From the listing agent
In the words of Alex Smits, Ray White - Whangarei
Rarely do we find a property that offers such a mix of natural resources and creative freedom. Set on 6.76 hectares of rich volcanic soil, this land is more than just a lifestyle block - it's an opportunity to carve out your vision!
The Highlights:
- Natural spring water on-site and fertile volcanic earth.
- No building covenants, your imagination is the only limit. Design your dream home to capture the stunning views or bring your cabin!
- The Landscape: Currently in cut-over pine, offering a unique opportunity to either regenerate into native forest or develop into pasture or plant in fruit trees, create your own permaculture forest.
- Infrastructure: Fully fenced with a well-maintained central race for easy access across the property.
- Strategic Location: With direct access to State Highway 1 providing a perfect location for a home-based business or commercial venture.
- The property is large enough that at the top of the hill SH1 road noise is limited and the views are exceptional.
Located in the popular Whakapara district. The Hikurangi Village is just down the road to provide amenities, Whangarei CBD is an easy commute and the east coast is only 20 kms away!
This is your chance to secure a significant slice of land where the rules don't apply and the views never end.

Orientation we design around — see the contours on the aerial
Too far away to matter: nearest powerline 1.6 km.
Distances are from the parcel centroid to Topo 1:50k features (LINZ); site aspect is approximate, from the 1m LiDAR contours. Road frontage is a proxy — centreline intersection with parcel boundary, not a legal access measure. Confirm setbacks with a district-plan check before purchase.
