Coast meets country living - four titles
Opportunities on this scale, in a location as special as Helena Bay, are becoming exceptionally rare. This remarkable 158.789-hectare (more or less) estate has been thoughtfully divided into four separate titles, offering the flexibility to purchase the entire holding or secure an individual block that suits your vision.
The current owners bring decades of experience in property and land development, with significant investment made to improve both the farm and its natural environment. The result is a property where much of the hard work has already been done, allowing new owners to simply enjoy what has been created or build upon an already outstanding foundation.
At the heart of the property sits Lot 1, home to the original Webb family farmhouse. Beautifully reimagined and renovated to an exceptional standard, the residence seamlessly combines character and comfort. Offering three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a dedicated laundry and mudroom, the home has been thoughtfully designed for modern country living. Flowing seamlessly from the living spaces is a generous entertaining deck overlooking the meadow, providing the perfect setting to relax, host family and friends, and enjoy the peaceful rural surroundings.
Adding further versatility to the property is a separate loft-style studio, ideal as a home office, guest accommodation, creative retreat or additional bedroom. A detached double garage features a renovated gym space, while the substantial double tractor shed and three additional implement sheds provide excellent storage for machinery, boats, vehicles and equipment. What truly sets this property apart is the landscape itself.
A private waterfall flows through the farm, creating a peaceful natural sanctuary, while natural swimming holes border the meadow directly in front of the home. Extensive native planting and environmental enhancement projects have transformed the waterways and wetlands into thriving ecosystems filled with birdlife and natural beauty. The result is a property that feels both established and evolving, where nature and lifestyle work hand in hand.
Beyond the homestead, the remaining three titles each offer their own unique character. From elevated sites showcasing breathtaking panoramic ocean views to peaceful rural settings surrounded by rolling countryside and extensive farm walks, every block presents an opportunity to create something extraordinary. Whether you're an Auckland family looking to swap traffic for space, a keen fisherman or diver wanting some of Northland's best coastal adventures on your doorstep, or a retired farmer seeking room for the next generation to build nearby while maintaining privacy and independence, this property offers a lifestyle rarely available in today's market.
Each title provides the freedom to create your own vision, whether that's building a dream home, establishing a family compound, or securing a slice of Helena Bay for the future. Water and power are to be installed by the new owners, providing flexibility to design and develop each site exactly as desired.
Further enhancing the appeal, the property offers multiple income-generating opportunities. It could be returned to grazing, or its existing earning potential through the New Zealand Emissions Trading Scheme could be expanded by planting and registering additional native or exotic forestry. The property already includes approximately 54.24 hectares of registered regenerating native bush, with an estimated further 73 hectares potentially suitable for ETS registration, subject to approvals and scheme requirements. While the current owners have prioritised lifestyle use, the combination of productive soils, favourable climate and reliable water supply also presents genuine opportunities for horticultural, forestry or agricultural development.
Come and experience the beautifully restored Webb family homestead, walk the land, explore the waterfall and swimming holes, and discover the incredible possibilities that await. Buy one. Buy several. Or secure the entire 158.789 hectares. The choice is yours.
