Affordable lifestyle, vendor instructs auction

Set high on one of Fairhall's most coveted roads, 42 Booker Road commands a panoramic outlook across Marlborough in every direction. The current owners took on this site as untouched land and, over more than two decades, built the residence and shaped the grounds into what they are today.

Every hedge line, garden bed and established tree reflects that long, unhurried care. Properties of this calibre, held by one family since their creation, rarely come to market.

The 276sqm (more or less) home spans two levels. Upstairs, the master suite enjoys its own ensuite and a private balcony overlooking the gardens and the valley beyond, with a studio at the head of the stairs ideal as an artist's space or second lounge. On the ground floor are three double bedrooms and a family bathroom, two of the bedrooms opening onto the patio. Living centres on an open-plan room warmed by a log fire, where French doors lead to a covered north-facing terrace. A formal dining room or lounge sits off the
kitchen, and a study adjoins the main living area.

Outside, a broad manicured lawn is framed by mature plantings, with a sheltered courtyard and outdoor fireplace for evenings outdoors. A productive orchard and an established vegetable garden complete the grounds.

The 9.54ha (more or less) of rolling hill country suits grazing, with four SVIS shares included. Infrastructure includes an internal-access double garage, an 9m x 8m workshop and a two-bay implement shed for machinery, a boat or a caravan.

Your Country Escape, Close to the Coast

Imagine room to breathe, coastal sunsets and space to shape your own country lifestyle. This appealing nearly 1.5 hectare section (awaiting title issue) combines easy-contoured land with distant sea views and an outlook towards the newly built Te Tai Tokerau Dam - an inviting setting to explore the possibilities for your future home.
With Glinks Gully and the coast close by, fishing trips and leisurely days by the sea could become part of your everyday lifestyle. Positioned on a tarsealed road, the section offers a completed new entrance, power to the plinth and new five-wire post fencing around the boundary. A geotechnical report is available to help sort your plans.
Whether you're dreaming of a new home or a fresh start in the country, this is an opportunity worth exploring. Sections offering this combination of space, outlook and coastal proximity don't come along often. Come and picture the possibilities - call me today to arrange your viewing.

Listing ID: 43158669

Four titles endless possibilities

Comprising approximately 6.7 hectares across four separate titles, 88 Old Waipu Road occupies an enviable position on the doorstep of Mangawhai Village. Rolling pasture, elevated building platforms, mature shelter, and sweeping estuary and rural vistas create an exceptional balance of lifestyle, investment and future potential.
For retiring farmers, this is the perfect opportunity to scale back without stepping away entirely. Run livestock, maintain a productive rural lifestyle, and enjoy the satisfaction of owning a historic piece of Northland farming heritage, all while being just minutes from cafés, shops, golf courses and coastal amenities.
For developers and land bankers, the property's strategic location is increasingly difficult to ignore. Positioned adjacent to one of New Zealand's most dynamic growth districts, the land offers scale, flexibility and multiple titles that provide several pathways for future consideration, subject to appropriate approvals.
For international and long-term investors, opportunities of this nature are becoming increasingly scarce. Mangawhai continues to attract significant population growth, infrastructure investment and lifestyle-driven migration, while maintaining the natural beauty and coastal character that have made it one of New Zealand's most sought-after destinations. Acquiring a substantial landholding on the edge of the township offers the potential to benefit from both current enjoyment and future growth.
Whether your vision is to preserve a remarkable piece of local history, establish an exceptional lifestyle estate, continue its agricultural legacy, or secure a strategic landholding for future generations, 88 Old Waipu Road represents an opportunity that is increasingly rare to find and exceptionally difficult to replicate.
Historic. Productive. Strategic. A legacy property ready for its next chapter.

Country Character, Modern Comfort

Step out the door, and you are in the bush. This 6.94ha (more or less) property sits at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, with approximately 5.7ha of established native bush and 1.10ha with a home and land. A constantly flowing stream winds between the paddock and the bush, the birdsong never stops, and a deep swimming hole is just a short walk away. Pack a picnic and head for the waterfalls. This is the kind of place where weekends take care of themselves.

At the centre of it all is a 190sqm (more or less) weatherboard character home with 270-degree views. It has been recently renovated and freshly painted inside and out. Large windows fill the house with natural light, and warm timber floors run throughout the main living spaces. The kitchen, upgraded just two years ago, is the heart of the home. A large island topped with Red Tempest, a quartzite from Brazil, anchors the space, with the same stone carried through to the pantry and part of the splashback. Absolute Black granite benchtops, white shaker-style cabinetry, a gas cooktop and statement pendant lighting complete the picture. It all flows easily into the dining and living areas, where a heat pump and wood burner keep things comfortable through every season.
Step through the French doors onto the covered deck, and you have an outdoor room that works all year. Built-in lighting means long summer evenings carry on well after the sun goes down. A second open deck catches the sun, giving you two very different spaces to relax or entertain.

There are four bedrooms, all connected to a Mitsubishi ERV system. The master opens straight onto its own deck, looking directly into the native bush. It also has a walk-in robe and ensuite. A second bedroom shares the deck access, and one bedroom currently works well as a study. The family bathroom is full of character, with rimu panelling, timber floors and a classic clawfoot bath.
A wide sealed driveway leads to the double garage, with plenty of room for parking and turning. The garage includes a rumpus room with its own bathroom, a handy space for guests, teenagers or a home office. Wide lawns give kids and pets plenty of room to run. There is a mini orchard, and two large raised vegetable gardens are ready for planting. The paddock below the home is currently grazed by sheep.

The location works too. You are zoned for Bombay School, just 4.5km from the motorway and 12km from Pukekohe, with Auckland Airport 36km away and the Auckland CBD 47km away.
