Where heritage meets modern luxury

Originally designed in 1914 by celebrated architect Louis Hay, the residence has been transformed by only its second owner through a meticulous four-year restoration and redesign, creating a timeless home of elegance, comfort, and enduring quality. Set amid park-like grounds at the foot of the Havelock Hills, this extraordinary estate is a rare fusion of heritage architecture and modern refinement.

Discreetly positioned, the residence captures sweeping views across the Heretaunga Plains to the ocean, stretching to the distant ranges and even Mt Ruapehu, snow-clad in winter. Turning inland, the outlook embraces the Havelock Hills and Te Mata Peak, while by night the twinkling lights of Hastings and Napier create a captivating panorama.

Behind its stately façade lies a grand home of approximately 540 square metres (internal) offering five bedrooms, four living areas, and six bathrooms plus powder room. Every space is crafted with care - the materials, textures, and craftsmanship telling a story of both legacy and renewal.

Solid concrete construction with pebble roughcast exterior and newly reinforced internal walls ensure lasting strength, while earthquake strengthening and modern insulation bring peace of mind.

Inside, the interiors celebrate both the old and the new - bandsawn European oak flooring underfoot, limestone tiling from France, and bespoke joinery in smoked Finnish oak, and Italian imported marble. Heating and comfort are exceptional: a new Viessmann diesel system provides individually controlled warmth throughout, complemented by three open fireplaces, underfloor heating in bathrooms, and dual heat pumps in the pool pavilion.

The bespoke kitchen and wine bar, designed and crafted in Amsterdam, is a triumph of function and form - rich smoked oak cabinetry from Finland paired with Italian marble benchtops and Gaggenau and Wolf appliances. A large scullery with additional dishwasher and sink supports effortless entertaining, while a dedicated wine cabinet and tall wine fridge make this the ideal setting for connoisseurs and hosts alike.

The home's grand entrance hall welcomes guests with a sweeping staircase and a lift to the upper level. Multiple living areas flow beautifully from formal to relaxed - from the serene drawing room and elegant dining area, to the light-filled family room and adjoining sunroom that captures year round sunshine.

Upstairs, the primary suite commands sweeping views and opens to a covered verandah. Two luxurious en-suites and a large dressing room with custom cabinetry provide indulgent privacy. Guest suites are generous and beautifully appointed, one with its own terrace and tea station. Additional bedrooms open to covered verandahs or terrace with sweeping views, while a flexible fifth room serves as a study, TV lounge or bedroom.

Outdoors, an Italianate courtyard with open fireplace, rose-draped pergola, limestone paving, and a tranquil water feature invites gatherings and long summer evenings beneath the stars. The pool pavilion mirrors the home's design integrity with two rooms, a full bathroom, and a wooden interior sauna. The 15-metre heated swimming pool and custom spa are framed by French limestone paving - an oasis of calm and leisure, fully fenced for peace of mind.

Two original cottages complete the estate: A two-bedroom character cottage designed by William Gummer (1910) and a three-bedroom cottage, with opportunity for rejuvenation. Rolling lawns, mature trees, and thoughtfully designed irrigated gardens create a living landscape that evolves beautifully through the seasons. Fully fenced paddocks with water troughs currently have sheep grazing to control the grass.

This is more than a home - it's an estate of architectural significance, crafted for those who value history, design, and lasting quality. A truly outstanding offering, restored with vision and executed with uncompromising detail, where historic charm and modern elegance create the ultimate lifestyle.

Three Titles. One Extraordinary Opportunity.

Set high above the shimmering waters of Lake Ōkāreka, with the commanding presence of Mount Tarawera forming a dramatic natural backdrop, this is a landholding of rare scale, beauty and versatility.

Offered by tender on Wednesday 25 February at 3.00pm, this remarkable property spans three separate titles, delivering a combined lifestyle offering that is quite simply unmatched. One remarkable offering, or two exceptional opportunities - 171 and 191 Millar Road may be secured together or separately.

The journey begins through a stylish electric gate, followed by a picturesque 1.7 kilometre private climb, winding gently through established plantings and rolling hills. The sense of arrival is unmistakable - anticipation builds with every turn.

At the summit sits the primary residence at 191 Millar Road -a breathtaking 337 square metre, two-level home that has undergone a superb transformation, with no expense spared and every detail thoughtfully curated. The view across Lake Ōkāreka is nothing short of spectacular - expansive, elevated and ever-changing surrounded by native planting and the sound of native birdsong year round.

Cathedral timber sarked ceilings immediately draw the eye, guiding attention to the striking picture window where the lake appears to stretch endlessly below. There is a genuine sense of floating above the water.

The main living pavilion is exceptional - a grand yet welcoming space incorporating a central dining area, generous lounge, and an intimate nook overlooking the resort-style inground swimming pool and spa. This zone evokes the atmosphere of a private retreat - relaxed, luxurious and effortlessly connected to its surroundings.

The designer kitchen and scullery are beautifully appointed, perfectly laid out for both everyday living and entertaining, and equipped with all the features expected of a gourmet space - all while enjoying sweeping lake views.

The master suite is a private sanctuary, positioned separately for peace and privacy. A walk-in robe, elegant ensuite and sublime morning outlook complete this lush and restful space. The main level also incorporates two further bedrooms and a well-appointed family bathroom.
Upstairs, a fully self-contained wing offers outstanding flexibility - two bedrooms, a lounge, kitchenette and bathroom - ideal for extended family, guests or independent living.

Oversized internal garaging and utility garaging complete the primary dwelling, providing excellent storage and practicality.
Across this approximately 54 hectare title, 21ha of easy country is deer fenced and divided into 20 well-managed paddocks, with the balance in established native and production forestry, all thoughtfully configured to balance productive use with natural beauty.

The property is well supported by an established easy care livestock operation, currently running, 60 Red Deer breeding hinds and replacements, finishing 55 venison annually and 12 rising two-year-old steers. The grazing area and facilities could alternatively run sheep or cattle.

The second title, 171 Millar Road, hosts the much-loved “Red Barn” - an exceptional and character-rich accommodation option sleeping up to fourteen guests. A proven holiday retreat, this 9.5 hectare (more or less) title also presents Airbnb potential, offering both income and future flexibility, or a unique family home for extended family.

The third title presents a truly rare opportunity – 8,015sqm (more or less) of flat, easy bare land at Lake Ōkāreka, an increasingly scarce commodity. Whether held as a strategic landbank, lifestyle addition or future development opportunity, its value is undeniable.

This is not simply a property - it is a legacy offering. A place of scale, privacy and extraordinary outlooks, where lifestyle, land and location combine in perfect harmony.

Three titles. One vision. An opportunity that may not be repeated.

Adding to the charm is Kowhai Cottage, a one-bedroom hideaway with Macrocarpa-lined ceilings and beams, a cosy stone fireplace, and a deck overlooking the grounds. Ideal as an Airbnb couples retreat, art studio, or work-from-home space, it provides endless possibilities.
The property also includes potting sheds and shade houses from a former native plant nursery. Also of interest are a fertiliser bunker (converted to a fully enclosed shed) and the original airstrip, remnants of the original farm adding a touch of history and character. Walking tracks meander through magnificent Kauri, Totara, and Stringy Bark trees, creating a serene park-like environment for reflection, recreation, and connection with nature.
We don’t often find the perfect trifecta of natural beauty in one location. This exceptional property offers sweeping views, complete tranquility and enviable privacy – alongside the exciting potential to work from home by establishing and Airbnb couples retreat and/or a native plant nursery. The foundations are already in place; all that’s needed is your vision to bring it to life.
