Ranginui Retreat

Originally crafted as a sawmiller’s homestead in the Totara Forest, north up the Ruamahunga Valley, Ranginui Retreat began life with character and heart already woven into its walls. In the late 1970s, it was gracefully relocated to its commanding position, where over the following decade it was lovingly reshaped and refined. Passing through the hands of several owners, the property eventually found its current custodians in 2015. Since then, an inspired vision has unfolded—a labour of passion and artistry that has significantly transformed the residence into a home of rare beauty.

Spanning 3.299 hectares, the land is as captivating as the home itself—a harmonious blend of contoured slopes and level paddocks. This balance of form and function frames the residence with sweeping outlooks while offering versatility for grazing, recreation, or simply enjoying the beauty of wide-open space. The property is well serviced by both spring and rainwater collection, ensuring a plentiful supply year-round.
The current owners relocated a charming cottage from Hawke’s Bay and, in collaboration with their architects, breathed new life into its design. The result is a self-contained dwelling of warmth and character, thoughtfully reimagined to reflect the craftsmanship and attention to detail evident throughout the main residence. Nestled among the gardens and trees, the cottage provides privacy, comfort, and the perfect space to rejuvenate, continuing its potential as additional accommodation or a luxury rental offering.

Step inside the main home and you are welcomed by a sweeping entrance that immediately conveys a sense of arrival. Its generous proportions invite a moment of pause, creating an elegant and memorable first impression. Ahead, a striking sliding door becomes a focal point—adorned with original newspaper discovered during the home’s renovation, a rare detail that seamlessly weaves history into the fabric of the residence.

At the centre of the home, the kitchen has been carefully reimagined to maximise flow and functionality. Recycled and repurposed materials lend a charm that is both timeless and contemporary, while the open-plan layout connects seamlessly with dining and living areas. Formal dining and sitting rooms add balance, offering both relaxed family living and refined spaces for entertaining.

The main house features three bedrooms and three bathrooms, each designed to capture natural light and views of the grounds. The master suite is a private sanctuary, complete with ensuite, walk-in dressing room, and serene outlooks over the gardens. Additional bedrooms offer comfort and versatility, complemented by well-appointed bathrooms, garden views, and a generous office space for those working from home.

Outdoors, the property continues to impress. European-inspired gardens create a series of “rooms,” leading the eye toward views over the Ruamahunga River to Mt Bruce in the north. Recreational amenities include a saltwater swimming pool, tennis court, stables, tack shed, and a productive vegetable garden—together offering a lifestyle that caters to both family living and leisure pursuits. Currently operated as luxury guest accommodation, Ranginui Retreat seamlessly blends lifestyle, business potential, and the possibility of multi-generational living, all within easy reach of Masterton township, quality schools, and the train station for Wellington commuters.

Ranginui Retreat is more than a home—it is a legacy, a lifestyle, and an opportunity to own a property of rare distinction, where every detail has been carefully considered and lovingly executed,

Subdivision + Forestry Investment

Situated in the highly sought after Dalbeth Road location, this 24.06 hectare bare land holding offers a rare opportunity to secure a substantial block with future potential. Currently held as one title, the property comes with consent to be subdivided into two lots, allowing a purchaser the choice of retaining the whole parcel or completing the subdivision.

The smaller lot, approximately three hectares, enjoys lake views and an elevated house site with access via Dalbeth Road. A metal road is already formed to the proposed building platform. The contour rises from the road to a steeper sidling before flattening at the top, ensuring privacy and outlook, with lake views.

The larger lot, approximately twenty one hectares, also benefits from a formed metal road and elevated house site with lake views. Most of this block has been replanted in second rotation pine trees, now around three and a half years old, while a nearby gully has been planted in natives of a similar age. This blend of reforestation and potential home site creates both a lifestyle and long term investment opportunity.

A property of this scale and versatility in such a premium lifestyle location is seldom available. Whether held as one substantial block, or developed into two, the options here are as attractive as the outlook.

A Countryside Daydream

Enchanting, elegant, timeless. The ‘grande dame’ of Te Kowhai is a place where timeless character meets the gentle rhythm of countryside living. Spacious and secure, with a quiet grace that whispers of slow mornings, golden afternoons, and the kind of peace you didn’t know you were missing.

Built in an era when craftsmanship was a promise, this residence carries its history with pride. From the dramatic entrance hall to soaring ceilings, polished hardwood floors and delicate leadlight windows, every detail speaks of enduring quality and charm.
Step beyond the storybook façade and discover a home designed for real life—generous, welcoming, and beautifully attuned to the needs of a modern family. The main home configuration includes four bedrooms, two bathrooms including a primary ensuite and a beautifully positioned office nook. The layout is thoughtful and intuitive, with distinct zones that invite connection and comfort. Dual living areas offer space to unwind or entertain, each warmed by its own inviting feature—a gas fireplace in one, and a wood burner in the other—while the accommodation wing is enhanced by ducted heating and cooling, ensuring year-round comfort.

The bathrooms are a quiet triumph—elegantly appointed with travertine stone features and warmed by under-tile heating, they offer a spa-like experience that elevates everyday routines into moments of indulgence.

Outside, the magic continues. Morning coffees in sun-dappled corners, tennis matches on lazy weekends, summer swims, and fireside chats—indoors or under the stars. The grounds are nothing short of idyllic: over 1.5 hectares of fully fenced, gated land with sweeping lawns, mature trees, winding pathways, and a tranquil pond that feels like something out of a fairytale. A petanque court adds a touch of European charm, while a delightful Wendy house and play area tucked among the trees but still visible from the home offers a whimsical escape for little ones—or simply a quiet nook for daydreams.

For multi-generational living, a creative studio, or a supplementary income, the ‘studio’ is a revelation. Set at a comfortable distance from the main home to allow privacy, while still close enough for easy connection when needed. Designed in harmony with the main home, it’s practical, private, and full of possibility. Featuring a well-appointed bedroom and ensuite that echo the warmth and style of the main residence, along with a private deck, kitchenette, and lounge, it offers complete independence and versatility.

Located in the heart of Te Kowhai, this property offers the rare blend of rural serenity and urban convenience. With easy access to the expressway, nearby townships, and zoning for the highly sought-after local school, it’s no wonder homes here are cherished and tightly held.

This isn’t just a home—it’s a countryside reverie waiting to be lived.
