Strategic landholding - development potential

A substantial landholding on the southern edge of Te Awamutu township, this 8.86 hectare (more or less) property presents a strategic opportunity for developers, investors and land bankers looking to secure a significant parcel within the town's planned growth area.

Zoned Medium Density Residential and within Waipa District Council's T8 Growth Cell, the property sits within an area earmarked for residential expansion, with development already well underway around it. A modern subdivision and retirement village sit on its north-eastern boundary.

The land itself is well suited to future development, with mostly gentle contour providing a practical platform for longer-term planning and development.

A solid four-bedroom home is positioned on a slightly elevated corner of the property, providing comfortable accommodation for an owner or tenant. Additional improvements include an aircraft hangar or implement shed.

For developers and land bankers, the scale, zoning and position within the T8 Growth Cell make this a holding worthy of serious consideration. It provides the opportunity to secure a large parcel adjacent to established development, with the potential to benefit from the continued expansion of Te Awamutu.

For those looking beyond development, the property also makes an excellent large-scale lifestyle holding. The existing modern home provides a comfortable base close to town, while 8.86 hectares gives you genuine scope for grazing, cropping, horticulture or leasing the land to generate an income whilst you hold.

The luxury of having it all

Auction - From 11am, Thu 22 Oct 2026
(unless sold prior)
3 Deans Ave, Chch

Single-level luxury comes with standout lifestyle capacity at this extensively renovated property, where exceptional accommodation is backed by substantial garaging, shedding and room for recreation in sought-after Swannanoa.

A prized north-west orientation sees sunshine play a leading role across the sweeping approximately 448sqm floor plan, with contemporary interiors and atmospheric strip lighting carrying a distinctly modern mood, while sloping ceilings and high-set windows amplify the sense of height and light.

The open-plan kitchen, dining and living area forms the home’s social centrepiece, with the kitchen’s striking minimalism bringing a polished backdrop for cooking and company, while a second living zone adds valuable flexibility to family life, giving different ages, activities and occasions a place of their own.

Both living zones make an immediate move outdoors, meeting an expansive patio that puts dining and entertaining in the sun, while the verandah supplies a welcome stretch of shade and the spa pool brings an indulgent edge to your evenings.

Four bedrooms and three bathrooms come with the considerable advantage of two master suites. The leading and larger of the two takes a moodier direction with a large walk-in wardrobe and bold en-suite, while its counterpart is clean-lined and neutral, giving guests or extended family an elevated level of privacy and comfort.

A separate study and laundry give work and chores their own quarters, while multi-zoned underfloor heating extends across almost the entire home, joined by an Escea gas fire and heat pump, with extensive solar putting energy efficiency firmly in the home’s favour.

Garaging and shedding reach rare proportions, with four-car provision at the house joined by a separate shed housing a fully fledged man cave and dedicated boat bay, while a further four-bay shed with three bays enclosed takes care of machinery, projects and everything in between.

Privacy and play come with room to roam across the well-fenced grounds, where manicured lawns and established natives frame a scenic pond, while planter boxes and stock yards give growing and grazing a working presence on the property.

With Swannanoa School and Mandeville’s shops only minutes away, the location takes the distance out of country living, completing a lifestyle property where four-hectare freedom and an impressive line-up of facilities come wrapped in the finish of a full renovation.

A little bit country, a whole lot of property

If space, privacy and flexibility are high on the wish list, 42 Farquharson Road delivers a lifestyle property that can adapt to almost any family situation.

Centrally positioned on approximately one acre, the substantial 250sqm (more or less) Golden Home offers five bedrooms and four bathrooms, including two bedrooms with ensuites, a main family bathroom and an additional consented bathroom within the large shed.

The layout of the home is one of its real strengths. Designed with family living and separation in mind, there is a lounge positioned on either side of the central kitchen and dining area, while the master suite and guest bedroom are located at opposite ends of the home. Whether accommodating teenagers, extended family, guests or simply giving everyone their own space, it is an incredibly practical arrangement.

All of the main living areas face north, capturing plenty of natural light and opening directly outside. At the centre of the home is a generous kitchen with modern appliances and an oversized boomerang-shaped bench providing an abundance of preparation and entertaining space. A wood burner sits within the main living area, creating a warm and welcoming hub through the cooler months.

Alongside the main dining space is a separate casual dining nook, perfect for rushed breakfasts, after-school meals or simply somewhere relaxed to sit with a coffee while looking out across the property.

Storage has also been well considered, with plenty of cupboards throughout and a separate walk-through laundry leading directly outside to an impressive vegetable garden. With established garden beds and vege pods, there is plenty of room to keep fresh produce growing throughout the year.

The indoor-outdoor connection is excellent, with the living areas opening to a private entertaining space complete with a substantial brick outdoor fireplace. Surrounded by established planting and overlooking the neighbouring paddocks, it is a peaceful setting with room for outdoor dining, entertaining and a spa pool.

The main master suite is particularly impressive, featuring a generous ensuite with double vanities and a large double tiled walk-in shower. The remaining bedrooms are well proportioned, with large windows allowing plenty of sun and natural light, all connected by the central hallway.

Then there is the shed.

Located conveniently close to the home is an approximately 12m x 9m, 108sqm KiwiSpan-style shed divided into three separate areas. The section closest to the home contains two additional rooms with opening joinery to the outside, polished concrete floors and a modern consented bathroom with a tiled shower. It creates an excellent option for anyone working from home, running a business, wanting a teenage retreat or simply needing additional flexible space.

The centre bay takes advantage of the approximately 4.8m stud height with a mezzanine level providing even more storage or usable space, while the height also lends itself well to vehicle enthusiasts wanting room for a car hoist.

Outside, the property is currently divided into three well-fenced paddocks and features an attractive mix of established trees and productive fruit planting, including plum, Orange, Mandarin, Lemon, Lime, Apples, Peaches, Pears, Feijoa, Passion Fruit and Macadamia nuts.

Despite the peaceful rural setting, the location remains extremely convenient. The Ramarama motorway interchange is approximately 14 minutes away, while both Ararimu School and Hunua School are around 4km from the property, and Paparimu School is approximately 6.5km away.

Ararimu and the surrounding rural community are well known for their friendly atmosphere, local events and strong community spirit, making this an excellent place to put down roots while remaining within easy reach of Drury and the wider Auckland network.

With a substantial family home, genuine separation, outstanding shedding and a manageable lifestyle block, 42 Farquharson Road is a property that will suit a wide range of buyers and family situations.

3 Deans Avenue, Christchurch

Park-like privacy and considerable potential make a powerful pairing at this cinematic 12.4-hectare property in Fernside, where an established country estate comes with the valuable advantage of subdivision consent.

Already approved for subdivision into three evenly sized parcels, the property puts a defined future pathway alongside the exceptional lifestyle it delivers today.

A tree-lined driveway makes an impressive approach through mature gardens and spectacular grounds, setting the residence within a landscape of breathtaking natural beauty.

Spacious and modernised while retaining its classic character, the home carries Otago schist from exterior feature work to a striking fireplace in the formal lounge, while the expansive open-plan kitchen, dining and living is immersed in natural light and garden outlooks, with direct outdoor flow extending the living into its landscaped surroundings.

Ideally oriented to the north-west, outdoor entertaining captures hours of afternoon sunshine, with a louvre putting shade on standby when the temperature climbs.

From three bedrooms and an office to a four-bedroom configuration, the accommodation can readily shift to suit, with the master featuring an en-suite and walk-in wardrobe.

Offering far more than secure parking, the detached double garage incorporates a sleepout or studio that can turn its hand to guests, hobbies or home-based work beyond the home.

The infrastructure is as extensive as the acreage, with an American-style barn, three-bay garage complex, high-clearance lock-up barn, large utility shed and yards covering an exceptional range of requirements, from parking and projects to rural pursuits.

Position proves another major drawcard, securing a prized Fernside setting with the preschool alongside, the local school just minutes away, and nearby Rangiora putting the wider line-up of shopping, dining and amenities close to home.

Multiple living zones turn the home’s considerable 575sqm dimensions into an everyday advantage, giving family life more room to move and entertaining a far bigger backdrop.

That social focus carries outdoors, where a deck beneath twin electric louvre roofs puts dining and drinks comfortably under cover, while vast lawns, established planting, a water feature and a stream give the grounds genuine country character.

Another of the latest additions lifts leisure to another level, with a self-cleaning indoor pool joined by a games room, bathroom, kitchenette and log fire, creating a fully equipped year-round destination for recreation and entertaining.

Six bedrooms, five bathrooms and a study or seventh bedroom give the main residence extraordinary family capacity, with the sheer scale to absorb a full household, extended family or frequent guests without sacrificing privacy or space. The west wing extends that advantage through The Meadows, a fully self-contained two-bedroom residence with its own kitchen, bathroom, living room and double garage, giving occupants complete independence while retaining proven short-term accommodation potential.

An extensive 32-panel solar system puts power production firmly on-site, while three heat pumps, underfloor heating, a wood fire and gas fire cover comfort from every angle.

Beyond the house, the property is equipped to work every inch of its acreage, with deer-fenced paddocks, a two-bay barn, stock shelters, a pump shed and four dog kennels featuring runs and an exercise area give the lifestyle side considerable substance, while dedicated irrigation keeps both paddocks and lawns efficiently managed.

Country scale comes with city-side convenience, with Marshland five minutes away, the Pegasus Bay coastline around 10 minutes by car and the central city little more than 20 minutes from home, completing an estate where land, luxury and lifestyle living know no limits.
