous rural setting do not come around often — contact us today.

Prime lifestyle home and income opportunity

Just a stone’s throw west of the Kaikohe township sits this exceptional 4.8815 hectare (more or less) lifestyle property, positioned in the heart of a well-established 600 tree avocado orchard. Our vendor is finally motivated to retire after numerous years of management by herself.

The spacious three-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom home offers generous living throughout, including large bedrooms, an open plan kitchen and dining, a separate rumpus room, and a sun filled conservatory. My favourite position in the home is the living room with an impressive Metro fireplace, makes for cosy carefree, relaxing space after the days end.

Outdoor living is a standout feature, with expansive decking area coming off the dining area and leads straight out to the under-deck swimming pool perfect for summer relaxation. Imagine sitting having an afternoon drink after a day’s work in the orchard watching the kids do 'manu’s' into the pool!

The orchard is well maintained and is supported by Kiripaka loam soil, a wonderful fertile free draining volcanic soil and all have been pruned and trimmed ready to go! An excellent range of machinery and equipment, including two orchard tractors (one only two years old), a large ride-on lawn mower, hydraladda, quad, and much more to list. Water is not an issue, with a water bore onsite, with water tests available for water quality checking.

The age of the trees range from 6 to 23 years old and supplying both export and local markets, this is a rare chance to secure a thriving horticultural operation with strong future potential, especially with the predicted shortage in overseas markets next year. I have projected figures for the orchard available on request.

A superb prospect, a 'turnkey or going concern' of lifestyle, income, and location — in my eyes, I see it being a perfect opportunity for a family run business and being so close to town for schooling and work as well.

Two options to make it yours!

With two purchase options available - purchase the land on its own for $1,600,000 or purchase the complete property including the existing tiny homes - Kauri Creek offers the flexibility to create the lifestyle that best suits your vision. There are very few places left where children can spend their days exploring streams, building huts in the bush, cooling off in crystal-clear water and growing up surrounded by nature. Kauri Creek offers exactly that.

Nestled on approximately 12 hectares in the heart of Marahau, this remarkable property feels worlds away from the pressures of modern life, yet remains within easy reach of Richmond and Nelson and only minutes from the gateway to the Abel Tasman National Park.

The land tells a story of restoration, stewardship and connection to nature. Native trees planted over many years now attract an abundance of birdlife, while a crystal-clear creek with a sandy bottom winds through the property, feeding a series of picturesque natural pools that become the centre of summer memories. Boardwalk bridges cross the water, pathways weave through native bush, and elevated paddocks capture beautiful views towards the sea and coastline.

This is a property designed for those who dream of a different way of living.

For families seeking a more sustainable and alternative lifestyle, the combination of productive grazing land, established infrastructure, reliable water supply, native plantings, and the option to purchase the property complete with the existing tiny homes provides an opportunity to create a way of life that is increasingly difficult to find. Particularly appealing to those who homeschool their children, the property offers a unique environment where learning extends beyond the classroom and into nature itself. Children can learn from the land, animals and surrounding environment, while parents enjoy the privacy, freedom, and self-sufficiency that come with owning a property of this scale.

For buyers choosing the complete property, the existing tiny homes provide flexibility rarely available in today's market. Currently, two tiny homes hold consent for residential use of up to two months per year and are connected to a consented wastewater system. Future owners may wish to explore obtaining further consents for permanent residential use, subject to the relevant council approvals. Whether accommodating extended family, creating guest accommodation, or establishing a private retreat, the property offers exceptional versatility and future potential.

For those seeking a holiday retreat or future retirement destination, Marahau continues to be one of New Zealand's most desirable coastal locations. The beaches, boating opportunities, walking tracks, kayaking, and natural beauty of the Abel Tasman attract visitors from around the world, while the property's unique setting provides a peaceful sanctuary away from the crowds. It is the perfect base from which to launch the boat, spend the day exploring the golden bays and secluded coves of the Abel Tasman, or head out on the jetski for unforgettable adventures with family and friends.

Properties such as this are exceptionally rare, offering a combination of usable land, native bush, water, privacy, and flexibility. With a consented building platform already in place and valid until 2029, this could be the perfect opportunity to create your own Grand Designs-inspired home in one of New Zealand's most sought-after lifestyle destinations.

With eight fenced paddocks, established farm infrastructure, consented wastewater systems, irrigation, sheds, storage, and a secure water supply already in place, much of the hard work has already been done.

Kauri Creek is not simply a property. It is an opportunity to create a lifestyle centred around nature, family, wellbeing, and freedom. A place where mornings begin with birdsong, afternoons are spent beside the creek, and every season brings new reasons to appreciate the land.
