Hidden among the rolling hills of Waiheke Island, Poderi Crisci feels like a small corner of Tuscany quietly settled in the South Pacific. Only a short journey from Auckland’s international airport, yet worlds away in atmosphere, the estate unfolds across sunlit vines, olive groves and fertile gardens where land, wine and hospitality shape daily life. Arriving here feels like stepping into another rhythm. The road winds through gentle countryside before revealing rows of vines stretching across warm slopes, olive trees catching the afternoon light and the soft movement of the island breeze across the valley. It is a landscape that invites people to slow down — to taste, gather and stay a little longer. At the heart of the estate sits a celebrated vineyard and restaurant, already established as one of Waiheke’s most loved destinations. Guests gather for long lunches among the vines, weddings unfold against sweeping rural backdrops, and the land produces wine, olive oil and seasonal produce that reflect the character of the site. The Mediterranean philosophy of living close to the land feels natural here — growing, harvesting, cooking and sharing all part of the same story. Complementing the hospitality operation is a welcoming residential component. At the centre stands a Tuscan country-style villa with four bedrooms and two bathrooms, reflecting the relaxed warmth and rustic elegance of the setting. Outdoors, a 6 × 12 metre swimming pool and spa overlook the surrounding landscape — a private retreat to unwind after vineyard days or gather with friends beneath the Waiheke sun. More recently, a beautifully designed guest suite has been created above La Locanda Bistro. This fully self-contained residence includes a generous office, double bedroom, walk-in wardrobe and ensuite. It connects to the main villa through the winery itself, where an elevated internal bridge crosses above the winemaking area — a striking architectural moment suspended above vats and barrels, reminding visitors how closely life and craft are intertwined. Beyond the existing buildings, further possibilities unfold across the land. At the upper reaches of the property lies a designated building platform with elevated views stretching across the sea toward Awaawaroa Bay. Plans have been prepared for additional visitor facilities carefully positioned within the landscape, offering potential to expand the hospitality experience. The estate also features an existing helipad, allowing direct access to Auckland in approximately ten minutes — a rare convenience that enhances both lifestyle and business potential. Creativity and gathering have always been part of Poderi Crisci’s story. Among the vines sits a remarkable amphitheatre designed for performances, celebrations and shared moments beneath the open sky — reflecting the founder’s vision of bringing a slice of Italian countryside culture to Waiheke Island. Today the estate operates as a successful vineyard and hospitality destination, yet its future could take many forms — an elegant agriturismo, a boutique vineyard retreat, an expanded wedding venue, or a private estate where vines frame everyday life. Poderi Crisci is more than a vineyard. It is a way of life — where wine is crafted, food is grown and people gather in a setting that feels timeless. A slice of Tuscany, shaped on Waiheke Island.

Set discreetly back from one of Remuera’s most distinguished streets, this remarkable residence presents a seamless blend of traditional character and modern expression. The brilliance of its architectural intent, the quality of its material and the precision of its detailing extend far beyond first impression. Originally conceived by Arts & Crafts architect Gerald Jones and later entirely reimagined as the personal residence of acclaimed architect Noel Lane, the property represents a considered reinvention rather than a renovation– traditional form retained and spatial experience transformed. Across three interconnected levels, light and volume become architectural elements in themselves. A central vertical opening links the upper floors to the lower atrium, creating a constant sense of scale and flow, while two staircases positioned at opposing ends of the home allow movement to feel effortless. The main level is thoughtfully designed for both daily living and gatherings. A north-facing walnut and travertine kitchen fitted with Gaggenau and Miele appliances forms the centre of the home, complemented by a light-filled dining area. Open casual living areas face both the front and rear, while a wood-panelled formal lounge provides a more intimate retreat. On the ground level, a dramatic atrium anchors the home’s social life. Opening to an enclosed side courtyard and extending outward to a substantial rear sculptural courtyard, the space is equally suited to intimate celebrations or larger-scale occasions. The courtyard connects onwards to a generous lawn, while a concealed garage door allows the space to expand– a thoughtful design that enhances both flexibility and flow. The upper level is dedicated to accommodation, featuring four bedrooms including a primary suite with an adjoining nursery or study. These rooms flow naturally to the rooftop terrace, where elevated views to Rangitoto and Orakei Basin provide a serene backdrop for evening drinks or quiet retreat. The recently renewed surrounding grounds by Tony Murrell form a natural extension of the architecture and are crafted with the same uncompromising philosophy as the home itself. From the moment you enter the garden, walking across hammered basalt and warm-toned travertine, the integrity of the material selection is immediately apparent– not confined to just focal spaces, but carried throughout. The landscaping is executed with permanence in mind and designed to last a lifetime– a level of thoroughness rarely achieved. Earth, Sea and Sky elements are subtly expressed across the expansive site through carefully curated aggregates and sculptural planting of exceptional calibre. The Japanese-style zen garden frames the pool, while pathways weave through bamboo, bonsai, camellias and evergreen azaleas, all of which remain engaging throughout the seasons. Both intimate and expansive, the grounds allow for contemplation and entertaining, with dynamic lighting carrying the atmosphere into the evening. Positioned within the Double Grammar Zone, directly across from Victoria Avenue shops and moments from Remuera Village, the property offers both prestige and practicality. A timeless architectural masterpiece that is reimagined with purpose and executed without compromise. Important: This property may be marketed as suitable for overseas purchasers.

Drawing inspiration from Ludwig Mies van der Rohe’s iconic Barcelona Pavilion, this residence celebrates the essence of modernist architecture - open space, purity of form, and an enduring dialogue between structure and landscape. A creation by David Ponting and Matthew Fitzgerald, the home is a triumph of precision and material mastery, its refinement placing it in a league of its own. The use of Himalayan schist is both deliberate and poetic, its texture and tone uniting the architecture from the gateway through to the heart of the home. A glass-walled gallery encases a striking central pool, framed by schist walls that anchor the residence to its natural setting, while overhead, a floating sail roof amplifies its sculptural elegance. A palette of Brazilian stone, wood-grained concrete, and American white ash, evokes understated luxury, illuminated by shifting light from broad glazing and skylights that animate the interiors throughout the day. Spanning 809 sq m more or less (as stated in supplied council consent documents), the home offers four en-suited bedrooms including a master suite of rare calibre, complete with dual vanities and his-and-hers amenities. Living zones transition seamlessly outdoors to 283 sq m more or less (as stated in supplied council consent documents) of terraces designed for private entertaining, while intelligent CBUS automation, underfloor heating across 11 zones, and a media room with concealed projector deliver technological sophistication and comfort. Set across four hectares of manicured land, this residence is a landmark in contemporary architecture. An extraordinary expression of craftsmanship and vision for those who appreciate the finest in design and scale.
