Bush side lifestyle retreat

Set on an expansive 3.30 hectares (more or less) with a peaceful native bush backdrop, this 263sqm (more or less) cedar-clad home is rich in character, warmth, and timeless appeal.

From the moment you step inside, the home’s thoughtful design is evident. Warm timber accents and soaring vaulted ceilings create an inviting sense of space, while multiple living areas offer flexibility for families to relax, gather, or retreat in comfort.

Designed to embrace its natural surroundings, the home enjoys exceptional indoor-outdoor flow, with numerous doors opening to the outdoors, perfect for easy summer living and entertaining. When the seasons turn cooler, comfort is assured with a gas fireplace, and a heat pump in the master bedroom, creating a cosy haven year-round.

The layout includes four generous bedrooms plus a separate consulting or office space, ideal as a home workspace or studio.

Outdoors, the property continues to impress. A substantial barn, well-sized paddocks, and a standalone craft room or studio provide excellent versatility for lifestyle living. The home is serviced by a private bore with blue light filtration, offering peace of mind and self-sufficiency.

Perfectly positioned between the home and the surrounding native bush, making it private and peaceful. Established fruit trees enhance the lifestyle appeal, with ample space to expand gardens or orchards further.

Whether it’s a tranquil walk through your own private bush on a warm afternoon or enjoying the atmosphere of native New Zealand bush in the rain, this property offers a rare sense of peace and connection to nature.

Conveniently located just five minutes from Tuakau township, and only ten minutes from the motorway at the fast-growing Pokeno township with its new supermarket, this is lifestyle living without compromise.

Serenity escape, privacy perfected

Set across 5.6510ha (more or less) of thoughtfully managed land, this superbly crafted residence was originally designed to operate as an exclusive lodge, yet it transitions seamlessly into a refined private estate.

The home has a presence that is both elegant and understated, offering substantial accommodation, excellent separation of spaces and a layout that supports a wide range of future uses. Some purchasers will be drawn to the property as a prestigious holiday home with a view to eventual permanent occupation, while others will immediately recognise the benefits of establishing their family life here from day one, creating memories that will endure for generations.

The residence itself is generous, well configured and immaculately cared for, with a level of construction and finish that ensures it will comfortably meet the needs of its owners for decades to come. Five suites, including a separate primary suite, are complemented by six bathrooms and a powder room, allowing family and guests to enjoy privacy without compromise. Formal and informal living areas include a gracious lounge, formal dining room and a large conservatory that draws in light and outlook throughout the day. High-quality fixtures, fittings and tiling reinforce the sense of quiet luxury that runs consistently through the home.

Beyond the residence, the grounds are a defining feature. Expansive lawns flow down toward the water’s edge, bordered by ponds and a natural stream that weaves through the property. A conservation-minded approach by the current owners has transformed the land into a true sanctuary, attracting abundant birdlife, including rare duck species. Portions of the land are paddocked, providing scope for stock or horses, while the house itself enjoys its own defined and private setting.

Practicality has not been overlooked. Double internal-access garaging is supplemented by further shedding suitable for vehicles, workshop and equipment storage, offering flexibility for those with lifestyle, recreational or business interests.

For purchasers seeking income potential, the four guest suites offer obvious scope for boutique accommodation, should one wish to revive or reimagine the property’s original lodge intent.

This is a rare offering: a sophisticated coastal estate that combines scale, serenity and versatility in an increasingly sought-after location.

Whether held as a legacy family property, a refined permanent residence or a future-focused lifestyle investment, it represents an opportunity that is seldom repeated in Opoutere.

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.

Welcome home to country and character

Upon arrival, there is an immediate sense that you have discovered something truly special, and it only deepens as you meander through the peaceful semi rural 1.145 hectare setting, catching your first glimpse of the welcoming front porch, and rocking chair ready sprawling verandahs.

Dating back to the 1870s, this immaculately maintained Kauri weatherboard home has been sympathetically modernised, with an understated elegance that makes everyday living both comfortable and a pleasure. Hallmarks of a bygone era abound with rich Kauri flooring, wide hallways, soaring ceilings, French doors, ornate leadlight windows and classical lighting. These timeless features are beautifully complemented by a stylish, generously proportioned kitchen with engineered stone benchtops and Smeg appliances, a true cook’s delight.

All three bedrooms are exceptionally spacious, including the fairy-tale master suite with ensuite and deep clawfoot bath. Each room has, at various times, been used as formal or private living spaces and home offices, offering remarkable flexibility. Almost every room either opens to the outdoors or enjoys tranquil garden views, while comprehensive insulation and heat pumps ensure year-round comfort.

Outside, you are immersed in a peaceful and invigorating wonderland. Fruit trees, including grapefruit, plum, peach, feijoa, lemon and apple, along with grapevines and strawberry beds, produce abundant, healthy harvests. Expansive shaded lawns, mature trees, a soothing water fountain, grazing land, and even a pocket of native bush alive with birdsong create a setting that is both calming and inspiring. A natural flowing stream, deep enough in places to dip into, completes this exceptional landscape.

Added bonuses include a studio immersed amongst the gardens perfect for guests, a home office or yoga retreat and a versatile 120sqm modern four bay garage/workshop/hobby space, future proofed for a mezzanine floor or vehicle storage hoist.

Kumeu remains one of the last true city fringe sanctuaries, offering the perfect balance of country living with easy access to Auckland, the Northwest’s amenities, west coast beaches, renowned wineries, cafés and restaurants.

Life is to live, love and leave a legacy, this rare opportunity needs a new caretaker, and it so easily could be you.

An elevated rural retreat with panoramic views

Privately positioned on an elevated site with expansive rural views and just a 6-minute drive to Pukekohe town centre, this exceptional 2021-built home presents a refined and quietly confident expression of modern country living where architecture, landscape, and materials come together with intent.

Set on just over an acre of established, landscaped grounds, post-and-rail fencing frames the property and sets the tone for relaxed country living. A considered blend of light brickwork and Japanese Yakisugi-style charred timber detailing gives the home a strong yet understated presence, complemented by a sweeping concrete driveway that enhances the sense of arrival.

Spanning approximately 298sqm (more or less), the single-level layout feels calm and generous. High-stud ceilings (2.7m throughout), a raked ceiling, and skylights draw natural light deep into the home, enhancing the sense of space and proportion. A restrained colour palette and layered textures create warmth and cohesion throughout.

At the heart of the home, the kitchen is both functional and striking, defined by clean lines, matte black cabinetry, an integrated wine fridge, a solid copper splashback, and a well-appointed scullery that allows the main kitchen to remain clean and composed. Open-plan living flows effortlessly from here, anchored by a feature gas fire and designed with exceptional indoor-outdoor connection in mind.
Large sliders open to a sequence of sheltered outdoor living spaces, thoughtfully arranged to create distinct zones for dining, lounging, and gathering. A pizza oven, barbecue area, landscaped firepit setting, and elevated seating areas extend the home seamlessly into its surroundings, offering flexibility for both intimate evenings and larger occasions, all framed by expansive rural views.
The bedrooms are well separated, with the master suite offering a peaceful retreat. The main bathroom is beautifully finished and designed as a space to unwind, complete with underfloor heating and a freestanding bath.
A large internal-access double garage supports easy day-to-day living, while quality fixtures and thoughtful upgrades throughout reflect the standard of the build.

Set separately, a substantial high-stud iron shed adds outstanding versatility. Part of it is currently utilised as an Airbnb, the consented accommodation with bathroom provides an attractive income stream while remaining ideal for guests, extended family, work-from-home or creative pursuits.

Sheltered from prevailing winds and enjoying views to the north, east, and south, this is a home that feels private and grounded yet effortlessly connected.

With the owners relocating, an opportunity presents to secure an outstanding property where design, detailing, and lifestyle have been carefully balanced and beautifully executed.

This is a home that truly stands apart - a property that needs to be seen to be fully appreciated.

Deadline Sale (unless sold prior).

View By Appointment.

A rare lifestyle opportunity, 22 and 22A Hereford Drive offer two fully self-contained dwellings, ideal for multi-generational living, extended family, or guests. Set on 1 hectare, the homes combine comfort, character, and thoughtful design with an easy, relaxed flow.
The main home welcomes you through a generous entrance into a series of warm, welcoming living spaces. With ceiling panelling, wool loop carpet, white shutters, and a schist fireplace, the interiors feel timeless yet comfortable. One living area is perfect for cosy evenings by the fire, while the second is bright and open, ideal for morning coffee, reading, or casual gatherings.
At the heart of the home, the kitchen is both practical and inviting. Granite benchtops, quality appliances, and generous storage are complemented by a window seat and woodburner, creating a space where the family naturally comes together.
The master bedroom on the ground floor is a private retreat, opening onto its own patio and featuring a beautifully appointed ensuite with double vanity, freestanding bathtub, and walk-in shower — a space designed for comfort, style, and daily indulgence. A walk-in robe completes the suite, while a separate powder room services this level. Upstairs, three spacious bedrooms offer flexibility, including one with an office and reading nook. A bathroom with a walk-in shower and stained-glass window completes the upper level.
Practicality is seamlessly integrated with a carpeted internal access double garage, leading to a generous laundry with ample storage, along with a temperature-controlled wine cellar.
Outside, the lifestyle continues. Established gardens surround the homes, with a pool, a large backyard perfect for children and pets, and a separate garage housing a gym. Firewood storage and space for a ride-on mower add convenience, while pathways, patios, and lawns encourage outdoor living and entertaining.
The cottage is equally charming, with raked ceilings and polished exposed aggregate floors giving a sense of space and style. The bedroom includes a built-in robe, and an additional room provides flexibility for guests or a home office. The bathroom is fully tiled for a modern, clean finish. This separate dwelling provides comfort and independence while maintaining the same warm, inviting character as the main home.
Both 22 and 22A are fully independent, each with separate power, septic, and gas, offering flexibility rarely found in lifestyle properties.
The location rounds out the offering, with easy access to expressways north and south, a nearby golf course, and a 1/27 share in a tennis court on the title — all within a sought-after Horsham Downs setting.

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!

It now offers four bedrooms, including a master with ensuite, along with a family bathroom located on the first floor and accessed via a wide, sweeping feature staircase.

The ground floor features a generous entrance foyer, a formal living room with open fire, a rimu-lined lounge with heat pump, and a separate dining room, also with an open fire. The kitchen is well-appointed with a large central workstation, double ovens with gas hob, double dish drawers, double fridges, and excellent storage.
