Stunning lifestyle - privacy, lake and pines

For sale by deadline closing 2pm, Thu 30 Apr 2026 (unless sold prior).

Properties of this calibre are rarely seen in the Rangitīkei. Set across 11.39ha (more or less), a sweeping driveway lined with redwoods, magnolias and spring bulbs leads to a roundabout and two powered three bay sheds, before the home comes into view, with its timber details and pitched rooflines.

The 390sqm (more or less) home unfolds in rich rimu, kauri, limestone and bluestone, creating warmth and character throughout. The kitchen is exceptional, complete with skylights, in residents' pewter tapware with copper sink, marble benchtop, a powered island, soft touch drawers, two dish drawers, and adjoining access up from the internal double garage via a beautiful rimu stairwell.

At the heart of the open plan lounge and dining area is an open fireplace framed by a Central Otago bluestone surround with an integrated woodbox, while French doors open seamlessly to the garden entertaining area. Off the lounge, stairs lead to the upper level where two bedrooms enjoy natural light, pitched ceilings, dam views, a private balcony, and a bathroom. A light-filled study sits beneath high timber ceilings with skylights, limestone flooring underfoot and large windows. The master suite occupies its own wing, positioned to capture the morning sun. Complete with linen curtains, a walk-in dressing room with his and hers wardrobes framed by mirrored cabinetry, and an ensuite with an inset bathtub and tiled limestone shower, imagine this: your own serene and private retreat.

Wool carpet, internal radiators and a Rayburn system heating both water and radiators complete the home’s outstanding level of finish. Practical spaces flow together, such as the laundry, walk-in linen room, heated flooring in the laundry, and a hot water cupboard, ensuring everyday comfort.

What further elevates this property is the garden estate that surrounds it. Approximately 4ha of landscaped grounds unfold across layered terraces that follow the natural contours of the land, with access tracks weaving throughout, evolving beautifully through the seasons. Established ornamental plantings sit alongside productive fruit and nut trees, complemented by a berry cage, asparagus garden and raised vegetable beds. The lake is planted in rushes and irises and flanked by acorns and apple trees that provide natural food sources for ducks and wildlife, while four maimais are positioned across the upper and lower dams. Completing the setting is approximately 7ha of well-tended mature pines, forming a private backdrop and offering future harvest potential. Find a shooting range hut tucked away in the mature native bush for another relaxed rural enjoyment.

This is more than a home, it is a multi-layered, next-level lifestyle estate that offers beauty, capability, and a sense of tranquillity that is increasingly rare. An environment that feels both luxurious and deeply grounded in nature.

Viewings by private arrangement only.

Panoramic building site, duck ponds and grazing

Set along an elevated ridgeline west of Renwick, this exceptional 8.17 hectare holding captures a sweeping panorama across the vast and ever changing plains of Marlborough, with eastern views across Blenheim to the Cook Strait and North Island, southern views up the picturesque Waihopai Valley and western views towards Mt Fishtail and the Wairau Valley beyond.

With an outlook that is both expansive and enduring, this property presents a compelling canvas for those seeking to create something truly special. A designated engineered building platform has been identified, positioned to maximise the commanding views. There are no design covenants in place, keeping the options for crafting your bespoke residence wide open. Access is well formed, with a gravel driveway completed from the gate to the building site.

Two large ponds are set in the gully of the property, surrounded by a selection of plantings. There is great scope to further develop this area with New Zealand natives to encourage bird life and add to the aesthetic value. For those keen duck hunters, both ponds provide suitable places to construct a Maimai. There are two well fenced, west facing grazing paddocks of easy contour situated beside the water catchments, ideal for those desiring space to have horses, pets or graze stock. With the balance of the land surrounding the build site, the terrain could be easily converted with mass native plantings or cleared and fenced for further grazing.

Despite its sense of seclusion, convenience remains close at hand. Renwick is just five minutes away for amenities and quality schooling, with Blenheim a short 15-minute drive. Marlborough Airport is less than ten minutes away, and access to the Marlborough Sounds is within an easy commute.

Properties of this calibre, combining elevation, scale and blank canvas potential, are seldom available. With a change in plans, the vendors no longer have intentions to build, offering their property to the market with clear intentions of selling under the hammer.

Please be aware, this property is located down a private right of way and is not accessible without the listing agents. Get in touch with Kurt Lindsay and Tarin Mason today to arrange your inspection and receive a full information package.

Gladbrook Homestead

16.4886 Hectares - Set at the foot of the Rock and Pillar Range with commanding views across the Strath Taieri Gladbrook Station Homestead offers one of the region's most significant historic rural holdings.
Built in 1890's and positioned just 64km from Dunedin International Airport and 10km from Middlemarch, this substantial homestead and its surrounding buildings once formed the operational heart of Gladbrook Station - established in 1872 and historically linked to the wider Strath Taieri Run 213 before it was split up. As the residence of John Roberts, founder of Murray Roberts & Co., the station became an important centre of activity in the district, with shepherd teams, station hands, and numerous support staff requiring a broad range of buildings and infrastructure.
Today, this rare 16.4ha offering brings together an exceptional collection of original structures - including the grand homestead, a standalone billiard room, stone cottages, utility buildings, shearers’ quarters, and a classic woolshed. Together they present a platform of scale and character that is increasingly hard to find. Beyond its historical significance, the property’s layout and setting open the door to wide-ranging possibilities: a private rural residence, multi building accommodation venture, wedding or event destination, or even a campervan and motorhome park over. Gladbrook Homestead stands as a substantial, versatile estate ready to be shaped for its next purpose. Phone for set viewing times.

Lifestyle Meets Legacy

Set on over four hectares of landscaped native gardens, gully terrain and open paddocks in one of Tamahere’s most coveted pockets, this is a property of genuine scale and privacy. Sprawling views stretch across the surrounding countryside, and the sense of seclusion is immediate, yet Cambridge and Hamilton city are both within easy reach.

Spanning approximately 378sqm across two levels, the home offers six bedrooms, three bathrooms and three living areas, including a formal lounge with chapel-style ceilings and a separate family living room. The open-plan kitchen and dining area opens to the outdoors through large bi-folding doors, while a second master suite downstairs, complete with ensuite and walk-in wardrobe, provides excellent flexibility for extended family or guests.

The outdoor setting is extraordinary. A saltwater in-ground swimming pool, tennis court, equine sand arena, exercise track, paddocks and stockyards make this a working lifestyle property in every sense. A five-bay garage with workshop adds exceptional storage and utility, while double glazing, four heat pumps, an open fireplace and fibre internet ensure year-round comfort throughout the home.

Zoned for Tamahere Model Country School, Berkley Normal Middle School and Hillcrest High School (buyers to verify), the location offers excellent schooling alongside easy access to Tamahere village shops and cafés, Tamahere Park, the Te Awa River Ride cycleway and Hamilton city. Cambridge is a short drive in the other direction.

Lifestyle properties of this calibre are rarely offered in Tamahere. This one deserves your full attention.
