2-280 Medland Road, Great Barrier Island, Hauraki Gulf Islands

Tranquil Bush Haven

The current owners are reluctantly parting with this special property, creating an opportunity for new caretakers to enjoy. On a beautiful 4.34-hectare property off Medland Road, experience the unique beauty and calmness that sets this Great Barrier Island gem apart.

Accessed via a private right of way and nestled conveniently between Claris and Tryphena, this property offers a unique blend of seclusion and accessibility.

A fully consented and furnished cedar cabin awaits, featuring a mezzanine level, a spacious open-plan lounge area, and a fully equipped kitchen with bi-fold windows and doors that open onto a large deck. This private and sunny space is complemented by a large water tank and a Weekend Warrior solar kit, ensuring self-sufficiency to power essential appliances.

Drift off to sleep under skylights, with the Milky Way overhead. Curl up by the fireplace for cosy evenings, adding warmth and comfort to retreats during cooler months.

The property is home to one of the largest kauri groves in the southern part of the island, including several ancient kauri trees. The surrounding old forest has abundant native flora, including rimu, tōtara, nīkau, and many varieties of fern. The southern half of the property is covered with regenerating mānuka. Encounter native wildlife on private trails, with visits from kākā, kererū, tui, pīwakawaka, and forest geckos.

Enjoy views of Station Rock and The Needle from the cabin, along with sea views from the southeastern ridges. A stream and several waterfalls run through the valley below. In the summer, refresh yourself in a private swimming hole, immersing in the beauty of nature that envelops you at every turn. This is a special place.
