Character, Views & Room to Breathe

If you've found yourself driving past townhouse after townhouse, dreaming of more space, more privacy and fewer neighbours within earshot, this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for.

Positioned on an impressive yet manageable 2,920m² section, this distinctive lifestyle property delivers the space, privacy and freedom people move to the country for, without sacrificing proximity to the city. Less than five minutes from Glenview Shopping Centre and everyday amenities, it offers a lifestyle that is becoming increasingly difficult to secure this close to Hamilton.

Constructed in the 1970s and architecturally inspired, the home possesses a character and individuality rarely found in today's market. The current owners advise that the property was originally built with Chinese feng shui principles in mind, with thoughtful design elements incorporated throughout. The result is a home with genuine personality, warmth and a connection to its surroundings that sets it apart from more conventional homes.

Spread across multiple levels, the floorplan provides flexibility and functionality in equal measure. Upstairs accommodates three bedrooms, a family bathroom, separate toilet and a master bedroom with ensuite. The entry level welcomes you through a generous foyer and includes an office with its own toilet that is currently utilised as a bedroom, along with internal access garaging and laundry facilities.

Multiple living areas create versatility that is increasingly difficult to find. The kitchen, dining and family living spaces enjoy a wonderful connection to the grounds, allowing you to remain connected with outdoor activities while going about everyday life. A spectacular second living room forms the heart of the lower level, featuring soaring angled ceilings, a fireplace and proportions rarely seen in modern homes. Whether entertaining guests, accommodating a growing family, work-from-home arrangements or simply enjoying room to spread out, this space offers endless possibilities.

Step outside and you'll quickly appreciate what makes this property so special. The grounds are large enough to deliver the lifestyle experience buyers crave, yet manageable enough to avoid the workload often associated with larger lifestyle blocks. From the decking and elevated living spaces, expansive views stretch across the surrounding landscape toward Pirongia, creating a picturesque backdrop that changes with the seasons and delivers stunning sunsets year-round.

Recent improvements include new flooring throughout and a complete interior repaint, allowing buyers to move in and enjoy immediately while still retaining scope to further modernise and add value over time. Practical features include triple-car garaging, a 25,000-litre partially buried rainwater storage system with modern pump and three-stage filtration, and a septic system servicing the property.

Families will particularly appreciate zoning for the highly regarded Rukuhia School, a sought-after option that continues to draw buyers to this tightly held area. Other nearby schools include Glenview School, Deanwell School and Tamahere Model Country School. The property is also well positioned for Waikato Hospital, Hamilton Airport, Resthills Park and key transport links via State Highways 3 and 21.

Lifestyle properties of this size and location rarely become available. Offering immediate possession and the opportunity for a fast settlement, this is a chance to secure a unique home that delivers space, privacy, views and potential in equal measure.

Private viewings are available and the property files for this listing can be downloaded directly from the listing on the Lugtons website.

Solid Home and Minor Dwelling - Truly Special

You can build a home, but landscapes like this take decades to create. Mature trees, sweeping lawns, picturesque gardens and a meandering tree-lined driveway combine to create an arrival that immediately captures the imagination.

•Solid Concrete Block Construction
•Recently Refurbished Residence
•Home & One-Bedroom Minor Dwelling
•Stunning Established Gardens & Grounds
•15 Minutes to Albany & Private School

Inspired by travels through Europe and affectionately known as La Maison - French for “The House” - this substantial concrete block manor draws influence from both French and Italian country estates. Recently refurbished throughout, with newly double-glazed windows on the lower level, it offers timeless character with the comfort and convenience of modern living.

A grand entrance hall with a soaring seven-metre stud sets the tone, while a striking wrought iron staircase leads to the upper level. The primary suite is a true retreat, entered through double doors and complete with a generous walk-in wardrobe, beautifully appointed ensuite and breathtaking views across the grounds.

At the heart of the home, the country-style kitchen features a charming bi-fold servery window, a well-equipped scullery and seamless connection to the everyday living and dining areas. A separate formal lounge and dining room provide additional entertaining spaces, all opening effortlessly to a collection of enchanting courtyards and garden settings.

The inviting fireplace and underfloor heating offer multiple heating options and thoughtful practicalities including a separate laundry and internal-access double garage ensure comfort year-round. A dedicated guest wing enjoys excellent indoor-outdoor flow, while the separate office opens to its own courtyard, ideal for those working from home.

Separate from the main residence, the one-bedroom minor dwelling offers excellent flexibility, featuring open plan living and a versatile additional space suitable as a home office, nursery or dressing room. Whether accommodating extended family, guests or generating supplementary income, it provides valuable options for modern living.

Beyond the home, the grounds are nothing short of magical. An olive grove, raised vegetable gardens, giant chessboard and tranquil pond are woven throughout the landscape, creating a setting that feels both established and utterly serene.

Now awaiting its next custodians, La Maison offers a lifestyle rarely found in Auckland. Positioned on a quiet, leafy avenue surrounded by quality homes, it evokes the charm and romance of the European countryside while remaining just 15 minutes from Albany Westfield, motorway access and leading schools including Kristin School and Pinehurst School.

Nearby lifestyle destinations include Coatesville, Okura and Albany.

The Lifestyle You've Always Imagined

A rare entry level lifestyle proposition within one of the Waikato's most coveted lifestyle addresses. Opportunities like this don't come along often — and when they do, they don't last.

Tucked at the end of a quiet no-exit lane, offering 7,336m² (more or less) of French provincial-inspired grounds, a beautifully reimagined home, and a location that simply ticks every box.

Privately hedged and established, the grounds here feel like a world of their own. Flat lawns roll between mature plantings, tranquil ponds punctuate the landscape, and somewhere in the background, children are playing hide and seek. This is lifestyle living at its most effortless — and with the scale on offer, there's even the possibility of a minor dwelling, subject to council consent.

Walk to Punnet Eatery for your morning coffee. Stroll to Tamahere village for everyday essentials. And rest easy knowing you're in zone for the much-loved Tamahere Model Country School. The community here is something people don't easily leave.

Originally a Lockwood, this home has been entirely reimagined — cedar-clad extensions, skylights flooding the interior with natural light, refreshed flooring, and a palette chosen to lift and brighten every room. The result is a home that feels both characterful and contemporary, grounded and full of warmth.

At its heart sits a cosy woodburner — the natural gathering point for family life. The clever step-down lounge extension creates a sense of separation without isolation, drawing you into a space that feels connected to both the home and the garden beyond. Above, a mezzanine floor offers a quiet perch — the ideal home office, library, or creative retreat.

The kitchen is well-appointed with excellent storage, and those signature picture-frame windows frame the very best of the outdoors — making even the everyday feel like something worth savouring.

The primary suite occupies the second storey, offering elevated views across the manicured grounds, a generous walk-in robe, and a private ensuite. Two further bedrooms and a family bathroom sit downstairs, while throughout the home, stacker doors and floor-to-ceiling glazing blur the line between inside and out in the most beautiful way.

Separate from the main house, a fourth bedroom with its own ensuite provides exceptional versatility — a guest suite, a teenage retreat, a work-from-home sanctuary. Whatever your household needs, this space adapts.

The double garage adds practical storage, and the grounds do the rest.

Partially double glazed, well-insulated, and finished with Colorsteel roofing, this is a genuinely cost-effective entry point into Tamahere lifestyle living. Whether you're drawn by the character, the location, the school zone, or simply the opportunity to put your own mark on something already wonderful — our owners have loved this home deeply, and it's ready for the next chapter.

Tamahere entry-level opportunities at this scale are rare. We encourage your inspection. Contact us today to arrange your viewing.

Prepare to be captivated by the breathtaking views and exceptional lifestyle on offer at this stunning property. Every aspect of this remarkable home has been thoughtfully designed to create the ultimate family retreat and entertainer's paradise.

The exterior landscaping, outdoor living spaces, and pool area are simply extraordinary. Featuring a sophisticated blend of granite paving and expansive timber decking, the outdoor areas flow seamlessly between a series of beautifully crafted entertaining zones. No detail has been overlooked, right down to the custom-built outdoor fireplace that creates the perfect setting for year-round enjoyment.

The impressive outdoor amenities continue with a large shed complete with an adjoining pool room/bar, and shower facilities, perfectly complementing the substantial heated in-ground saltwater swimming pool. Spend your days swimming in the pool, relaxing in the spa, firing up the barbecue, enjoying cocktails at the bar, and gathering with friends and family around the striking Corten steel outdoor fireplace. And when evening arrives, prepare to be amazed by spectacular sunsets that will quite literally take your breath away.

Step inside and discover a beautifully presented home designed for modern living. The spacious open-plan living area flows effortlessly to the outdoors, while the well-appointed kitchen features a scullery with wine fridge and servery windows opening onto the eastern entertaining deck—ideal for alfresco dining and entertainment when conditions are less favourable on the western side of the home.

Accommodation is equally impressive. The guest bedroom opens directly onto the eastern timber deck, creating a peaceful retreat for visitors. The luxurious primary suite boasts a stunning ensuite and an exceptional full dressing and makeup room that will delight those seeking both style and functionality.

From the moment you enter the driveway, you'll know you've arrived somewhere special. The approach to the home and the entrance itself creates a visual masterpiece that sets the tone for what lies beyond.

Vehicle storage is outstanding, with a double internal-access garage complemented by a substantial 4- bay freestanding shed, with oversized doors. Car enthusiasts and boat owners will be absolutely thrilled by the options available.

Further enhancing the property's appeal are additional powered sheds, and animal pens and shelters, offering versatility for hobby farming or lifestyle living. Best of all, the property enjoys complete privacy from both the road and neighbouring properties, creating your own secluded sanctuary.

Properties of this calibre are rarely available and are highly sought after. Contact Stacey today to arrange your private viewing. 0274047595

Whispering lake

If you have been searching for a brand-new lifestyle property that genuinely delivers on every level, this is the one to stop for.
Set on 1.3 hectares (more or less) in the heart of Ararimu, this 2025-built home is everything you would want from a Franklin lifestyle property. The CCC came through in 2026, the finish is exceptional, and it is ready to move into right now.

From the moment you arrive through the automatic gate, the architecture sets the tone. Dark vertical cladding, cedar accents, triple garaging, and a sweeping concrete driveway. This is a home that has been built to impress, and it does not stop at the front door.
Inside, high studs run throughout the entire home, giving every room a sense of volume and light that lifts the whole experience. Distinctive zones have been thoughtfully created across both levels, so the home flows well as one but also functions beautifully in parts. The main living floor is open, light-filled, and designed for the way people want to live. Full-height glazing frames those rolling Ararimu hills on three sides, and the indoor/outdoor connection is seamless across both levels. Dual decks extend the living further, with a timber-lined ceiling and glass balustrade on the upper deck keeping the view completely uninterrupted, and the lower level opening directly out to its own deck as well. Wherever you are in this home, the outside is never far away.

The kitchen is a serious piece of work. A substantial concrete-look island anchors the space, with a cluster of mixed-metal globe pendants overhead that add real personality. Stone benchtops, integrated appliances, and a view straight out to the hills from the sink window. Behind it, the scullery is where the build quality really announces itself. Full-slab gold-veined stone covers the entire splashback wall, lit from below with a continuous strip of under-cabinet lighting. It is the kind of detail you find in architectural homes.
The upper master suite is private and well-proportioned. The walk-in wardrobe is a full joinery fitout in warm timber with LED strip lighting and its own outlook across the deck and paddocks. The ensuite is finished to boutique hotel standard: fully tiled floor to ceiling, heated floors, backlit mirrors, twin heated towel rails, and a double walk-in shower with barn-style sliding glass screen and gunmetal hardware throughout. A second bedroom sits on this level, served by a well-appointed tiled bathroom with heated floors that also functions as a guest bathroom for the main living area.

Head downstairs and the home takes on a different character. A feature textured wall anchors the hallway and sets the tone for the level below. A generous media room, dedicated office, mini bar, and a separate toilet. The second master suite on this level has its own walk-in wardrobe and ensuite finished to the same high standard as upstairs, fully tiled, heated floors, and a freestanding bath that gives it a distinctly indulgent feel. Quality styling and considered finishes carry through every corner of this level, just as they do above.
Out front, tucked beside the garaging, is a self-contained studio with its own entrance, bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and living area, and a private deck. Perfect for extended family, a dependent parent, or longer-stay guests, without anyone being on top of each other.
Few homes are genuinely set up for multi-generational living or co-ownership between friends or family. This one is. Two master suites across two levels, distinctive zones that allow each level to function independently, and a self-contained studio with its own entrance and outdoor space. Everyone has their own place to land, their own privacy, and their own connection to the property. It is a layout that works for grown children coming home, parents who want to be close but not crowded, friends who want to share something special, or guests who stay longer than a weekend.

Outside, 1.3 hectares of clean pasture surrounds Whispering Lake, with the pond and landscaping currently taking shape. Tank water supply. Room to breathe, and plenty of room to make it your own.
This is a home where the quality of the build, the setting, and the layout all land in the same place at the same time. Brand new, beautifully finished, and ready for the next chapter.

Two Homes, One Address, Zero Compromise

Some properties offer a home. This one offers a whole way of living.
Set on four hectares of established Bombay countryside, 417 Paparata Road has been thoughtfully built up over time into something genuinely rare: a property that works beautifully for the whole family, across every generation, without anyone feeling like they are in each other's way.
The main home is a six-bedroom, three-bathroom residence that tells its story in two parts. The original section has warmth and character that only comes with time. A separate lounge with a wood burner and painted brick feature wall is the kind of room that earns its keep on a winter evening. The kitchen and dining flow naturally together, and a separate toilet downstairs keeps the layout practical for busy family life. Upstairs, two further bedrooms share a well-appointed bathroom, tucked away from the main household with their own sense of quiet.
A breezeway connects the original home to a newer extension that lifts the whole property to another level. Four additional bedrooms, including a generous master suite with a large walk-in wardrobe and ensuite, sit alongside a full family bathroom. Both sections of the home have their own wood burner, so warmth is never an afterthought regardless of where you find yourself on a cold night.
The outdoor entertaining at this property is something else entirely. A permanent structure with full roll-up screens creates an all-weather room that connects directly to the main living area. Festoon lights overhead, outdoor heaters, space for a dining table and lounge furniture, and the kind of atmosphere that makes people stay longer than they planned. Beside it, a laser-cut pergola adds a striking design element to the covered patio, dappling light through its botanical pattern across the outdoor dining and lounge areas. Then there is the spa, tucked into the garden with an outlook across the rolling Bombay hills that makes it easy to relax and unwind.
Beyond the entertaining areas, the property rewards those who take the time to walk it. A dedicated foraging garden winds through the grounds, planted with intention and ready to explore. It is the kind of feature that changes how you think about the land around you, and the kind of thing children remember for the rest of their lives.
The second dwelling sits lower on the property, private and completely self-contained. Two bedrooms, an ensuite, a full bathroom and heat pump. A light filled open plan living area with timber-lined walls and its own deck looking out over the gardens and trees. It reads more like a proper home than a granny flat, which is exactly the point. Whether it is for a parent who wants to be nearby without being underfoot, or extended family who need their own space, it delivers that without compromise.
Beyond the two dwellings, the property continues to impress. A large shed, a separate workroom, a garage, a bottom shed with office, arena and stables with a tack room that are ready and waiting for horses. Four hectares of fenced pasture, established gardens, producing orchards, and a sense of space that simply cannot be replicated on a smaller block.
The location adds another dimension. Bombay School is just down the road, and the property sits within the Pukekohe High School zone. Pukekohe's shops and services are 13kms away. With Drury Central train station opening in 2026, connectivity to Auckland is about to improve significantly, and the Drury South Crossing precinct, one of Auckland's largest mixed-use commercial developments, is bringing jobs, services, and long-term growth to the area. State Highway 1 is 5.4km, Auckland Airport is roughly 38kms, and Auckland Central is 49kms.
This is a property that has been lived in and loved, and it shows in every decision that has been made. The infrastructure is here, the space is here, and the lifestyle is ready to hand over to whoever comes next.

Two Homes, One Exceptional Opportunity

Imagine the best of both worlds; a beautifully appointed near new family home and a fully self-contained income-generating dwelling, all on one impressive 2,500sqmplus section just fifteen minutes from Hamilton CBD. Whether you're looking to house extended family on the same property while maintaining independence or simply want a stunning new home with a rental income helping to carry the mortgage, 89 Burbush Road delivers on every level.

The primary residence is everything a modern family could want. Four generous bedrooms, two bathrooms, and expansive open-plan kitchen, dining, and living designed for the way families actually live; busy school mornings, relaxed weekends, and everything in between. Two separate living areas mean there's always room for everyone, whether that's gathering together or finding a quiet corner to unwind. Wide windows frame sweeping views across the lawns to the surrounding countryside, filling every room with natural light and a sense of space that simply can't be replicated in a townhouse or urban section.

The fully self-contained three-bedroom “Cottage” is where this property moves from impressive to exceptional. Private, comfortable, and completely independent, it offers the kind of flexibility modern families and savvy buyers are actively seeking. Whether that is multigenerational living to keep parents or in-laws close without compromising anyone's independence, or a rental income to offset your mortgage with a secondary dwelling that tenants will love. Equally it could be the perfect space for adult children coming home, or older teens who crave independence, or potential guest accommodation so you can host visitors in comfort without anyone feeling underfoot.

Set on a sprawling, private section with room to breathe in every direction, the grounds offer the kind of space that Waikato families relocate for. Children and pets can roam freely. Summer afternoons stretch out around the fire pit beneath an open sky. It's country-inspired living at its most genuine without the compromise of isolation or too much land to maintain.

The Base shopping precinct is just ten minutes away. Hamilton CBD is fifteen minutes. The lifestyle here doesn't ask you to sacrifice convenience; it simply adds something most suburban properties never can.

If multigenerational living or smart dual-income ownership is on your radar, this is the one to see first.
