27ha hill country with Tuki Tuki Valley views

This 27-hectare, subdividable property comprises a mix of medium to steep hill country, with elevated areas offering expansive views down the Tuki Tuki River valley, from Mount Erin to Te Mata Peak.

The property was previously planted in radiata pine, which was harvested nine years ago. The land is now predominantly pine, along with manuka, redwoods, Douglas fir, poplars, and various other species. A well-established network of ATV access tracks services the property, and permanent boundary fencing allows for grazing.

The property, fifteen minutes from Havelock North Village, would suit someone seeking an off-grid lifestyle in a private and peaceful setting, the establishment of a glamping business overlooking the Tuki Tuki Valley, or a farm forester, with the growing woodlot offering future income potential.

A lifestyle built around family and views

Welcome to a home where the days start with sun on the deck and finish with a swim, a hot tub, and the sky turning gold over the rural and coastal outlook.

Set on 3725sqm, this north-facing property is all about space, privacy and ease. Arrive through the electric gates and you'll immediately feel that calm, quiet sense of being tucked away - within the boutique Kahu Ridge subdivision surrounded by quality homes and great neighbours.

Architecturally designed and beautifully finished, the home combines Hebel cladding with a cavity system and striking schist feature walls - a look that feels both modern and timeless. Inside, around 280sqm delivers that perfect family balance: four bedrooms, two exquisite bathrooms, and open-plan living that connects people while still allowing space to work and retreat.

At the heart is a stunning kitchen with scullery and quality appliances, flowing through dining and family living, centred around a gas fireplace framed in schist. A separate, spacious media room offers flexibility as a second lounge or movie room, while the dedicated office provides a quiet, practical workspace for working from home or running a business.

But it's the connection to the outdoors that truly elevates this home. Expansive glazing opens wide to create seamless indoor-outdoor living, and the entertaining is next level - two covered alfresco dining areas, a built-in BBQ, a bar fridge, and a mineral swimming pool that turns summer into a season-long staycation. A large lawn provides space for backyard cricket, trampolines, and barefoot play.

There's also ample room for the boat, campervan and jet skis, plus a triple garage to keep everything secure and organised.

While the setting feels wonderfully private and peaceful, everyday convenience is close at hand. Schools, amenities, leisure pursuits, cafes and restaurants are nearby, with easy access to State Highway 2. Te Puna is 5.6km away, Bethlehem Town Centre 9.3km, and Tauranga CBD 15.4km.

This is more than a beautifully built home - it's a lifestyle that brings family, leisure and space together, in a setting you'll love coming home to.

All measurements are approximate.

Rare opportunity on the Million Dollar Mile!

For generations, admirers have long had their eye on this perfectly positioned 20-hectare (more or less) block with a beautifully refreshed villa on Cambridge's Million Dollar Mile, and now after 78 years it is finally available.

Seize the opportunity to farm just three minutes' drive from the shores of Lake Karapiro, with two road frontages on 20 flat paddocks. Seven walk-in/walk-out stables, four boxes, and an 800m track are on offer, with an implement shed plus feed/tack room all set against the picturesque backdrop of Maungatautari and its surrounding countryside.

This impressive property is bordered predominantly by large hedging with internal 5-wire/equine fencing and 2-wire electric fencing, with cattle yards and a loading ramp also on site.

The villa embraces you with its quaint stained glass windows, rimu flooring and a balcony that overlooks horses or stock in the front paddocks. A recently modernised kitchen with quality appliances, butler's sink, window seat and coal/woodburner, is the pièce de resistance in this charming circa 1910 home, once witness to the era of the milk-carrying horse and cart.

With three generous bedrooms and a sunny lounge with Kent log burner, it is both homely and warm. Radiators in several rooms are connected to the woodburner ensuring comfort in winter. The recently refurbished laundry is crisp and modern, closely located to the separate toilet and an older-style bathroom. Nearby the back deck and porch lead out to an ample vegetable garden with raised beds and a plethora of pumpkins, passionfruit, tomatoes and beans.

The original washhouse with dirt floor sits alongside the main home, now unused, but adding a hint of nostalgia each morning as you enjoy a coffee from the window seat in the kitchen.

Designed in keeping with the home's heritage, a recently added single garage and carport contains bike storage, and a mower shed with roller door. A small garden studio attached to its rear could easily be converted to a petite Air Bnb room for overnight visitors needing to be close to sporting events at Lake Karapiro, or tourists using Te Awa cycleway which runs past the farm gate.

Town supply water services the property which is just 2.5km from shops and amenities at Leamington! It's not often blocks like this come up so close to town, with pleasant rural views and two road frontages.

Home to three generations of one family, it has been a tightly-held land offering since the 1940's. Now it's your time. Serious interested parties should make it a priority to inspect today!
