Opportunities of this calibre along Takapuna’s coveted Golden Mile are exceptionally rare, tightly held for generations, fiercely sought after, and increasingly difficult to secure. Positioned on approximately 1,214sq m of premium freehold waterfront land, this remarkable coastal estate offers scale, pedigree, and extraordinary future potential in one of Auckland’s most prestigious addresses. The property sits proudly on a circa 150,000 year old basalt rock foundation providing an extraordinary stable and enduring platform and not subject to coastal inundation and erosion concerns of other waterfront locations.

This is far more than a home; it is a legacy in one of Auckland’s most tightly held coastal enclaves. A rare combination of position, scale, history, and future vision, offering the next custodian the opportunity to create something truly landmark on Takapuna’s Golden Mile.

Vineyard Matakana (New Zealand)

Some homes ask nothing of you. The pace slows the moment you arrive, the view takes over, and the world quietly falls away. 20 Green Road is one of those rare places. Positioned on 1,809 sq m (more or less) of elevated land above the Glen Eden waterway, this beautifully reimagined residence enjoys sweeping water views across one of Matakana's most captivating coastal settings. The outlook is ever changing, shaped by shifting tides, changing light, and the rhythm of the seasons. Originally constructed in the 2010s and comprehensively transformed in 2022, the home has evolved into a refined contemporary retreat of approximately 220 sq m. The renovation was guided by Peter Perry of Inside Out Design, with interiors curated by Nanda Rammers of Board and Batten and Twin Rivers, creating a residence that feels both sophisticated and deeply connected to its surroundings. A carefully considered specification elevates every space. Italian tiles and tapware, underfloor heating in the ensuite, imported recycled timber, designer lighting from Lumenworks, and quality finishes throughout create an atmosphere of understated luxury and enduring comfort. Three generous bedrooms, two beautifully appointed bathrooms, and expansive open plan living spaces flow effortlessly to extensive outdoor entertaining areas where the water becomes part of daily life. From quiet mornings watching the sun rise across the harbour to long afternoons shared with family and friends, every space has been designed to embrace the remarkable setting. For those drawn to life on the water, kayaking, paddleboarding, and coastal exploration are moments away. Matakana Village, renowned for its Saturday Farmers' Market, boutique wineries, artisan producers, cinemas, and acclaimed dining destinations, is less than five minutes from your door. Warkworth is nearby, while Auckland remains an easy journey for those seeking the perfect balance between city convenience and coastal escape. The upper portion of the property presents an additional layer of opportunity.
