Room to Grow, Space to Breathe

Imagine finding the country lifestyle you’ve always dreamed of for your family, with room to grow, space to explore and the freedom to live life a little differently.

Set in a peaceful country setting, 58A Downer Access Road brings together the best of rural living with the space and flexibility modern families need.

The substantial single level, brick and tile five-bedroom home offers plenty of room for a growing family, with the versatility to accommodate extended family or multigenerational living, giving everyone space to come together while enjoying their own independence.

Beyond the home, there is room to embrace a more self-sufficient way of life.

And while the setting offers a welcome escape from the city, Silverdale and Albany are less than 30 minutes away, with a local school, Kaukapakapa café, historic pub and village community a short stroll away adding to the lifestyle appeal.

The ultimate weekend bolthole

1188E Tinopai Road is the sort of property Auckland buyers dream about finding - 12.4707 hectares (more or less) of quality coastal grazing land, direct shared access to the Kaipara Harbour, and some of Northland's best fishing virtually on your doorstep. All of this sits just around 1 hour 45 minutes from the North Shore, making it realistic as a weekend escape now and a permanent move later.

The land is well set up and immediately usable, with good fencing and troughs servicing the paddocks. There is enough scale here to run stock and enjoy a genuine rural lifestyle, without taking on an overwhelming farming operation. A 1/7 share in a beautiful native bush block adds another dimension to the property, giving you space to explore, unwind and enjoy the birdlife and natural environment that makes this part of the Kaipara so special.

For fishermen and boaties, the location is a real standout. Direct shared water access opens up the Kaipara Harbour and its huge network of channels, bays and fishing grounds. Launch the boat, chase snapper, set the rods, or simply spend the day exploring the harbour before heading back to your own private block. It is the sort of setup that makes Friday afternoon traffic north feel worthwhile.

The vendors have already created a useful base with small sheds and an outdoor kitchen area, while house plans were previously submitted to Council before their own plans changed. This gives incoming buyers a great starting point to create their own coastal home, cabin retreat or future family base, subject to the usual approvals.

For Aucklanders looking for more land, more freedom and a genuine escape from city life, this is a compelling proposition. Use it as a weekend bolthole, run a few animals, or be hands-off and have it grazed by a neighbour. Build when the time is right, or simply secure a quality coastal landholding for the future. Opportunities that combine usable land, harbour access and this level of proximity to Auckland are becoming increasingly difficult to find.

Purchase price is plus GST (if any).

The magic of waterfront

Imagine two hectares of extraordinary estuary-side land, private boat launching, an exclusive gated setting and the opportunity to create an exceptional architectural residence.

Tern Point totals 127 hectares, bounded by the Pacific ocean and Mangawhai estuary, with 84 hectares in farmland, communal olive grove and walking tracks for residents. With a gated entry you have peace of mind and the tree-lined drive in welcomes you to your piece of paradise.

The Boatshed is a property that offers far more than a place to live with peaceful, rural surrounds - the balance of your two hectares is in the neighbouring paddock as part of the working farm meaning no neighbours building on that side.

The existing, spacious two-level apartment-style dwelling offers great accommodation to continue to enjoy as is or utilise while designing and building a main residence. The ground level living area offers roomy open plan living with a modern kitchen keeping the house chef connected with family and guests as food is being prepared. With Bosch oven, micro-combi, induction hob, dual sinks and Dektron engineered stone kitchen bench, creating meals will be a joy. Triple and double bi-folds open out to two aspects of the home allowing enjoyment of sun and shade as desired and handy when the freshly caught fish is sizzling on the barbie. The high stud provides an airy, light filled living area and a heat pump provides ambient temperature all year round.

The adjacent bathroom is great when heading back in off the water, whether swimming, skiing, sailing or fishing and the additional toilet in the upstairs bedroom offers further convenience. The bedroom is expansive with room for seating to enjoy a good book, whether inside or out on the balcony, taking in the sights and sounds of being near the water.

The capacious, internal high stud garage provides secure storage for your boat, and when heading back in off the water there are jets in the drive to wash the underside of the boat and an outdoor shower for the family. There's dedicated boat launching for residents and this communal area includes a shed to store kayaks and paddleboards, a children's playground plus gazebo and picnic tables to sit and enjoy the view. Boaties will love it here, whether a jet-ski, sealegs, or something in between. Fun in or on the water is what coastal living is all about and for landlubbers, Te Arai, Tara Iti and Mangawhai golf courses are only 30 or 15 minutes away plus there are weekend markets, a fabulous range of eateries, vineyards and boutique shops.

The foundations for an exceptional lifestyle are already here and with approximately 6,000sqm (more or less) to develop and enjoy, the exciting opportunity lies at the front of the property where you can build your dream residence - perfectly positioned to capture expansive views down the estuary and make the most of this remarkable waterfront setting.

Make the time to come and view this property of promise where weekends feel longer, mornings feel better and life moves at your pace.

The art of a beautiful Hawke’s Bay life

An idyllic country setting on the doorstep of Havelock North, one of the North Island’s most sought-after villages. Here, life is framed by the beauty of Te Mata Peak, walks through the redwoods, local cycle trails and celebrated wineries, including Craggy Range. The village brings together excellent dining, boutique shopping and a welcoming community, with Napier, Hastings, Hawke’s Bay Airport and a choice of coastal destinations all within easy driving distance. Whether you’re discovering Hawke’s Bay from abroad or returning to make it home, there is so much to look forward to.

At the end of a tree-lined driveway, with views across the hills and out to the Peak, this exceptional property offers the privacy, peace and space to enjoy it. The striking cedar-clad entrance hints at what awaits within, where thoughtful architecture and impressive finishes make you want to settle, to pause, to simply be. An extensive renovation, complemented by thoughtfully designed new additions, has created a home with clean lines, warm textures and an abundance of natural light. A bespoke cedar and glass door opens to American oak floors, leading into generous open-plan living. Expansive double glazing frames the landscape, while the sculptural Stovax wood burner makes a striking centrepiece, bringing warmth and presence to the room.

The kitchen is beautifully considered, with premium finishes, a show-stopping scullery and an integrated laundry. There is an ease to the layout, whether it’s just the two of you at home or a full house for the weekend. Living extends naturally outdoors, where a series of beautifully connected spaces offers something for every season. The in-ground pool and surrounding terraces invite long summer afternoons, while the covered entertaining area with adjustable louvres provides a sheltered setting for dining and gathering throughout the year. The substantial outdoor fireplace adds another wonderful dimension, particularly as the evenings cool. A long lunch, a quiet swim or a glass of wine as the light changes over the hills; you can picture yourself enjoying it all.

One of my favourite features is the almost secret primary suite. Tucked behind a discreet door, it feels wonderfully private, with a beautifully finished ensuite and, of course, a walk-in wardrobe. You can see the thought that has gone into creating a space entirely your own.

The guest wing brings its own sense of resort living. A bedroom with ensuite, separate lounge, private entrance, parking and patio give visitors room to relax and enjoy their independence. It’s a particularly appealing arrangement for family coming to stay a little longer, perhaps travelling from a little further away. What a memorable place to arrive and feel immediately rested.

Upstairs, two generous bedrooms each have an ensuite and stunning views, alongside a versatile loft-style room that lends itself to play, hobbies or somewhere for younger family members to spread out, hide away and let their imaginations fill the afternoon.

The grounds are equally inviting, with established landscaping, generous lawns and a lovely flow between the different areas. Raised vegetable gardens, an orchard and greenhouse offer plenty for those who enjoy growing their own, while the beautifully maintained outdoor spaces provide room to entertain, relax or simply enjoy the peace of the countryside.

Access to bore water, substantial water storage and a purified water system provide valuable water security, while solar power supported by a Tesla battery offers greater energy efficiency. A double garage and separate storeroom provide further storage or workshop options, while the additional shedding is exceptional. Both three-bay and two-bay sheds offer substantial room for vehicles, equipment and interests that need a little more space, with a further smaller shed providing practical storage for the mower and firewood.

Beyond the home and established grounds, the flat, fertile land is currently leased for cropping, sheep grazing and hay baling. There is the option to continue these arrangements or take a more hands-on approach, with equestrian potential adding further appeal.

For me, it’s the care behind this home that makes it so memorable. Spaces to come together, places to quietly withdraw, and beautiful surroundings that become part of your everyday life. A remarkable place to call home, with the freedom to enjoy Hawke’s Bay at your own pace.

I’d love to show you through. Call to arrange an appointment.

Private Paradise - Nature is Your Neighbour

Tranquillity, privacy, birdsong and fresh mountain air. A place to slow down, breathe deeply and truly hear your own thoughts. This is more than a home; it's a lifestyle, and one that my vendors have treasured for the past 17 years.

Tucked away from prying eyes and the everyday bustle of suburbia, this special haven has been the backdrop to a lifetime of precious memories, from raising their child to enjoying time with their grandchildren. Now, as they embark on their next chapter, they invite a new family to discover this remarkable setting and create treasured memories of their own.

Meandering up the tree-lined driveway, you could almost imagine you're heading towards the heights of the Hakarimata Ranges. But as the property comes into view, you're greeted by a scene that feels straight out of a country living magazine. Nestled amongst a beautiful native bush setting, this spacious family home enjoys a wonderful sense of seclusion, with leafy outlooks from every angle.

Step inside and the sense of space immediately welcomes you. A wide entrance hallway, impressive high stud ceilings and exposed beams create warmth, character and a feeling of understated country charm.

The home offers three generous double bedrooms, a separate family room and spacious open-plan living, dining and kitchen areas, providing room for the family to spread out while still enjoying time together.
The country-inspired kitchen feels perfectly at home in its natural surroundings, with generous bench and cupboard space, a large pantry and all the essentials for everyday living and entertaining. A charming office nook provides a quiet corner to catch up on work, settle in with a good book or simply enjoy a peaceful cuppa while taking in the outlook.

When it comes to entertaining, the expansive decking offers an exceptional setting for summer barbecues, family gatherings or simply relaxing amongst the trees. Venture up to the slightly elevated garden area, where a small pool invites you to unwind while soaking up the breathtaking bush views. Listen carefully and you may hear the distinctive calls of tÃÆ'…«ÃÆ'Þ« and kererÃÆ'…«, accompanied by the gentle sounds of the stream meandering below.

Beyond the home, the property continues to deliver that wonderful rural feel. The original woodshed and calf-rearing shed remain, adding to the property's character, while the usable land is currently grazed by the neighbours' sheep.

And for families, just imagine the childhood this setting could offer. Adventures by the stream, eeling on a lazy afternoon, tree huts tucked amongst the trees, and endless games of hide-and-seek in a natural playground that most children can only dream of. This is the kind of environment where imaginations run wild and childhood memories are made.

Meticulously cared for and beautifully manicured, the property reflects the pride and attention its owners have invested over the years. A single garage and ample parking at the top of the property provide practical convenience without detracting from the peaceful surroundings.

Yet despite this wonderful sense of escape, convenience remains close at hand, with The Base approximately 14 minutes away by car and easy access to the Waikato Expressway.
If you're yearning for a lifestyle where privacy, nature and family living come together, where the birdsong replaces the traffic noise and the pace of life feels a little more relaxed, this is an opportunity to secure something truly special.

Your own private paradise awaits. Come and experience the magic for yourself.

Exceptional garaging, outlook and privacy

Exceptional garaging is a standout feature here with the generous 240sqm (more or less) floor plan further enhanced by a separate 55sqm (more or less), high stud, fully lined and insulated double garage.
Situated within one of Mangawhai’s newer lifestyle subdivisions, this immaculately presented three bedroom, two bathroom brick and tile home enjoys extensive, sweeping north facing views across native bush to the majestic Brynderwyns beyond.

The light filled open plan living, dining and kitchen area forms the heart of the home. The kitchen features a walk in pantry, abundant storage and generous bench space, all in white, it allows new owners to add their own stamp or enjoy the calming neutrality as is. Architectural bulkhead ceilings add visual interest and extend through to the separate media room or second lounge.
The bedrooms run off the hallway, with two on one side buffered from one another by a family bathroom complete with bath and freestanding shower a separate powder room and a laundry with storage. To the opposite side the master suite enjoys a walk in wardrobe and ensuite. Generous storage throughout includes large hallway cupboards.

The property sits adjacent to additional protected land owned by Bream Tail, meaning the privacy and outlook are safeguarded for years to come.

Architectural character, shaped by the coast

Designed by Min Hall, co-founder of Arthouse Studio, and completed in 2005, this architect-designed residence brings together the enduring character of villa architecture with the comfort of contemporary design.

Custom-made joinery, substantial heritage-style skirting boards and timber-framed windows and doors give the interiors warmth and texture. High ceilings, timber floors and a wraparound verandah establish a sense of character, while north-facing living spaces and expansive double-glazed windows capture natural light and sea views across the Waimea Inlet, where the outlook changes with the tides. The rooftop solar system adds a practical advantage, with the potential to offset daytime electricity use and reduce reliance on grid power.

At the heart of the home, a generous kitchen and separate scullery connect with open-plan living and dining areas. The proportions accommodate both everyday living and larger gatherings, with double doors creating an easy connection to the verandah and outdoors. Underfloor heating, individually controlled in each room, provides year-round comfort, while a substantial wood burner in the lounge and dining area adds warmth and atmosphere.

The master suite is positioned away from the main living areas, offering privacy and an outlook across the inlet, framed by wisteria along the verandah. Corner windows capture the changing light throughout the day, while a walk-in wardrobe concealed behind shuttered doors maintains the home's architectural character. Nearby, a separate office with a built-in wooden desk provides a dedicated workspace.

The remaining two bedrooms occupy a separate wing, with a lockable door allowing this part of the home to function independently when required. Both rooms are generously proportioned and share a large bathroom. One bedroom has previously been used for Airbnb accommodation and has direct verandah access, offering flexibility for extended family, visiting guests or potential short-stay use.

The grounds bring a further dimension to the property. Established heritage fruit trees, orchard plantings, mature gardens and native vegetation reflect years of growth and care, creating a landscape that would take considerable time to establish elsewhere. Combined with the home's scale and its position alongside the Waimea Inlet, the grounds offer a sense of space and privacy with a close connection to the surrounding coastal environment.

Set in Redwood Valley, Richmond is approximately 10 minutes away, with Māpua around seven minutes by car. Schools, shops and supermarkets are within easy reach, while the beaches, art studios, restaurants and wineries of the wider Tasman region are close at hand.

For buyers seeking a lifestyle property near Richmond and Māpua, the appeal lies in the combination of architectural character, sea views and an established landscape. Much of what gives this property its identity is already in place, from the home's distinctive design to the mature grounds that surround it.
