where the valley, the vines and the good life converge.
some properties impress. a rare few stop you entirely.
it begin s with the lane. london plane trees, tall and unhurried, lead you to a gated entrance, and beyond it, 5.7916 hectares of flat, generous land in the prestigious waikoukou valley.
this is land that gives back. the soil is outstanding, ready for vines or orchards should you wish, and a private bore keeps the estate self-sufficient.
the home is made for family and for gathering. five bedrooms and four living spaces. origami-inspired ceilings above open-plan dining, a kitchen, and a wood burner for winter. the main suite offers an ensuite and walk-in wardrobe, with a family bathroom, two separate w/cs, a laundry and a double garage with internal access. to the north, a courtyard with automated louvres is ready for long lunches in any season.
for those who live for horses, nothing has been left to chance. four expansive stables with automated troughs, drainage and a wash-down bay. a large barn shed. twelve paddocks linked by a central raceway, fenced in stock and noble legacy rail with equirope outriggers, two of them stallion-fenced. a 22-metre round pen with tredlite surface and post-and-rail. whether you break, breed or simply ride, it is all here.
and if horses are not your story, the land is yours to shape as a farmlet, in horticulture, or as something else entirely. a farm shed, stock yard, pond, pine forest and wetlands complete the picture.
all of this approximately 35km from auckland’s city fringe via state highway 16, with easy motorway access, and moments from riverhead, waimauku and the award-winning vineyards of kumeu.
an estate of this calibre is rarely offered. rarer still, one where the life is already in place.
