“The middle of Nowhere but the Centre of everything”
Positioned within the prestigious Karapiro Heights in the heart of New Zealand’s North Island, this exceptional manor presents a rare opportunity to secure a private retreat that seamlessly combines lifestyle, income, and long-term investment potential. Elevated on approximately 9,944 sq m (2.45 acres) of beautifully manicured grounds, the estate captures breathtaking panoramic views across Lake Karapiro, rolling farmland, native bush, and expansive rural landscapes, delivering a sense of serenity and privacy that is increasingly sought after by discerning buyers both within New Zealand and internationally.
For those considering a move to New Zealand, or seeking a secure second residence in a modern, English-speaking, and environmentally conscious country, this remarkable property offers both peace of mind and exceptional lifestyle opportunity. New Zealand continues to attract global investors and families looking for stability, natural beauty, and a high quality of living, making this estate a compelling choice for relocation, seasonal living, or long-term investment.
Just 90 minutes from Auckland International Airport via the Waikato Expressway, the property offers the perfect balance of privacy and accessibility. Cambridge township lies only 15 minutes away, providing boutique shopping, cafés, sporting facilities, and excellent schooling, while the surrounding region delivers world-class tourism and lifestyle destinations including Hobbiton, Rotorua, Sanctuary Mountain Maungatautari, and the coastal lifestyle of Tauranga.
At the centre of the estate sits an impressive residence of approximately 580 sq m, thoughtfully designed for both grand entertaining and relaxed family living. Six luxurious bedroom suites provide exceptional comfort and privacy, including two suites with elegant designer bathrooms. Each additional suite offers generous proportions, private lounging areas, balconies, and beautifully appointed en-suites, creating an environment equally suited to hosting guests, accommodating extended family, or operating a boutique accommodation offering.
Enhancing both lifestyle and income potential, the property includes a separate red barn–style accommodation for guests, staff, or on-site management. The existing management structure allows the property to operate efficiently as a luxury accommodation offering, while providing owners the flexibility to enjoy the estate privately whenever desired.
Importantly, the property has been independently reviewed and recognised as a suitable investment property, operating as an established accommodation business with infrastructure already in place. The current operation generates income sufficient to contribute toward annual operational expenses, offering owners a balance of lifestyle enjoyment and financial sustainability.
The Lodge is offered as a home with an income, or as a five-star accommodation business, with GST registration opportunities and potential tax advantages for qualifying purchasers.
