Premium property, premium lake views

Embracing awe-inspiring panoramic views of Lake Karapiro, Maungatuatari Mountain and the surrounding countryside, this 7.2ha (more or less) property could be your very own slice of paradise.

Built in 2018 from Hinuera stone, the high-spec, architecturally designed home is nestled amongst low-maintenance, landscaped grounds in a private, elevated position to take full advantage of the sun and the captivating outlook.

From the moment you step inside, the focus on comfort and considered design is clear. The double-door, high-stud foyer with full-height picture window looking out to the lake provides the first taste of what is to come. Round the corner into the spacious open-plan kitchen, living and dining area and be wowed by the views through the floor-to-ceiling stacker doors that open to a large covered alfresco dining and relaxation space. Start the day watching the morning sun light up the lake and hills over a coffee or relax at days-end soaking in the spa or appreciating the everchanging colours of a sunset with a drink in hand. The kitchen is an entertainer's dream with a scullery, plentiful bench and cupboard space, quality appliances and large breakfast bar, while the dedicated drinks station with wine fridge is sure to please. Adding to the practicality of the home is a separate laundry with bench and sink, multiple large cupboards (two walk-in) plus an internal vacuum system with toe-kick automatic dustpan in the kitchen. The separate lounge can be closed off to create a more private, quiet space for relaxation, while an office provides a dedicated work-from-home option. All three bedrooms are generously sized, and both bathrooms feature fully tiled walk-in showers. Heating and cooling are well covered with a ducted central heat pump system, built-in double-sided gas fire and double glazing throughout. Accessibility has been kept top of mind with oversized doors, wide hallways and level thresholds.

The extensive concreted driveway provides plenty of off-street parking, while the separate high-stud double garage adjacent to the home and 3-bay shed located near the property entrance will accommodate the boat, caravan or extra storage needs.

The balance of the land features grazing for a few animals, approx. 8,000 manuka trees, a bushy gully with creek and a cabin, perfect for kids to get outdoors and let their imagination run wild.

Well positioned in a prime Waikato location, this property offers a sense of seclusion whilst still being handy to Cambridge, Matamata and key regional centres. The Waikato River and its bike trails and boat ramps are accessible a short distance from your gate and offer unparalleled leisure time pursuits.

Self-sufficient eco-sanctuary

If living lightly on the land while embracing comfort sits at the top of your wish list, this off-grid retreat in Ohauiti may be the lifestyle shift you’ve been searching for.

Set across 1.4815 hectares of elevated terrain, thoughtfully contoured with levelled areas and a geotech-approved house site, this property offers both outlook and opportunity. More than just a lifestyle block, it’s a quiet eco-sanctuary - where nature, simplicity, and comfort live in harmony.
Mostly bordered by bush including areas of QEII covenanted native forest, the setting offers exceptional privacy, natural beauty, and a connection to conservation.

At its heart stands a beautifully crafted Tiny Home (unconsented) with double bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and living space radiating warmth and modern convenience - a welcoming retreat, perfectly attuned to its natural surrounds. For those seeking to build, the Tiny Home may be relocated on the property, and the Geotech-approved house site offering the ideal foundation for a new consented dwelling tailored to your vision.

Purpose-built for true self-sufficiency, the home runs entirely off-grid, powered by a robust solar system with battery storage and backup generator. A rainwater harvesting system ensures your water needs are sustainably met, while eco-friendly composting toilets speak to a lifestyle that honours the environment and future generations.

Adjacent to the main dwelling, a covered shed with roller door and cladding over two shipping containers offers secure storage and houses the off-grid infrastructure - a clever solution where function meets form in an aesthetically pleasing way. Tucked further up the property, a second self-contained tiny home (unconsented) with open plan bedroom and living space with bathroom offering extra space for extended family or guests - a private haven within the haven.

For those with rural aspirations, the land is neatly divided into six well-fenced paddocks, complemented by brand-new stock yards and a load-out race - ideal for a small mob of sheep, goats, or alpacas. Whether you’re a hobby farmer or simply crave open space, this block supports a slower, more grounded way of life.

A 120sqm high-stud shed with workshop, gantry and chain hoist, plus a 48sqm lean-to, provides the ultimate holding space for the big toys - boats, bikes, or machinery - and all the room you need to tinker, build, or store with ease.
Located near the welcoming Ohauiti and Oropi communities and the well-regarded Oropi School nearby, you’ll enjoy rural peace with a sense of connection.

If you're ready to unplug from the grid, escape the noise, and embrace a lifestyle that gives more than it takes, this isn’t just a home - it’s your blueprint for a better way of being.

Take your pick, four sections to choose from!

This is a rare and rather flexible offering where you can buy a slice, or go all in - the choice is entirely yours.

What's on the table?
Four vacant lots (and a residentially-zoned building, listed separately) all with their own titles and zoned Rural Residential:

Lot 1 - 1ha
Lot 2 - 1.2ha
Lot 3 - 1ha
Lot 4 - 1ha

Each section offers its own potential, but you'll need to roll up your sleeves and do your due diligence. A few quirks come with the territory: the land appears to sit within a flood overlay (so minimum build heights apply), and you'll need to think about septic systems and water tanks. There's an easement over the driveway towards the old racecourse, that includes the rights to convey electricity and telecommunications, but as always, independent advice is key!

Boundary lines are indicative only.
