luxury farmhouses with sea view for sale New Zealand

Written by Matthew Chapman, Owner Within New Zealand lies the heavenly Parihoa Farm, a place I am exceptionally proud of. It is the ultimate wellbeing sanctuary, and few properties like this exist worldwide. Comprising 711 acres (287.7ha), and sitting high on cliffs overlooking the Tasman Sea, Parihoa Farm is a multi-dimensional place. It juxtaposes one of the most picturesque rural landscapes in New Zealand and combines it with incredible architecture. We are taking Parihoa Farm to the market as a whole and as three separate parts, each detailed further in their listings: House of Parihoa (25.7 acres), Tabletop Farm (549 acres) and Tirikohua Point Farm (128 acres). Parihoa Farm, as a whole, operates as a private home and events business and contains two working farms. It consists of multiple guest houses, wellbeing structures and entertaining pavilions. The 'House of Parihoa' is the centrepiece, and there is scope to build two other world-class residences of a similar scale. I have had many dreams and visions of what Parihoa Farm can become. My most preferred would be a globally acclaimed transformative wellbeing retreat. However, the choice is yours, to go private or commercial, or a hybrid of both like I have done. A vast seaside location like this, on the West Coast of New Zealand, so close to Auckland, will never be repeated. Price range: NZ$50M plus www.parihoa.com www.parihoafarm.com
