Rare 10-Hectare Opportunity - Ongare Point

Opportunities like this are becoming increasingly hard to find. Set within Katikati’s sought-after horticultural belt on the seaside of State Highway 2, this exceptional 10.6 hectare property offers a rare combination of established avocado trees, expansive grazing paddocks and outstanding potential for future horticultural development.

Currently set up for grazing beef cattle and horses, the predominantly flat contour is a standout feature, with sprawling paddocks sheltered by mature trees and surrounded by established orchards. For those with horticultural ambitions, the property presents an exciting kiwifruit conversion opportunity, with the potential for approximately 8.5 canopy hectares without the need for contouring.

Four titles endless possibilities

Comprising approximately 6.7 hectares across four separate titles, 88 Old Waipu Road occupies an enviable position on the doorstep of Mangawhai Village. Rolling pasture, elevated building platforms, mature shelter, and sweeping estuary and rural vistas create an exceptional balance of lifestyle, investment and future potential.
For retiring farmers, this is the perfect opportunity to scale back without stepping away entirely. Run livestock, maintain a productive rural lifestyle, and enjoy the satisfaction of owning a historic piece of Northland farming heritage, all while being just minutes from cafés, shops, golf courses and coastal amenities.
For developers and land bankers, the property's strategic location is increasingly difficult to ignore. Positioned adjacent to one of New Zealand's most dynamic growth districts, the land offers scale, flexibility and multiple titles that provide several pathways for future consideration, subject to appropriate approvals.
For international and long-term investors, opportunities of this nature are becoming increasingly scarce. Mangawhai continues to attract significant population growth, infrastructure investment and lifestyle-driven migration, while maintaining the natural beauty and coastal character that have made it one of New Zealand's most sought-after destinations. Acquiring a substantial landholding on the edge of the township offers the potential to benefit from both current enjoyment and future growth.
Whether your vision is to preserve a remarkable piece of local history, establish an exceptional lifestyle estate, continue its agricultural legacy, or secure a strategic landholding for future generations, 88 Old Waipu Road represents an opportunity that is increasingly rare to find and exceptionally difficult to replicate.
Historic. Productive. Strategic. A legacy property ready for its next chapter.

Country Character, Modern Comfort

Step out the door, and you are in the bush. This 6.94ha (more or less) property sits at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, with approximately 5.7ha of established native bush and 1.10ha with a home and land. A constantly flowing stream winds between the paddock and the bush, the birdsong never stops, and a deep swimming hole is just a short walk away. Pack a picnic and head for the waterfalls. This is the kind of place where weekends take care of themselves.

At the centre of it all is a 190sqm (more or less) weatherboard character home with 270-degree views. It has been recently renovated and freshly painted inside and out. Large windows fill the house with natural light, and warm timber floors run throughout the main living spaces. The kitchen, upgraded just two years ago, is the heart of the home. A large island topped with Red Tempest, a quartzite from Brazil, anchors the space, with the same stone carried through to the pantry and part of the splashback. Absolute Black granite benchtops, white shaker-style cabinetry, a gas cooktop and statement pendant lighting complete the picture. It all flows easily into the dining and living areas, where a heat pump and wood burner keep things comfortable through every season.
Step through the French doors onto the covered deck, and you have an outdoor room that works all year. Built-in lighting means long summer evenings carry on well after the sun goes down. A second open deck catches the sun, giving you two very different spaces to relax or entertain.

There are four bedrooms, all connected to a Mitsubishi ERV system. The master opens straight onto its own deck, looking directly into the native bush. It also has a walk-in robe and ensuite. A second bedroom shares the deck access, and one bedroom currently works well as a study. The family bathroom is full of character, with rimu panelling, timber floors and a classic clawfoot bath.
A wide sealed driveway leads to the double garage, with plenty of room for parking and turning. The garage includes a rumpus room with its own bathroom, a handy space for guests, teenagers or a home office. Wide lawns give kids and pets plenty of room to run. There is a mini orchard, and two large raised vegetable gardens are ready for planting. The paddock below the home is currently grazed by sheep.

Town and Country

If you’re wanting to go country - but you don’t want to leave town - then this is the property for you. One ninety-eight Earnscleugh Road offers an elegant five-bedroom two-bathroom home on more than three hectares of well-fenced flat land, just 1.2 kilometres from Alexandra. The new owners of this leafy, established property can enjoy the space, privacy, and lifestyle a block this size typically offers as well as the convenience of living very close to town.

The large 1995-built designed-for-the-sun plaster home sits at the back of the property and is linked to Earnscleugh Road via a private meandering cherry blossom tree lined driveway. The house is surrounded by beautiful well-established trees and shrubs. The back of the home has a grand English-estate-like symmetrical entrance, which leads through to the main living area and front entrance, which opens out to a very pleasant entertaining area, lawn and garden.

Most of this substantial light-filled home faces north with the master bedroom, walk-in-wardrobe, and ensuite at the eastern end of the house. Another three double bedrooms - all with built in wardrobes - are at the nor-western wing of the house. An open plan kitchen dining and living area, as well as a second living space make up the rest of the northern side of the home. A log burner and diesel fire heat this area, while the rural outlook through the double-glazed windows and doors is delightful.

A family bathroom, a fifth double bedroom, an office and a separate laundry with internal access to the double garage - all linked by a large hallway with floor to ceiling windows - complete the package. This is a lovely warm house with a great, homely feel to it.

Outside, the garden and the paddocks are well set up with fixed sprinklers and plenty of irrigation quota. The wee farm has a central lane for stock movement and then there’s the shedding. There’s plenty – a single garage, a three-bay implement shed with sheep yards for shearing, as well as a huge ‘high-stud’ shed with lockable roller doors, verandah, toilet and laundry facilities. A caravan pad with power and water is close by.

Close to the Clutha River with those Dunstan Mountains in the background, this leafy property has taken decades to knock into shape. The huge house is as solid as a rock. The sheds are in place. The fences are up. The sprinklers are in the ground. The trees, shrubs and plants are established. Imagine what this property would set you back if you were going to start from scratch. Conveniently located to Alexandra - remember just 1,200 metres from town - you’d struggle find a better property to invest in.

198 Earnscleugh Road, Alexandra - your future starts here.

The predominantly flat land is well suited to a range of lifestyle pursuits, with a mixture of post and batten and electric fencing, established vegetable gardens and young plantings that will continue to enhance the property as they mature. All the hard work has been done to create your own dream home, with a great building site, septic and water infrastructure already in place and the grounds planted out. The picturesque rural outlook and peaceful setting add to the appeal, offering space to enjoy the benefits of country living.

A standout feature is the substantial 150sqm (more or less) two-bay Coloursteel shed, constructed in December 2025. Complete with a concrete floor and two electric roller doors, the shed offers excellent space for vehicles, machinery, storage or recreational interests. A portion of the shed has been fitted out with a bedroom, bathroom and living area, providing additional functionality.

Conveniently located approximately 3km from Te Kauwhata township, the property enjoys easy access to local schooling, shops and everyday amenities. With State Highway 1 nearby, both Auckland and Hamilton are within commuting distance, making this an appealing location for those wanting a rural lifestyle without sacrificing convenience.

Whether you're looking for a manageable lifestyle block, substantial shedding for your hobbies or a property with scope to further develop subject to the necessary approvals, 84 Hall Road presents an opportunity worth exploring.
