At the heart of the property sits a generously proportioned four-bedroom weatherboard home dating back to the 1950s.

Architecture, Land, Legacy

Set within the fertile Heretaunga Plains, this remarkable 8.14 ha lifestyle estate stands as one of Hawke’s Bay’s most distinguished contemporary homes. Designed by acclaimed architect Gavin Cooper, and winner of the 2020 New Zealand Institute of Architects Gisborne and Hawke’s Bay Award, the home was conceived in homage to the regional modernism of John Scott and Guy Natusch.

The main home is a thoughtful expression of biophilic design, crafted to sit lightly on the land and harmonize with its surrounding environment. Expansive ribbon windows transform the home into a living observatory of light, shadow, and seasonal colour, framing an ever changing view across the plains to Te Mata Peak and Kahuranaki. The architecture is anchored by natural and enduring materials including Western red cedar cladding, terracotta floor tiles, and block feature walls. Comfort, wellbeing, and sustainability are prioritised throughout, with a full underfloor heating and cooling system, double glazing, and two distinct fireplaces in the living areas. Floating ceilings, custom macrocarpa and cedar joinery, and refined brushed nickel and stainless-steel hardware, speak to the uncompromising craftsmanship throughout.

From the moment you step through the custom pivot door in the gallery entrance, the home's two-winged, open-plan structure exudes warmth and functionality. The generously scaled kitchen and dining spaces feature a cantilevered window seat, island bench, and grand sliding doors which open out onto the home's north-west facing terraces. Adjacent to the kitchen, a self-contained scullery and integrated laundry affords covered external access to the home's two-bay carport. The dining and living areas unfold as a series of beautifully connected spaces, beyond which a private office featuring built-in cabinetry leads to the primary suite. Located at the western-most aspect, the secluded master bedroom is complete with a walk-in wardrobe and en-suite. To the right of the gallery entrance, the family wing includes a secondary living space, full bathroom with freestanding bath and separate shower, and three double bedrooms each with individual garden terrace access.

The wider estate includes a fully updated 1970s three bedroom home, ideal for extended family, guests, staff, or income generation. A generous office building mirrors the original home and is fully equipped for accommodating a small professional team, including an IT hub, and security systems. Multiple sheds located on the property, each with power and water access, offer excellent utility.

The land is as impressive as the architecture, featuring beautifully established plantings and a productive garden orchard of summer fruits contributes to the property’s self sufficiency. With three bores on site and existing water consent for irrigation, the land presents outstanding horticultural or agricultural potential, offering versatility for a wide range of lifestyle and productive uses. The owners have also future proofed the property with pipework already in place for a heated swimming pool and gas connections for outdoor entertaining and barbecue facilities.

This property represents a rare convergence of architecture, wellness, land and legacy. It is an exceptional offering, architecturally significant, meticulously executed, and designed to elevate both daily living and long term enjoyment.

Set in the beautiful Waitoki area, this 1 hectare (more or less) freehold section is just a short 20-minute drive to Albany and 35 minutes to Auckland City (off peak).

With its north facing aspect and gentle contour the block is sheltered and the trees on the boundary offer privacy and character.

The elevated building platform offers flexibility for a variety of home designs and the space for a minor dwelling or shed and enjoys stunning rural landscape views and all the feel of country living and peaceful living.

Waitoki Village is only a kilometre down the road, where you can find the local school, cafe, gas station village hall and boutique chocolate factory plus daycare centre, yoga studio and jujitsu club catering to educational and exercise needs for young and old.

If you are looking for a cost-effective lifestyle block on which to create your own country dream, then come and explore this lovely block. Call now to arrange a viewing anytime.

(Drive times are off peak)

Waitoki lies within the Rodney District between SH16 on the west and SH17 on the east. It is a highly desirable rural district nestled 10km west of the Silverdale motorway on-ramp and only 33 km north of central Auckland within Rodney on SH 1. Until the early 1990s most of Waitoki and surrounding district was in dairy farms of 40-60 hectares, but with the growth of Auckland City and the extension of the Northern Motorway into the area, these are being gradually subdivided into lifestyle blocks of 2-5 hectares, many of which are grazing sheep, a pony or a few cows. Waitoki is counted as part of the Auckland urban area in official statistics, yet it still retains its rural character.

Waitoki provides the ideal opportunity for lifestyle seekers to enjoy privacy and peaceful country living, whilst still remaining close to work and schools. We are finding more buyers are considering Waitoki and it is especially popular for kids and horses, with some great horse friendly properties and an excellent local primary school plus a small village centre for daily convenience.
