Villa with garden Auckland (New Zealand)

Rich in history and built in a prime position at the Eastern end of St Heliers Bay in 1884, this grand and prominent home offers a unique and rare opportunity. Constructed using materials brought from England on sailing ships, the home was exceptionally well built and designed to stand the test of time. These materials were used as ballast for the long sea voyage. Once anchored in the bay, the materials were rowed ashore to the beach below the property and carted up the hill to the site. This gorgeous Victorian residence has been a landmark in St Heliers since the early European settlers arrived. Its architecture and design are iconic, and after being held by the same family for over 60 years, a rare opportunity now presents itself for a new custodian to guide it into its next chapter. Positioned on an elevated site regarded as one of the best in the bay, with easy access to the beach, it was the first home built at the Eastern end of St Heliers Bay. The home captures sweeping views along the beach, across the bay to the city, and over the harbour to Rangitoto. It also enjoys views of North Head, the East Coast Bays, and the shipping channel. The home sits within an affluent seaside enclave known for boutique shopping, acclaimed cafe's, and beautiful beaches. The property is within easy walking distance of local amenities and features a private gated walkway to the beach and village via Cliff Road. The two-storey, 234sqm (approx.) character home comprises three titles and sits on 865sqm (more or less) of land. It is currently configured as two separate apartments: a three-bedroom residence upstairs and a two-bedroom residence downstairs, connected by an internal door. Alongside is an additional parcel of vacant land, offering exceptional flexibility and future potential. Bring your architect and make the most of this once-in-a-generation opportunity. There are many options: •Retain the apartments as income-generating rentals in a high-demand location and build another home on the vacant section behind. •Restore and extend the existing residence into a substantial family home, enhancing its beauty and grandeur. •Redevelop the entire site under the Residential Mixed Housing Urban zoning (subject to council approval).

ABOUT THE AREA Ngararatunua, also spelled Ngāraratunua, is a serene semi-rural community nestled on the fringes of Whangārei, a city in New Zealand’s Northland Region on the North Island. Its location places it within a historically rich area of the country, often considered the birthplace of the nation due to its proximity to significant historical events. The community offers a peaceful, country environment with a rural outlook, yet remains conveniently close to city amenities. For instance, the popular Kamo Village is just a short drive away, and the Whangārei Town Basin, with its waterfront dining and attractions like the Hundertwasser Art Centre, is also easily accessible. The heart of Ngararatunua is the Ngāraratunua Marae, a cherished Māori cultural venue and a central meeting place for several hapū (sub-tribes) of the larger Ngāpuhi iwi (tribe). These include Ngāti Hau, Ngāti Hine, Te Parawhau, and Ngāti Kahu o Torongare. The marae is a living embodiment of Māori heritage, where the meeting house (wharenui) is a beautifully crafted structure that tells the stories of ancestors and lineage. It is a space for cultural events and community gatherings, upholding the values of manaakitanga (hospitality) and operating under traditional tikanga (protocols). An important historical feature of the marae is the Te Paea Soldiers’ Memorial Hall, which serves as the wharenui (meeting house). It was officially opened in 1954 and is named in honor of Te Paea Cherrington (d. 1937), an influential tribal leader and dedicated member of the Mothers’ Union. This memorial hall signifies the community’s deep-rooted traditions and its connection to both tribal history and New Zealand’s national history, serving as a focal point for the local Māori community to connect and honour their heritage. For travelers, the closest and most convenient airport to Ngararatunua is Whangārei Airport (WRE). This regional airport is situated approximately 4 nautical miles southeast of Whangārei city, in the suburb of Onerahi, and serves as the primary air gateway to the Northland region. Whangārei Airport offers scheduled flights, most commonly connecting to Auckland, making Ngararatunua a relatively accessible destination for both domestic visitors and international travelers flying into New Zealand’s major hubs.
