Serenity escape, privacy perfected

Set across 5.6510ha (more or less) of thoughtfully managed land, this superbly crafted residence was originally designed to operate as an exclusive lodge, yet it transitions seamlessly into a refined private estate.

The home has a presence that is both elegant and understated, offering substantial accommodation, excellent separation of spaces and a layout that supports a wide range of future uses. Some purchasers will be drawn to the property as a prestigious holiday home with a view to eventual permanent occupation, while others will immediately recognise the benefits of establishing their family life here from day one, creating memories that will endure for generations.

The residence itself is generous, well configured and immaculately cared for, with a level of construction and finish that ensures it will comfortably meet the needs of its owners for decades to come. Five suites, including a separate primary suite, are complemented by six bathrooms and a powder room, allowing family and guests to enjoy privacy without compromise. Formal and informal living areas include a gracious lounge, formal dining room and a large conservatory that draws in light and outlook throughout the day. High-quality fixtures, fittings and tiling reinforce the sense of quiet luxury that runs consistently through the home.

Beyond the residence, the grounds are a defining feature. Expansive lawns flow down toward the water’s edge, bordered by ponds and a natural stream that weaves through the property. A conservation-minded approach by the current owners has transformed the land into a true sanctuary, attracting abundant birdlife, including rare duck species. Portions of the land are paddocked, providing scope for stock or horses, while the house itself enjoys its own defined and private setting.

Practicality has not been overlooked. Double internal-access garaging is supplemented by further shedding suitable for vehicles, workshop and equipment storage, offering flexibility for those with lifestyle, recreational or business interests.

For purchasers seeking income potential, the four guest suites offer obvious scope for boutique accommodation, should one wish to revive or reimagine the property’s original lodge intent.

This is a rare offering: a sophisticated coastal estate that combines scale, serenity and versatility in an increasingly sought-after location.

Whether held as a legacy family property, a refined permanent residence or a future-focused lifestyle investment, it represents an opportunity that is seldom repeated in Opoutere.

Swannanoa’s sweet spot

Auction - From 11am, Thu 3 Sep 2026 (unless sold prior)
3 Deans Avenue, Christchurch

Generous grounds, family-sized proportions, and an easy approach to country living combine across 5,783sqm to strike the sweet spot between space and simplicity.

Mature hedging and established gardens establish the property's sense of arrival, creating a level of shelter, peace and seclusion that's become synonymous with Wetherfield Lane.

Solidly constructed and spanning 230sqm, the clean-cut design revolves around an open-plan kitchen, dining area and lounge, with a wood burner introducing warmth and atmosphere before an adjoining living room shifts the dynamic, bringing another dimension to entertaining and everyday routine.

Outdoor living circles the open-plan living spaces, with a wraparound patio following the sun before overlooking a generous sweep of lawn where a playground, swings, playhouse and trampoline give family life its own head start.

Four bedrooms and two bathrooms deliver long-term capability, led by a master suite with bi-fold access to its own patio, a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite. A family bathroom mirrors the same level of finish, while a dedicated laundry and carpeted internal-access double garage continue the home's functional focus.

Beyond, a paddock offers space for pets or a handful of animals, with a stock water race tracing the rear boundary and a new water tank adding further practicality to the property.

Walking distance from Mandeville Village, the local sports grounds and dog park, and with Rangiora and Christchurch both within comfortable reach, the location delivers the space of country living without losing touch with everyday convenience.

With their next build already underway, the vendors' commitment is clear, opening the door to one of the area's most complete family lifestyle properties.

Lifestyle Today + Potential Tomorrow

Our owners have genuinely loved calling 435 Cambridge Road home, but with a new chapter ahead, the opportunity is now yours to make this exceptional lifestyle property your own.

Set on a generous lifestyle site in sought-after Tauriko, this elevated property enjoys beautiful varied contour and an exceptional outlook from the home, creating a peaceful setting that perfectly complements its lifestyle appeal. The home has already benefited from a number of tasteful upgrades, providing comfortable living from day one while still offering plenty of scope for the next owner to add their own style and further enhance the property over time.

A standout feature is the substantial 6m x 12m Shed Boss shed - the perfect addition for car enthusiasts, tradies, hobbyists, or those needing secure storage for boats, caravans, or all the toys that come with the lifestyle.

What truly sets this property apart, however, is its future potential. Rarely does a lifestyle property allow you to enjoy the benefits of country living today while also offering exciting possibilities for tomorrow. Subject to the necessary council approvals and further due diligance, there is preliminary scope for a future owner to potentially subdivide approximately 3,811sqm from the lower portion of the property, creating an outstanding long-term land banking or development opportunity.

Lifestyle properties that combine an upgraded home, exceptional shedding, beautiful elevated views, future flexibility, and a prime Tauriko location are becoming increasingly difficult to find. Whether you're looking for room to spread out, space to pursue your hobbies, or the opportunity to unlock future value, this is a property that deserves your attention.

Contact Mark or Greg today to arrange your private viewing, or we look forward to seeing you at one of our upcoming open homes.

Modern timeless design with exceptional quality

Beautifully positioned to capture sweeping views across Lake Rotorua and Mount Ngongotahā, built in 2020 this exceptionally well-finished 327sqm (more or less) home combines quality, space and effortless family living in one of Rotorua's most sought-after lifestyle locations.

At the heart of the home is a stunning country-inspired kitchen. Crisp white cabinetry, generous bench space and a highly practical layout create a space that is as functional as it is chic, while a well-appointed scullery adds further storage and convenience. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the open-plan dining and living area, where expansive glazing draws the outlook in and makes the lake views a constant backdrop to everyday life.

Designed with entertaining in mind, the living spaces connect effortlessly to a superb outdoor area and solar-heated swimming pool. Thoughtfully positioned to enjoy the outlook while maximising the afternoon sun, this is a setting made for long summer evenings, family gatherings and relaxed weekends at home.

A separate second living room provides valuable flexibility and separation, while four generous bedrooms and three bathrooms ensure there is plenty of space for family and guests. The fourth bedroom is particularly versatile and could equally serve as a substantial home office, ideal for those looking to work from home without compromising on space.

Thoughtful design extends beyond the layout. Extensive rooftop solar helps reduce everyday power costs while improving the home's long-term efficiency, complementing the quality construction and practical features found throughout. A carpeted triple internal-access garage provides exceptional vehicle and storage space, further enhancing the home's functionality.

Outside, the attention to detail continues. Beautifully landscaped grounds, mature specimen trees and carefully designed planting create an established, private setting, while extensive weed matted and barked garden beds significantly reduce ongoing maintenance. The result is a property that delivers all the beauty of established landscaping without the workload often associated with it.

Adding further appeal is the home's position within the highly regarded Woodlands subdivision. Renowned for its quality homes, privacy and sense of community, Woodlands offers a lifestyle that extends well beyond your own boundary. Residents enjoy exclusive access to private walking and mountain biking trails that meander through an extensive area of protected native bush and Redwoods, permanently preserved for future generations to enjoy.

From the beautifully appointed interiors and stunning kitchen to the solar efficiency, exceptional landscaping and breathtaking outlook, this is a home where every detail has been thoughtfully considered. Combining premium living with remarkable practicality in one of Rotorua's finest lifestyle communities, this is a property that will impress from the moment you arrive.

The Good Life

Tucked into the peaceful Whatawhata countryside, just far enough from the city to feel like an escape and close enough to make it easy, this home doesn't just look good, it feels good. From the moment you turn into the drive, there's a sense of space, calm and belonging that's hard to put into words. You'll simply have to stand in it to understand it.

Step inside and the light filled, open plan living flows effortlessly out to a sheltered portico and deck, made for long lunches, easy evenings and everything in between. Gather around the outdoor fire as the sun goes down, host friends under the free standing pergola, or simply sit back and take in the space that's now yours. The heart of the home is a beautifully appointed kitchen, walk in pantry, gas hob and an island bench that naturally pulls everyone in, with a family room and separate lounge giving the whole household room to spread out.

Four genuinely spacious bedrooms complete the picture, headlined by a master retreat with its own ensuite, walk in wardrobe and private outdoor access. Add sleek, modern bathrooms, ducted air conditioning, gas infinity hot water, and low maintenance brick and Linea weatherboard construction, and you have a home that gives back your weekends instead of taking them.

Outside, there's room to move, two garden sheds, a double garage, ample parking and oodles of space for the kids to run free. This is rural living with real amenity: Whatawhata village and school are close by, with Dinsdale, Waikato Hospital and Hamilton's CBD all just a short drive away.

Covenants are all available to read, giving you full confidence and complete peace of mind as you make your decision.
Homes that combine this much space, style and genuine lifestyle appeal don't come around often. This is a perfect opportunity to secure your own piece of the good life, and once you've seen it, you'll understand why we say that.

Designer built, Self Sufficient & Family Ready

Turn through the automatic gates at 36b Farquharson Road, and the lifestyle starts before you even reach the home. A sweeping, tree-lined driveway welcomes you in, revealing a striking barn-style home designed by Harrison Lane, its dark cladding and high-pitched rooflines set against 5.5 hectares (more or less) of flat, well-fenced land, framed by native bush and rolling farmland.
Three separate living areas give real flexibility, perfect for multi-generational living or simply extra space for everyone. With a wood burner on each level, both are warm and welcoming year-round.

Upstairs is a private retreat. One bedroom, an office, and a fully tiled bathroom with a freestanding bath and a walk-in shower. The living area opens under a vaulted timber ceiling, with a sunny north-facing outlook and its own wood burner, flowing out to a large deck overlooking the property. There's also a timeless country kitchen, warm with timber finishes and built for everyday living.
Downstairs, the architecture really comes into its own. High stud ceilings, vaulted timber lines, polished concrete floors with underfloor heating, and barn-style doors throughout- every detail considered and built to last. It's a home that photographs beautifully but feels even better in person.

This level starts with a separate studio, complete with its own kitchenette, lounge, bathroom and entrance, ideal for extended family or guests. From there, three further bedrooms, two with ensuites, plus a separate toilet. There's a large second kitchen here too, well suited to entertaining or catering for extended family, along with a laundry and utility room. From the laundry, there's direct access through to a huge workshop garage, with three external roller doors of its own for easy outside access, perfect for vehicles, boats, or whatever you need the space for.

The home runs on mains power, with solar panels across the roofline and battery storage helping to bring the power bills down.
Outside, the property has real farm infrastructure. Three water sources from: water tanks, a bore and a spring. Two open bay sheds, one set up as stables, three tunnel houses, and a 70 x 40 arena, ideal for the equestrian-minded after something a step above hobby scale.
The land is flat and well fenced, framed by pockets of native bush. There's a chicken coop for fresh eggs, fruit trees, and stock yards for cattle and sheep.

This is a rare chance to buy an architecturally striking, well-designed lifestyle property with space for the whole family.
Close to Drury, Ramarama, Ararimu, Bombay, Pukekohe East, Clevedon, Hunua.
