An Extraordinary Waterfront Estate

Evoking the ambience of a private international resort, this estate offers a distinctive waterfront lifestyle in one of the world's most desirable countries.

Privately positioned on the Karaka waterfront, 47 Island View Road brings together the qualities that define a genuine family estate: a substantial residence, established grounds, a direct connection to the water, exceptional entertaining spaces, recreational amenities, extensive garaging and the freedom that comes with space.

This is an estate where the experience extends well beyond the home itself. From the moment you arrive, established gardens and expansive lawns create a sense of privacy and separation. The residence opens naturally to outdoor living areas, inviting the outdoors into everyday life.

The waterfront is fundamental to the property's character. Rather than serving simply as a backdrop, the water becomes part of the way the estate is enjoyed, bringing boating, recreation and the changing moods of the harbour into daily life. Together with the heated swimming pool, private hydroslide and multiple entertaining areas, the waterfront setting offers a distinctive resort-style lifestyle without sacrificing the comfort and privacy of a family home.

Inside, the substantial residence has been developed for living as much as for entertaining. Generous accommodation and multiple living areas provide flexibility for family and guests, while the natural connection between indoor spaces, terraces, lawns and the waterfront allows gatherings to move effortlessly between the house and its surroundings. Underfloor heating and substantial supporting infrastructure further enhance year-round comfort.

Beyond the principal residence, extensive garaging, shedding and ancillary areas provide valuable additional capacity for vehicles, boats, equipment and collections. These spaces allow the estate to accommodate a broad range of interests and evolving family needs without compromising the main home or the presentation of the grounds.

A location on the property is used for helicopter landings, adding another dimension to the estate's appeal. Alongside road access and the property's waterfront position, this further enhances its distinctive character.

Located in Karaka, Auckland, the estate brings together an established waterfront setting, resort-style recreation and extensive supporting facilities. Its appeal lies in this combination of attributes, creating a family estate that would be exceptionally difficult to replicate today.

Waterfront Prestige
Private waterfront access makes the harbour an integral part of everyday life, offering opportunities for boating, recreation and time with family and friends. The connection between the residence, expansive lawns and water gives this estate a distinctive lifestyle appeal.

Refined Family Living
Designed for comfort and family living, the substantial residence features multiple family and recreation rooms, creating distinct spaces for relaxation, entertainment and family gatherings. Two master suites, three additional bedrooms and a guest room provide ample accommodation, while the thoughtful layout allows different generations to enjoy time together and maintain their privacy.

Private Resort
A heated swimming pool, maintained at an inviting 28 - 30C for year-round enjoyment, is complemented by a private hydroslide, sauna, multiple outdoor entertaining areas and bars. From relaxed family afternoons to gatherings with friends, the estate offers resort-style enjoyment in a private setting.

Access by Land, Water and Air
Road access connects the estate with the wider Auckland region, while private waterfront access offers a direct connection to the harbour. A recognised location on the property has also been used for helicopter landings, with any future use subject to applicable requirements.

Space for Cars, Boats and Collections
Extensive garaging, shedding and ancillary areas provide valuable space for vehicles, boats, equipment and collections. This supporting infrastructure adds practical flexibility for a range of interests and family needs, without compromising the principal residence.

The appeal of 47 Island View Road lies in bringing together waterfront living, resort-style recreation and extensive supporting facilities in one established Auckland estate. Recreating this combination would require the right location and scale, together with considerable time and investment.

A private sanctuary with a view to remember

Some homes impress you with their features. Others simply make you feel something the moment you walk through the door. This architecturally designed home by INK Architecture does both.

Built in 2019 and offered to the market for the first time, its cedar cladding and modern aesthetic have been carefully considered to blend with the natural environment. Stretching across the site, the home captures arguably one of the finest views towards Sanctuary Mountain Maungatautari. Picture windows frame the landscape, while tui, kaka, kereru and pheasants bring life to a backdrop that changes with the skies and seasons.

Inside, there is an immediate sense of space and calm. Soaring 3.6m studs bring volume to the open-plan living area, where a designer kitchen and substantial scullery sit at the heart of the home. With a second dishwasher and wine fridge, the scullery keeps the practical side of entertaining tucked away, while a gas fire adds warmth and atmosphere. A separate media room offers somewhere to retreat when a quieter evening calls.

The floorplan has been thoughtfully arranged for family life. Along one wing, three bedrooms and an office sit alongside a beautifully appointed family bathroom with underfloor heating and a fully tiled walk-in shower, complemented by a separate toilet with basin. Each bedroom has double wardrobes and opens onto the covered patio, then out to the lawn. At the opposite end, the master suite is a peaceful retreat. Generous picture windows draw the landscape in, while a substantial walk-in wardrobe and spacious ensuite with underfloor heating and a tiled walk-in shower complete the space. Direct patio access invites a quiet morning coffee, with provision for a future spa adding another possibility for unwinding outdoors.

The same thoughtful approach extends to the practical spaces. A generous laundry and double garage with built-in cabinetry provide excellent storage, while ducted heating keeps the home comfortable year-round. Provision for a future Louvretec system offers scope to further enhance outdoor living.

Set on 3,511sqm (more or less), the grounds offer a taste of country life without the workload of a larger lifestyle property. Carefully considered, low-maintenance landscaping includes vegetable gardens, a sandpit and trampoline, and a paddock for a few pet lambs. There is also room to explore a pool, shed or tiny home, subject to applicable covenants and the necessary approvals.

Despite the peaceful setting, Cambridge is only around 13 minutes away, with school bus options for intermediate and high school adding to the everyday convenience.

Private, peaceful and beautifully connected to its surroundings, this is the kind of home you return to at the end of the day, close the door behind you and simply breathe.

Idyllic Ida Valley Lifestyle

Sometimes, in life, you get lucky. You time it, just right. Now’s one of those times. You see, 132 Aston Road has never been on the market before. The owners have loved this magical wee Moa Creek property so much – they’ve lived here - more or less - for five decades.
They’ve raised children and sheep. They’ve swam in the creek that gave the area its name. Pulled lobsters from it. They’ve grown fruit. Produced jams and chutneys. They’ve barbequed under Central’s scorching hot sun. The house-proud couple don’t want to leave but are smart enough to realise they must. Their departure means someone else can enjoy this idyllic little Ida Valley escape as much as they have.

The immaculate 1960’s built three-bedroom one-bathroom plaster-over-brick home sits on just over 3.3 hectares of rolling, well-sheltered and irrigated land. The house has two double bedrooms and one smaller one, which is currently being used as an office. The tidy family bathroom, which incorporates a shower over a bath, features underfloor heating, while there’s a second toilet in the laundry. The kitchen, living, and dining space is open plan and is heated by a log burner, cool old Orion coal range and heat transfer system. Almost all the windows and doors are double glazed, and this older home is well insulated, ensuring you stay warm in the winter. There’s a large walk-in-pantry off the kitchen for the jams and chutneys you’ll produce from the property. There are two beaut entertaining areas – a spacious north facing deck off the front of the house – as well an elevated patio and shade sail – perfect for those summer barbies.

The well-maintained property boasts heaps of shedding. There’s a couple of smaller storage sheds near the house, a one car garage, and a 3-bay shed with lean to and sheep handling facilities. The lawns and garden are just as immaculate as the house and offer raspberries, strawberries, blackcurrants, pears, grapes, apples, rosemary and more. The land is fenced into four paddocks and can be flood irrigated four times a season, which means this wee property can grow heaps of grass for your choice of animals. There’s a small pond, lots of lovely trees – some of which can be used for firewood – and then there’s that gorgeous wee Moa Creek that makes its way through this idyllic little property.

This exceptional lifestyle property – on the market for the first time – is just 27 kilometres from Alexandra and the lucky new owners will enjoy everything ‘the good life’ has to offer in this special part of country.

132 Aston Road, Moa Creek – your future starts here.

Set amongst beautifully landscaped grounds with sweeping mountain views, this exceptional country home brings together timeless character, outstanding craftsmanship and modern comfort. Built with care and attention to detail by its current owners, this is a home that has been lovingly lived in and cherished over the years, with a warmth and character that can be felt throughout. Ideally positioned just minutes from the conveniences of Rangiora township and around a 30-minute drive to Christchurch, it offers the perfect balance of rural tranquillity, space and everyday convenience.

From the first step inside you’ll feel at home, with beautiful recycled Canadian Oregon timber features, this impressive 335sqm home has everything and more. The kitchen is very much the heart of this property, with a warm, welcoming farmhouse feel that perfectly complements the character of the home. Crafted by Grant Kearney Joinery, it is generous in scale and designed for everyday family life as much as entertaining, with a substantial central island, double sink, quality cabinetry and bifold pantry doors. Positioned to take in the sweeping mountain views, it is a beautiful place to gather, whether enjoying a quiet morning coffee, preparing dinner with family or entertaining friends.

Just off the kitchen you’ll be welcomed by cathedral ceilings and glass-peaked skylights creating a stunning conservatory, complemented by Quarry Slate flooring, underfloor heating, a built-in bar and window seating. This space flows effortlessly to the outdoor entertaining area where you’ll find beautiful gardens, an open fire, and a floodlit tennis court along with pickleball markings - everything has been thought of!

The recycled Oregon flows throughout the home, including the kitchen flooring, stairway, internal doors, architraves and wall panelling. Axminster carpet, quality wallpaper and Firth Highlander blockwork add warmth and texture.

The bedrooms are thoughtfully arranged over two levels. Upstairs, the master retreat features walk-in wardrobes and a beautifully tiled ensuite with twin shower, twin vanity and underfloor heating. Downstairs are three further bedrooms, including one with its own ensuite and deck access, which is ideal for guests, or as an alternate master.

Comfort and character are thoughtfully woven throughout the home, the Firth Highlander blocks feature beautifully around the log burner adding that distinctive farmhouse feel. With underfloor heating to tiled areas, a Beam Vacuum system, heat transfer and surround sound all adding to the everyday ease of living. Multiple Kwila timber decks extend the living outdoors, while the triple-car garage provides excellent space for vehicles, storage and hobbies.

The established grounds are equally impressive, with manicured lawns, buxus hedging, roses, lavender, specimen trees and fruit trees. A substantial MITEK American-style barn, offers exceptional versatility for storage, hobbies, vehicles or future plans, with a woodshed and garden shed completing the outbuildings. You’ll also find a floodlit tennis court with pickleball markings, perfect for enjoying long summer days outdoors.

With its peaceful farmhouse character, outstanding mountain outlooks, privacy and quality rarely found in one property, this is a home with genuine presence and soul ready for it’s next family to love and cherish.

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.
