Views, home, land, shed. Done.

From the moment you pull up to the auto gates, this place makes an impression. The elevated site opens views that stretch across the countryside, and they stay with you from the moment you arrive to the moment you leave. There is something about a property that greets you like this. You just feel it.

Through the gates, you drive straight into the internal garage. Secure, convenient, and a reassuring start to a home that has been thought through properly.

Step inside, and the ground floor sets the tone. There is a dedicated office right here, ideal if you are working from home and need somewhere to close the door and focus. Bedroom four sits on this level too, perfect for guests, a teenager, or extended family who want their own corner of the house.

Move through, and the home opens right up. Open plan kitchen, dining, and lounge, all connected the way a family home should be. The kitchen is built around engineered stone benchtops, Bosch double ovens, and a bold red glass splashback that gives the space real character. It is a kitchen that works hard and looks good doing it.

The indoor-outdoor flow takes you straight out to the saltwater pool and entertaining area, with those rural views sitting right behind it. On a warm evening with family or friends around, this is exactly where you want to be. It earns its place every single day of summer.
Upstairs, you have three bedrooms and a study. The master has its own ensuite, and with three bathrooms spread across the home, the morning rush runs smoothly. The views follow you up here too. Open rural outlook from the moment you wake up. It does not get old.

Back outside, and this is where a lot of buyers get genuinely excited. The shed is approximately 20m x 10m, wide span, three-phase power, and two hoists that may be available by negotiation. Whether it is a car collection, a serious workshop, boat storage, or something else entirely, the infrastructure is already here. And out on the lawn, there is a solid timber fort and climbing structure for the kids. It gets used.

The property runs a bore and solar hot water, and those auto gates with a camera keep everything ticking over with minimal fuss. Genuinely set up for rural living, not just styled to look like it.

The land runs to 4.4 hectares, currently carrying beef cattle and sheep. Manageable and productive, and exactly the right size for anyone wanting a real connection to the land without taking on a full farming operation.

Location-wise, you are under seven kilometres to State Highway 1 at Ramarama, around seventeen to Pukekohe, and roughly forty-six to the Auckland CBD. Auckland Airport sits about thirty-four kilometres away. If you are connected to the growth happening in Drury, the new industrial zone, and the wider business hub taking shape out here, this commute makes real sense. And with the new Drury train station under construction, that access is only going to improve.

Ararimu and Ramarama Primary schools are both close by.

This is the kind of property that is hard to find and harder to leave. Come and see it for yourself.

Kauri Creek: The pinnacle of Abel Tasman living

There are very few places left where children can spend their days exploring streams, building huts in the bush, cooling off in crystal-clear water and growing up surrounded by nature. Kauri Creek offers exactly that.

Nestled on approximately 12 hectares in the heart of Marahau, this remarkable property feels worlds away from the pressures of modern life, yet remains within easy reach of Richmond and Nelson and only minutes from the gateway to the Abel Tasman National Park.

The land tells a story of restoration, stewardship and connection to nature. Native trees planted over many years now attract an abundance of birdlife, while a crystal-clear creek with a sandy bottom winds through the property, feeding a series of picturesque natural pools that become the centre of summer memories. Boardwalk bridges cross the water, pathways weave through native bush, and elevated paddocks capture beautiful views towards the sea and coastline.

This is a property designed for those who dream of a different way of living.

For families seeking a more sustainable and alternative lifestyle, the combination of productive grazing land, established infrastructure, reliable water supply, native plantings and multiple accommodation options provides an opportunity to create a way of life that is increasingly difficult to find. Particularly appealing to those who homeschool their children, the property offers a unique environment where learning extends beyond the classroom and into nature itself. Children can learn from the land, animals and surrounding environment, while parents enjoy the privacy, freedom and self-sufficiency that come with owning a property of this scale.

For extended families or groups of like-minded friends, the tiny homes create flexibility rarely available in today's market. Currently, two tiny homes hold consent for residential use of up to two months per year and are connected to a consented wastewater system. Future owners may wish to explore obtaining further consents for permanent residential use, subject to the relevant council approvals. Whether accommodating extended family, creating guest accommodation, or establishing a private retreat, the property offers exceptional versatility and future potential.

For those seeking a holiday retreat or future retirement destination, Marahau continues to be one of New Zealand's most desirable coastal locations. The beaches, boating opportunities, walking tracks, kayaking, and natural beauty of the Abel Tasman attract visitors from around the world, while the property's unique setting provides a peaceful sanctuary away from the crowds. It is the perfect base from which to launch the boat, spend the day exploring the golden bays and secluded coves of the Abel Tasman, or head out on the jetski for unforgettable adventures with family and friends.

Properties such as this are exceptionally rare, offering a combination of usable land, native bush, water, privacy, and accommodation options. With a consented building platform already in place and valid until 2029, this could be the perfect opportunity to create your own Grand Designs-inspired home in one of New Zealand's most sought-after lifestyle destinations.

With eight fenced paddocks, established farm infrastructure, consented wastewater systems, irrigation, sheds, storage, and a secure water supply already in place, much of the hard work has already been done.

Kauri Creek is not simply a property. It is an opportunity to create a lifestyle centred around nature, family, wellbeing, and freedom. A place where mornings begin with birdsong, afternoons are spent beside the creek, and every season brings new reasons to appreciate the land.

For some buyers, this will be a property. For the right buyer, it will be a vision for a completely different way of life.
