Situated in the highly sought after Dalbeth Road location, this 24.06 hectare bare land holding offers a rare opportunity to secure a substantial block with future potential. Currently held as one title, the property comes with consent to be subdivided into two lots, allowing a purchaser the choice of retaining the whole parcel or completing the subdivision, and is also consented for off grid living.


The smaller lot, approximately three hectares, enjoys lake views and an elevated house site with access via Dalbeth Road. A metal road is already formed to the proposed building platform. The contour rises from the road to a steeper sidling before flattening at the top, ensuring privacy and outlook, with lake views.


The larger lot, approximately twenty one hectares, also benefits from a formed metal road and elevated house site with lake views. Most of this block has been replanted in second rotation pine trees, now around three and a half years old, while a nearby gully has been planted in natives of a similar age. This blend of reforestation and potential home site creates both a lifestyle and long term investment opportunity.


A property of this scale and versatility in such a premium lifestyle location is seldom available. Whether held as one substantial block, or developed into two, the options here are as attractive as the outlook.

414C Dalbeth Road, Hamurana, Rotorua

Held in the same family for approximately 71 years, Utowana – meaning Haven by the Water – is a rare freehold waterfront property offering riparian rights, timeless character and an exceptional opportunity on the shores of Lake Rotorua.

Set on 1,019 sq m of flat, freehold land at the foot of Kawaha Point, the property sits quietly within a small enclave of neighbouring homes. Sheltered and private, it feels wonderfully removed from the everyday, yet local shops and Rotorua CBD are only minutes away.

From the moment you arrive, Utowana has an unmistakable charm. The black cottage with crisp white timber windows sits amongst established cottage gardens and mature trees, while the lawn stretches gently towards the lake. A swing seat beneath the trees and timber boardwalk along the shoreline complete a setting that has been enjoyed by generations.mWith the water quite literally at the end of the lawn, the outlook is captivating. Expansive views reach across Lake Rotorua towards Mokoia Island, with changing light, beautiful sunrises and the peaceful rhythm of lakeside living creating an environment that is increasingly difficult to find.

Originally designed in the late 1930s by renowned architect James Chapman-Taylor, the home retains the character and simplicity of a traditional New Zealand lakeside cottage. A later extension, completed in the late 1980s, provided additional accommodation while remaining sympathetic to the original home.

Constructed in timber with timber joinery and a clay tile roof, the main residence offers three bedrooms, two bathrooms, kitchenette and living spaces. A separate sleepout provides a further two bedrooms and lounge area, giving excellent flexibility for family, guests and holiday living.

For some, Utowana will be exactly what it has always been – an authentic family lake retreat where summers are spent by the water and generations gather. For others, the freehold waterfront site, riparian rights and 1,019 sq m landholding will present an exciting opportunity to renovate, reimagine or create something new.

After more than seven decades in the same family, Utowana is ready for its next chapter and available to secure now.

Whether as a permanent home with a bit of tender care added, treasured holiday escape or future waterfront project, this is a special piece of Lake Rotorua, and an opportunity unlikely to be easily replicated.

Utowana – A Rare Waterfront Legacy on Lake Rotorua

Positioned alongside Lakeview Golf Course in one of Rotorua’s thriving tourism destinations, Fairway Cottages presents an exceptional opportunity to secure a beautifully established boutique accommodation retreat with proven income, outstanding guest reputation, and significant future potential.

Thoughtfully designed with both sustainability and guest experience in mind, this eco-conscious accommodation business has quickly established itself as a standout offering within the region’s tourism market. Operating at approximately 85% occupancy and achieving an outstanding 9.5/10 Booking.com rating, the property enjoys strong support from both international and domestic travellers seeking a peaceful, high-quality accommodation experience.

The three boutique cottages have been carefully crafted to deliver comfort, privacy, and connection to the surrounding landscape. Each cottage offers stylish contemporary living complemented by expansive private decking overlooking the golf course, creating a relaxed retreat atmosphere that consistently resonates with guests. Beautifully landscaped native gardens, outdoor entertaining spaces, spa facilities, and quality infrastructure further enhance the experience while supporting long-term sustainability and ease of operation.

Complementing the accommodation offering is the impressive American-style barn, combining striking design with highly functional living and operational spaces. Featuring self-contained accommodation, beautifully appointed interiors that will need a small amount of finishing, seamless indoor-outdoor flow, lined utility bays, and elevated views across the landscape, the barn adds both flexibility and character to the property.

Importantly, substantial future upside remains. Resource Consent for Tourism Activity is already in place for additional cottages, with only part of the property currently developed. Each existing cottage currently generates approximately $75,000 per annum, providing a proven and repeatable income model while illustrating the compelling opportunity to significantly enhance future returns through the development of additional cottages (subject to any required consents). The vision, infrastructure, and consenting work have been extensively undertaken, presenting future owners with a rare opportunity to further expand the accommodation offering or explore additional tourism, retreat, or boutique event possibilities.

Fairway Cottages is offered as a genuine turnkey opportunity, complete with established booking systems, integrated channel management, website and social media presence, and a strong reputation within the tourism sector. With Rotorua continuing to attract significant visitor numbers year-round, the property is exceptionally well positioned to benefit from ongoing tourism demand and future growth.

Combining lifestyle, income, quality craftsmanship, and scalability, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully executed hospitality property where the hard work has already largely been done.

Boutique Retreat with Proven Income

Where bold architecture meets refined luxury, this extraordinary residence is a statement in every sense. Positioned within the exclusive, gated enclave of Parkland Estates, this 894 sq m masterpiece stands as one of Rotorua’s most significant homes.
Set high on the foothills of Pukehangi, the elevation is exceptional. By day, panoramic views sweep across the city to Lake Rotorua, Mokoia Island, and Mt Ngongotaha. By night, the landscape transforms into a tapestry of lights beneath expansive, star-filled skies.
A true collaboration of engineering and design, the home brings together concrete, steel, rustic brick, and reclaimed American oak, each element chosen for both strength and visual impact. From the moment you arrive at the over-height woven steel entry door, the intent is unmistakable.
Inside, scale and detail take centre stage. The grand living space is anchored by a sculptural steel fireplace, while a circular glass feature offers a striking glimpse into the garage below. Floor to ceiling glazing dissolves the boundary between indoors and the surrounding landscape.
Designed for exceptional entertaining, the kitchen and living domain deliver on every level. A full bar complements the showpiece kitchen, where leathered granite surfaces, premium appliances, and a concealed scullery create a space as functional as it is impressive. A dedicated coffee station flows to a sunlit breakfast nook, perfectly positioned to capture the morning view.
A floating concrete staircase with steel balustrades and a statement chandelier leads to the upper level. The master suite is a private retreat, accessed via an engineered bridge. Here, a freestanding bath sits within the bedroom, oriented to the view, alongside a beautifully appointed ensuite and a dressing room of remarkable scale. Two additional suites offer the same level of luxury, each with walk-in wardrobes, balconies, and access to a meticulously finished main bathroom.
Further spaces include a media lounge, guest accommodation, and a gym with sauna, every element thoughtfully considered. The basement level is equally impressive, featuring a collector’s garage with turntable and a wine cellar designed for both display and immersive dining.
Outdoors, the infinity-edge pool extends toward the horizon, reinforcing the home’s connection to its remarkable setting. Mature native landscaping creates privacy and balance, with multiple outdoor areas designed for both entertaining and quiet retreat.
Specified without compromise, engineered with precision, and executed with vision, this is not simply a residence, but a landmark property of enduring significance.

Some homes are admired. Others are experienced. 113 Karewa Parade belongs firmly in the second category.

Positioned directly on Papamoa Beach, this architectural residence brings together award-winning design, craftsmanship and a coastal setting that is almost impossible to replicate.

Designed by award-winning Herbst Architects, the home has received both an NZIA Architecture Award and Master Builders Gold Award- recognition of a design that is as thoughtful as it is striking.

Cedar-clad architecture and vertical batten sliders create privacy while drawing light and the coastal outlook through the home. Inside, expansive views stretch across the Pacific towards Motiti Island, placing the ocean at the heart of everyday living.

Rich Kwila flooring, custom birch ply cabinetry and bespoke seating bring warmth and texture, while stacking sliders open the living spaces towards the beach.

At the centre, the designer kitchen connects seamlessly with open-plan living. A private internal courtyard offers another layer of tranquillity, complete with a Japanese-inspired ofuro soaking tub, an intimate retreat just moments from the ocean.

The accommodation is equally considered, with four bedrooms in total. The master suite is a private sanctuary, featuring panoramic ocean views, a balcony, dedicated dressing room and elegant ensuite. Three additional bedrooms provide generous accommodation for family and guests.

This is more than a beachfront residence. It is a rare piece of architectural design, where materiality, light, landscape and ocean come together with precision.

Photographs cannot convey its atmosphere, scale or extraordinary relationship with the coastline.

An exceptional property of this calibre deserves to be experienced in person. A private inspection is essential; once you stand here, the difference is unmistakable.

113 Karewa Parade, Papamoa Beach, New Zealand

Originally designed and built in 1961 as architect Guy Natusch’s own Bach, this distinctive Lake Rotoiti retreat is a compelling example of enduring mid-century design in an extraordinary waterfront setting.

Positioned on the lake’s edge, the home has been tastefully refurbished, introducing contemporary comfort while carefully preserving the character and integrity of its origins. Thoughtfully selected period fixtures and furnishings complement the architecture, creating a home that feels authentic, considered and entirely at ease within its surroundings.

At its heart, the open-plan kitchen, dining and living area draws the lake into everyday life. Beautiful water views form a natural backdrop, while doors open to the deck, lawn and lake beyond, creating an effortless connection between indoors and out. A wood burner brings warmth and ambience through the cooler months.

Accommodation comprises two double bedrooms, including one with an en-suite, complemented by the main bathroom and separate laundry. A later addition provides a wonderfully versatile third bedroom, bunkroom or rumpus, complete with a heat pump and offering an ideal retreat for children, teenagers or additional guests.

The west-facing position is a particular highlight, capturing afternoon and evening sun and creating an idyllic setting for long summer days that extend naturally into evenings by the lake. Situated within a peaceful bay shared with only two other lakefront properties, there is a wonderful sense of privacy and seclusion, removed from both road traffic and the lake’s main thoroughfare. The sheltered waters immediately in front of the property provide an inviting environment for swimming, paddling and family recreation.

Here, the quintessential Lake Rotoiti lifestyle begins quite literally at the lawn’s edge. The property offers true lawn-to-lake living, with the ability to launch directly from the lawn, a one-third share in a private jetty and exclusive use of a boatshed secured through a legal easement.

A nearby ski lane adds to the possibilities on the water, while the lake’s natural thermal waters and the renowned Manupirua Hot Pools are all part of the wider Rotoiti experience.

Architectural provenance, thoughtful refurbishment and an exceptional connection to the water combine to make this a particularly special Lake Rotoiti retreat. More than six decades after it was created, Guy Natusch’s original Bach remains a place designed around exactly what matters here, the lake, the sun and the simple pleasure of time spent at the water’s edge.

Mid-Century Design, Timeless Lakefront Living

Set within one of the Rotorua District’s most tightly held lifestyle pockets, this beautifully presented equestrian property spans approximately four hectares of flat, productive land on the northern shores of Lake Rotorua. Hamurana is well regarded for its sense of space and privacy, while still being an easy 2 minute drive to Ngongotaha village, less than 10 minutes Rotorua CBD, and key routes north.

The approach to the property immediately sets the scene. A tree-lined, sealed driveway of approximately one kilometre leads you quietly through the grounds, offering both a sense of arrival and practical, all-weather access.

Established native plantings create a natural boundary, enhancing privacy while still allowing for an open, expansive feel. The gardens are well established, with fruit trees and a chook pen adding those lifestyle elements that make a property truly liveable.

The main home has been tastefully updated for modern living. A well-appointed kitchen with a butler’s pantry and stone benchtops connects seamlessly to open plan dining and living, warmed by a log burner and enjoying views across the land. There are three bedrooms, a family bathroom, and an enclosed conservatory that captures all-day sun. Practical features include an Archgola carport, double garage, and integrated laundry.

A fully self-contained three-bedroom second dwelling adds real flexibility. Currently operating as a successful Airbnb, it would also suit extended family, guest accommodation, or staff, offering an immediate and adaptable income stream.

The land itself is a standout, flat contour, well-fenced pasture with 100% mowable contour, established in plantain and clover. It is equally suited to grazing, equestrian use, or simply enjoying the space.

For those with equestrian interests, the infrastructure here is both substantial and well-considered. There are four large stables featuring a concrete breezeway, rubber matting throughout the interior, automated water troughs, and a misting system for warmer months.  These are supported by four generous day yards, a truck/float shed, a large tack room, and tie-up bay, all with floodlighting for year-round use.

The 40m x 60m sand and pumice arena, also fully floodlit, is a real highlight. A three-bay, double-sided shed with both concrete and dirt flooring provides additional storage or working space.

Opportunities combining quality equestrian facilities, dual living, and flat, usable land in a location as sought-after as Hamurana are rarely available. Early inspection is recommended.

Plus GST if any.

Where Equestrian Excellence Meets Lifestyle Living

Privately positioned beyond an elegant gated entrance, 159 Kawaha Point Road is an enchanting lake property where established gardens, character architecture and an exceptional lakeside setting come together across two titles.

A hot mix driveway and hand laid stone curbing winds beneath a canopy of mature trees and lush plantings, creating an immediate sense of seclusion. At its heart sits a beautifully cared for 1950's weatherboard and stone residence, elevated above Lake Rotorua and enjoying captivating views across the water to the city, Mount Tarawera and surrounding rural landscape.

Arranged over two levels, the home offers generous and versatile living while retaining the warmth and personality of its era. Upstairs, the spacious master suite opens to a balcony overlooking the lake, with a shared ensuite also serving the adjoining guest bedroom. A formal lounge with gas open fire, elegant dining room positioned to enjoy the sunset and sunny breakfast nook provide a collection of inviting spaces from which to relax, entertain and enjoy the outlook. The kitchen, finished with composite marble benchtops, is both practical and beautifully positioned within the home.

Downstairs provides excellent flexibility for family and guests. A large bedroom with ensuite and kitchenette creates the option of a private guest wing or self-contained retreat, complemented by a study or second living area, an additional bedroom and bathroom. An expansive laundry, built-in wine area and excellent storage add further practicality, while underfloor and central gas heating ensure year-round comfort.

It is outdoors, however, where the magic of this property becomes unmistakable. Mature specimen trees, flowering gardens and established planting create a wonderfully private, park-like environment, with pathways leading down through the grounds to the lake.

At the water’s edge, a flat lawn provides an idyllic place to sit and watch the changing light across the lake. Two jetties, an extensive boardwalk and a traditional boathouse with winch and haul-out facilities make the waterfront as functional as it is beautiful. From boating and swimming on summer days to quiet evenings beside the water as the city lights appear across the lake, this is a setting to be enjoyed throughout the seasons.

Kawaha Point remains one of Rotorua’s most admired lakeside locations, valued for its established character, tranquillity and proximity to the city. Approximately six minutes from the CBD, the property is also conveniently placed for Rotorua's restaurants, Redwood Forest and renowned recreational attractions.

Private, established, and rich in character, this property presents a rare opportunity to secure an exceptional piece of Rotorua lakefront.

Timeless Lakeside Living at Kawaha Point

Positioned within the exclusive Brunswick Park enclave, this exceptional lifestyle property delivers a striking balance of architectural design, privacy, and modern comfort across 1.5456 hectares of land.

Elevated to capture sweeping lake views, the setting is both peaceful and private, with beautifully established landscaping surrounding the home and expansive grounds offering flexibility for future use or simply enjoying the natural environment.

Crafted as a contemporary Lockwood residence, the home makes a bold first impression with its dramatic rooflines and expansive glazing. Inside, the design is warm yet sophisticated, with soaring timber ceilings and light-filled open-plan living that connects seamlessly to the outdoors.

At the heart of the home, a stunning black kitchen creates a real sense of drama and style. Complete with high-spec appliances, engineered stone benchtops, and quality fixtures and fittings, it is both functional and visually striking, perfectly suited to everyday living and entertaining alike.

The layout offers versatility, featuring two bedrooms plus a dedicated media room that could easily serve as a child’s bedroom, providing options for families, guests, or working from home.

Living spaces extend effortlessly to generous timber decking, creating multiple areas to relax or entertain while taking in the tranquil surroundings and lake outlook.

Adding further appeal, a separate building , Ataahua incorporates additional garaging, a gym with sauna, and a full bathroom, enhancing both lifestyle and functionality. Outdoors, the property continues to impress with a purpose-built entertaining kitchen complete with pizza oven and dish drawer, along with a separate utility shed.

Two distinct outdoor zones each feature their own fire, with one complemented by a spa pool. A private heated plunge pool  with subtle etched glass, and terraced landscaping provide multiple spaces to unwind, from quiet mornings overlooking the lake to evenings enjoying the setting sun.

Finished to a high standard throughout, the home offers a cohesive sense of quality and comfort, with the option for the property to be sold fully furnished, allowing for a seamless move-in or turnkey holiday retreat.

Recognised as the 2025 Lockwood House of the Year, this is a property that truly stands apart, offering architectural distinction, lifestyle flexibility, and a premium position in one of Rotorua’s most sought-after locations.

32 Collingwood Drive, Tikitere

A compelling Hamurana lifestyle offering where the outlook, home and infrastructure come together seamlessly. 

Tastefully renovated family home, very spacious and enjoying sweeping rural and lake views, 951 Hamurana Road brings together contemporary family living, genuine lifestyle functionality and an established boutique farm-stay offering in an impressive Hamurana setting. 

Originally built in the 1980s, the approximately 250 sq m home has been extensively transformed to create a warm and contemporary residence. Generous proportions overall with four spacious bedrooms complemented by beautifully updated bathrooms and relaxed living spaces that connect naturally with the outdoors. The master suite is particularly impressive, offering excellent space, a walk-in wardrobe, stylish fully tiled en-suite and direct access to the deck. A beautifully finished family bathroom features floor-to-ceiling tiling and a spa bath.

At the centre of the home, the kitchen, dining and living areas create an inviting everyday hub, warmed by excellent heating and framed by views across the countryside towards Lake Rotorua. From throughout the home and property, the outlook is a constant presence, an ever-changing backdrop of lake, farmland and open sky. 

Outdoor living is equally appealing. A substantial covered and heated entertaining area extends the living spaces year-round, complete with spa pool and an outlook that makes it an easy place to linger.

For those needing serious storage, workshop or lifestyle infrastructure, the shedding is exceptional. A standalone double garage is complemented by a further three-bay shed offering additional garaging and storage, while a large enclosed half-round barn provides impressive space for machinery, vehicles, workshop use or the many extras that come with country living. Adding another dimension, the property is currently operated as a boutique farm stay accommodating up to ten guests. 

Built around the peaceful rural environment, lake views and interaction with farm animals, it offers an established accommodation concept for those wishing to continue the venture, while remaining equally appealing as a private family lifestyle property. 

Further opportunity exists with the adjoining bare landholding of approximately 3,318 sq m, which is also being offered for sale. This may be purchased separately or in conjunction with 951 Hamurana Road, providing purchasers with the option to secure a larger overall holding and further enhance the lifestyle opportunity.

Privately positioned on Hamurana Road, the property feels distinctly rural while remaining convenient to Ngongotaha Village and Rotorua, with excellent access towards Tauranga and the wider Bay of Plenty.

Elevated Lifestyle Living with Sweeping Lake Views

At the end of a private road, tucked into established native bush on a secluded Lake Rotoiti peninsula, this remarkable property feels wonderfully removed from the world around it. With no neighbouring homes visible and views of the lake through mature trees, it is a place defined by privacy, character and an enduring connection to its natural surroundings.

Originally built in the late 1950s, the Lockwood home was later extended by architect Bill Massey, creating a distinctive residence that has evolved over time while retaining the warmth and personality of its origins. Once an artist’s retreat, there is a sense of creativity and history woven throughout the home.

The original ground floor centres around an open-plan kitchen and dining area, with doors opening to a wrap-around deck and outdoor entertaining space amongst the native trees. A separate lounge provides a more intimate place to retreat, while a bedroom and adjoining wheelchair-friendly bathroom offer practical accommodation on this level. Timber joinery complements the Lockwood character, with a woodburner and heat pump providing year-round comfort.

The architectural addition above brings another dimension to the home. Reached via a striking stairwell framed by floor-to-ceiling glazing, the upper level draws the surrounding bush and lake outlook into the interior. A generous bedroom with adjoining lounge and walk-in robe opens to its own private deck, while an additional room provides flexibility as a single bedroom or office, complete with wardrobe and loft space.

A mezzanine overlooking the dining area below creates one of the home’s most memorable spaces and also houses the recently tuned grand piano.  Music can float to the dining and living area below. Leading from here is a further large double bedroom with its own toilet and hand basin. A bathroom with bath, separate shower and toilet completes the upper level.

The substantial basement provides an impressive amount of additional space and has been used as a workshop area, making it ideal for projects, hobbies or practical lake-life pursuits. A workbench is already in place, with the basement also incorporating laundry facilities and a bathroom with separate shower and toilet. The home also incorporates a garden shed with magnificent lake views and a separate area for tool storage.

At the lake edge, the lifestyle becomes unmistakably Rotoiti, with it's own jetty for mooring fishing boats or yachts, and a platform for morning breakfasts.  A shared private boat ramp makes access to the water wonderfully convenient. Directly across the lake are the renowned Lake Rotoiti Hot Pools, one of the lake's most treasured destinations, almost on the door step.

Private, intriguing and rich in character and history, this is far more than a conventional lake house. It is a secluded Lake Rotoiti retreat where architecture, native bush and the water come together in a setting that feels genuinely unique.

Tender: Closes 4:00 p.m. Thursday 19 November 2026, NZSIR Rotorua (unless sold prior)

A Hidden Retreat on Lake Rotoiti

Privately positioned across approximately 2.9 hectares, 379 Tauranga Direct Road presents an exceptionally versatile lifestyle opportunity where family living, income and business can comfortably coexist.

Elevated and nicely removed from the working areas of the property, the substantial four-bedroom main residence enjoys privacy amongst established planting and a wonderful sense of space. Generous living areas provide room for family life to unfold, while the decking creates an easy connection outdoors for entertaining, relaxing and enjoying the rural surroundings.

Adding another dimension is the well appointed, standalone two-bedroom cottage currently utilised as Airbnb accommodation. Completely separate from the main home, it provides an attractive income opportunity while equally lending itself to extended family, guests or independent living.

A further standalone building is home to an operating beauty studio, with two treatment rooms and its own facilities. Well presented and established for its current purpose, it offers an excellent work-from-home environment with the valuable separation of business and private life. For future owners, the possibilities for this space extend well beyond its present use. 

The land itself is highly practical. Nine flat grazing paddocks are complemented by multiple farm buildings, extensive shedding, stock facilities and generous vehicle access, providing genuine functionality for those with animals, equipment, hobbies or simply a need for additional space.

Despite its rural setting, convenience is a real strength. Positioned on the Tauranga route, the property offers easy access towards the coast while Ngongotaha and Rotorua are both readily accessible for schooling, shopping and everyday amenities. 

This is a property that can adapt remarkably well to different stages of life, a family lifestyle, home and income, business base, multi-generational living, or a combination of them all.

With the owners transferring and committed to their next move, their instructions are clear: all offers are welcomed and will be seriously considered.

Lakefront Living at Hinemoa Point

There are places on Lake Rotoiti that are admired, and then there are those that are so tightly held they rarely become available.  Set within the tightly held waters of Hauparu Bay, this exceptional freehold lakeside property presents an increasingly scarce opportunity to secure a substantial piece of one of the lake’s most coveted settings.

Launch the boat from your own jetty, stroll from the deck for a morning swim or share an evening drink with family and friends as the sun sets. Sheltered, private and renowned for its deep water, Hauparu Bay has long been regarded as one of the lake’s most desirable enclaves.

At the heart of the property is a wonderfully authentic four-bedroom family bach, relaxed in character and designed around the lake. The main living level is open and generous, with a modern log burner creating a natural gathering point alongside the kitchen and dining areas. Expansive glazing and French doors draw the view inside and open to the renewed deck, lawn and water beyond, creating an effortless connection between the house and the lake.

A double bedroom, bathroom and laundry are also located on this level, with internal access to the garage. Upstairs, three further bedrooms provide plenty of room for family and guests, while a sun-filled conservatory offers a peaceful place to read, retreat or simply sit and watch life on the lake.

Native hardwood floors, well-stocked bookshelves and the easy informality of a true Kiwi bach give the home an enduring warmth. Outside, the practicalities of lake life are exceptionally well catered for. The boat garage features through-access doors directly to the slipway, while a separate shed provides storage for kayaks, water skis and all the essentials of summer.

The property has an equally special history. Purchased almost 40 years ago by Sir David Beattie, New Zealand’s 14th Governor-General, it has remained in the family ever since, enjoyed by successive generations as their much-loved Rotoiti retreat.

Comfortable and inviting exactly as it stands, there is also exciting potential and scope to renovate or enhance, in time. 

Days here are shaped by the water, an early morning ski, trout fishing, boating across the lake, children swimming from the jetty or long afternoons on the lawn as the sun moves across the bay.

After almost four decades in the same family, this remarkable Hauparu Bay property is ready for its next chapter. A rare holding, an extraordinary position, and the opportunity to create a Lake Rotoiti legacy of your own.
