Cytringan House is an old name associated with Kettering in Northamptonshire, England, giving this Onehunga home an intriguing connection to the heritage and traditions of Britain’s past. Built around 1910, the house has stood for more than a century, with its story continuing through each generation that has cared for it. Originally a single storey home, it was thoughtfully renovated and extended by a previous owner to create a substantial two storey residence. The upstairs component incorporates the original villa, allowing the home’s history to sit beautifully alongside its later additions, past and present, perfectly in step. Details matter here. From the French tessellated entrance tiles, featuring significant encaustic style centrepieces, to the hand crafted leadlight entrance door, every element speaks to provenance, individuality and craftsmanship. The property also features laminated glazed windows designed to be difficult to break while providing sound reduction and thermal performance. It is an uncommon blend of comfort, security and tranquillity. This home is refined comfort with distinctive features, including a magnificent Portuguese claw foot bath upstairs and elegant, heritage appropriate bathrooms that contribute to the home’s sense of occasion. There is also a decommissioned service lift or dumbwaiter. There are four large bedrooms and multiple living spaces, the layout supports both everyday family life and entertaining. Outside, beautifully kept gardens have their own practical foundations, including a raised garden bed for growing and an outdoor garden shed for convenient storage, an ideal balance of charm and functionality. Behind electric gates parking is generous and effortless, with a double internal access garage and workshop accommodating up to three cars, with potential for a fourth. Offering privacy and security the driveway can comfortably accommodate multiple vehicles, ideal for visiting family or effortless hosting. Now, Cytringan House is ready for its next chapter. The current owners have developed further renovation plans designed to sensitively modernise the property, balancing heritage integrity with contemporary family living. Those plans are available for interested purchasers to view. Cytringan House offers something increasingly rare, the opportunity to become part of a home’s history and to help write the next chapter.

Some properties offer a place to live. Others invite you to imagine an entirely different life. Oak Hill is one of those rare places, a beautiful Matakana vineyard and rural lifestyle property where rows of vines follow the contours of the land, the countryside opens towards the Hauraki Gulf, and Little Barrier Island and Great Barrier Island rest on the horizon. Located in the Rodney district of Auckland, this remarkable landholding sits between Matakana Village and Omaha Beach, each approximately 5km away. Auckland CBD is around one hour by car or approximately 15 minutes by helicopter, with an on-site helicopter landing pad making the transition from city to country feel almost effortless. Currently operating as a well-managed boutique vineyard under a lease agreement, Oak Hill Vineyard offers the freedom to shape its next chapter. Continue the established vineyard operation, secure a strategic Matakana landholding for the future, or create a private country retreat that belongs uniquely to this landscape. Zoned Mixed-use Rural, the property has water and power connections. An historic, non-heritage cottage, although currently uninhabitable, provides a tangible connection to the land’s past and reflects its history of residential use. The elevated building site is the emotional heart of the property. Sweeping rural views extend across the vines and Matakana countryside towards the islands of the Hauraki Gulf. It is an extraordinary setting for a beautiful home or private vineyard estate, a place where mornings begin with light moving across the vines and evenings end with family and friends beneath an expansive coastal sky. Subject to Auckland Council approval, the property may also offer potential for luxury accommodation, boutique vineyard lodging, a wellness retreat or another premium Matakana tourism and hospitality destination. Alternatively, retain the existing lease while landbanking an increasingly scarce property in the tightly held Matakana Coast market. The best of the region is close at hand. Visit the Matakana Village farmers’ market, enjoy acclaimed local wineries and restaurants, play a round of golf, spend the day at Omaha Beach or launch the boat from Sandspit Marina, approximately 15 minutes away.

It is an invitation to put down roots, create something meaningful and become part of the enduring story of Matakana, Auckland, New Zealand.

Some properties are defined by their buildings. Sculptureum is an entire world created within its boundaries. Its name, a fusion of sculpture and museum, captures only part of its story. Over approximately 20 years, once-barren land has been transformed into one of the Matakana Coast’s most significant private gardens. Mature trees, sculptural forms and native nīkau palms create a sheltered microclimate, protected from prevailing winds and alive with native New Zealand birdlife. Around 1.5km of pathways weave through the grounds, revealing moments of beauty, surprise and quiet reflection. Beneath this remarkable landscape, substantial investment in infrastructure enhances the property’s resilience during adverse weather events. Located at 40 Omaha Flats Road in Auckland’s Rodney district, Sculptureum sits between Matakana Village and Omaha Beach, approximately one hour north of Auckland CBD by car. Vineyards, farmers’ markets, golf courses, beaches and the boating waters of the Hauraki Gulf are all close at hand. Currently operating as a world-class Matakana art, garden and visitor experience, Sculptureum has welcomed more than 400,000 recorded visitors. Its extensive infrastructure includes six art galleries, a gift shop, significant landscaped gardens and Rothko, the one-hat restaurant recognised as a leading regional dining destination. The Green Shed offers additional space awaiting development and a new creative vision. A modest on-site residence, presently used for daily management operations, reflects the property’s history of residential use. With Commercial and Mixed Use Rural zoning, Sculptureum offers exceptional potential. Subject to Auckland Council approval, opportunities may include premium short- or long-stay accommodation, expanded gardens and exhibitions, further dining and hospitality experiences, or complementary tourism and commercial ventures. The buildings could instead be repurposed to create a significant Matakana rural residence and lifestyle estate. Imagine a private sanctuary held within gardens cultivated over two decades. For a family, foundation or philanthropic organisation, Sculptureum offers something rarer still: the opportunity to shape an enduring legacy. Its established commercial operations could support a home for art, education, conservation or charitable endeavour, bringing enterprise and philanthropy together with purpose. The art collection is negotiable, allowing a purchaser to acquire all, part or none of it, and the freedom to continue Sculptureum’s artistic legacy or imagine an entirely new future. Prospective purchasers should undertake their own due diligence regarding residential use, development, commercial activities and future land use. More than an art attraction, garden estate or commercial property, Sculptureum is a landmark shaped by imagination, investment and vision. It's now ready for its next custodian and its next remarkable chapter.
