Exceptional Hunua Homestead on 30 Hectares

There is a moment, just after you turn off the road and the house comes into view, when something in you quietly settles. You haven't even stepped inside yet. But you already feel it.
Set on 30 hectares of gently rolling Hunua countryside, just 50 kilometres south of Auckland, this is not simply a property. It is the life you have been working towards.

A Home of Genuine Distinction
Step through the entry and the house opens around you. All 562 square metres of it, designed not just for family life, but for a life lived beautifully. The kitchen, dining and living spaces flow together with an ease that only comes from thoughtful design. The dining room, with its cathedral ceiling, draws the eye upward and gives the space a sense of occasion that sets the tone for every meal. An electric fireplace with a beautiful wood effect anchors the heart of the home, casting warmth through both the living and dining rooms on winter evenings. In summer, the bifold doors fold completely away to the outdoor cedar-lined pavilion, and the heated saltwater pool beyond all become one long, effortless space.
And when the evening cools, the outdoor fireplace comes into its own. Gathered around it with guests, the cedar pavilion becomes a room without walls. The kind of entertaining space that makes people stay longer than they planned.
The kitchen is exceptional. High-gloss cabinetry, a generous engineered stone island and benchtops, Bosch appliances, and a gas hob for the main kitchen. A separate scullery with its own gas hob means the serious cooking stays out of sight when the occasion calls for it. There is a formal lounge for quiet evenings, a rumpus room for the children, and a layout that gives everyone space to be together, or to find their own corner.
Seven bedrooms, four ensuites, two family bathrooms and two separate powder rooms comfortably accommodating extended family gatherings, without ever feeling full. Two of the bedrooms feature cathedral ceilings, adding a quiet sense of volume and light that makes waking up here feel like something.
The finishes are considered and luxurious, from the beautifully tiled ensuites to the backlit mirrors that feel more like a boutique retreat than family bathrooms.
Heated floors in every bathroom. Zoned central heating throughout. Double glazing. A master suite with its own private patio, somewhere to slip out with a coffee before the day begins. A dedicated home office, a substantial laundry, an internal-access double garage with a separate workshop, and an additional garage for the toys.
Thirty-six solar panels with SoleX battery storage keep the home running quietly and efficiently. A reliable bore supplies the property with a consistent, independent water source. The details are right in every direction you look.

Thirty Hectares of Hunua
Step outside and take a breath. Productive pasture rolls away from the house. Native bush carries birdsong through the afternoon. A stream winds through the lower reaches of the property, unhurried, like everything else here.
This is the kind of land that becomes part of how your children remember growing up. Space for orchards, gardens, ponies, or simply the freedom that only land of this scale can provide.

The Best of Both Worlds
The Auckland Airport is 38 kilometres away. Auckland Central is 50. Close enough for Monday morning travel. Far enough that on a clear night you can see more stars than you can count.
Properties of this quality, this scale, and this setting are rare. The families who find them tend to stay a long time.
Come and see it for yourself. We're confident you'll feel it the moment you arrive.
Private viewings available by appointment.

From the moment you arrive via the curved driveway, framed by tropical nikau palms, there is a feeling that this is somewhere truly special. Landscaped gardens with mature plantings and even your own private forest create a setting that feels both tranquil and enchanting. Elevated to capture an extraordinary panorama, the views stretch across Napier Hill, the iconic Marine Parade pines, the sparkling Pacific Ocean, and onward to the twinkling wind turbines on the distant hills.
Originally designed in the 1970s by renowned architect Guy Natusch and thoughtfully renovated in the 1990s, the home is a superb example of enduring design.

Ranch sliders provide seamless flow to the landscaped gardens beyond. A separate formal living room offers a refined retreat, complete with extensive built-in timber cabinetry, while a third living area - currently used as a seventh bedroom - could equally serve as a games room, home office, studio, or business space.
Six generously proportioned bedrooms provide exceptional flexibility for family living, guests, or multi-generational accommodation. Each room enjoys a sense of space and calm, with thoughtfully positioned windows capturing natural light and outlooks across the surrounding landscape - ensuring every bedroom feels connected to the home’s elevated setting.
Outside, the grounds are as practical as they are beautiful.

Parking is exceptionally well catered for, with a four-car open carport and ample additional off-street space for family and guests.
This is a home of remarkable character and versatility, where architecture, landscape, and breathtaking views come together to create something truly memorable.

Invest Now. Options Later - 7.014ha

Situated on the edge of Blenheim, this versatile semi-rural holding is perfectly placed between Burleigh and Springlands, an area continuing to evolve as one of the region’s most sought-after growth corridors. Spanning 7.014ha of flat land, the scale and location make it a potentially outstanding option for investors, developers, lifestyle buyers, or those seeking a vineyard asset in a premium setting. Currently zoned Rural Environment, the property is an established Sauvignon Blanc vineyard with 2.8m row spacing and an approximate 6.5ha canopy, supported by a reliable water supply and existing viticulture infrastructure. With potential future possibilities (subject to council requirements), it also presents a compelling land-bank opportunity, just minutes to Springlands and Westwood Shopping centres, providing everyday amenities.

Opportunities of this size so close to town are increasingly rare, with surrounding smaller holdings being tightly held and steadily absorbed over time. Whether your focus is yield, long-term capital growth, or securing a strategic site for future development, this is a straightforward property with clear upside and immediate possession available.

The vines are approximately ten years old, with consistent production of around 15 tonnes per hectare in recent seasons. With no sheds or buildings, the site is clean and uncomplicated, ideal for buyers wanting a manageable viticulture portfolio, a blank canvas to create a lifestyle base, or a low-maintenance holding to retain and optimise. For those looking longer term, there is also scope to mothball or remove the vines, should you prefer to land bank or reposition the property for future opportunities.

A property offering location, scale and flexibility this close to Blenheim is tightly contested. To appreciate the options on offer, contact me to arrange a personal and private viewing.

Fifty Years Well Lived

Meander up the well-planted driveway and you already know this place is something a little different. Mature trees frame your arrival, the grounds open around you, and an English-style residence comes into view. It feels like coming home.

Set on 8.4 hectares of mainly mature native bush, this is countryside living steeped in genuine character. The land wraps around you, the bush is established and beautiful, and there's enough open ground for the kids to explore, for a couple of paddocks, for calf club pets, for weddings on the lawn. This family did all of that here, for fifty years.

The home itself is full of personality. Vaulted timber ceilings, exposed brick fireplace, a sunroom that connects the indoors to the deck and the pool beyond. A kitchen that's already been updated. Two bedrooms on the ground floor, two bathrooms, two attic bedrooms with real potential, plus a garage with a spacious loft above, giving you options for guests, a studio, a teenage retreat, or whatever the next chapter calls for. The bones are good and the character is real.

But let's be honest. This is a home that's ready for new hands. It needs a full makeover, and that's exactly the opportunity. Buyers with vision and a willingness to roll up their sleeves will find plenty to work with here. The setting alone is worth the visit.

Fifty years of memories live in these walls. Children growing up. Summers by the pool. The kind of life that only a place like this can hold.

Now it's ready to do it all again, for someone new.
If country living with real character appeals to you, come and have a look.
