2 TE ARAI ESTATE , 51 LAKE ROAD, TE ARAI
Te Arai Estate – A Rare New Zealand Retreat This extraordinary estate embodies the essence of New Zealand luxury – privacy, tranquillity and connection to nature. Elevated on five acres within 20 acres of protected native forest, the property enjoys breathtaking panoramic views over rolling countryside to the Pacific Ocean and the white-sand beaches of the Mangawhai coast. Crafted with natural materials and refined architectural detail, the residence offers approximately 780sqm of living space designed for effortless entertaining and relaxation. The grand Great Room – with its vaulted timber ceilings and limestone fireplace – opens to expansive north-facing terraces where outdoor lounges and a covered dining area with open fire frame sweeping views. Below, a 20-metre heated pool, cedar hot tub, ice bath, infrared sauna and gymnasium create a private wellness haven surrounded by native bush. Accommodation is generous and beautifully appointed with four luxurious bedroom suites providing elegant accommodation for family and guests, complemented by additional guest spaces and staff accommodation. In total, the property can sleep up to 20 people across the main lodge, guest suites and the Ruru Barn, with six elegant bathrooms and multiple outdoor baths and showers that blur the line between luxury and landscape and connect living to nature. Sustainability and self-sufficiency are at the heart of the property’s design, featuring solar power, rainwater collection and advanced filtration. Organic vegetable gardens, fruit trees and beehives offer a true farm-totable lifestyle, while manicured grounds and native plantings blend seamlessly into the wider landscape.
Beyond the gate, adventure awaits. World-renowned Tara Iti and Te Arai Links golf courses are moments away, while surfing, fishing and hiking are all on your doorstep. And when it’s time to reconnect with the world, Auckland and its international airport are just over an hour away. This turn-key offering presents purchasers with genuine flexibility of use. Enjoy the property as a luxurious private residence for the exclusive use of family and friends, or explore a range of revenue-generating opportunities that could offset — or exceed — ownership costs. For overseas or part-time owners, on-site caretaking and property management services are in place, offering complete peace of mind that the estate is meticulously maintained, secure and presentation-ready year-round, whether the owners are in residence or not. This opens the door to a genuine income stream, with several paths to consider. A Luxury Lodge, Wellness Retreat, Luxury Rental or Events Venue. Owners may simply choose to retain it as a second home, generating income during unoccupied periods, or take a fully hands-off approach by leasing the property long-term to an established lodge or retreat operator. Whichever path is chosen, his is more than just a home it’s a place to gather generations, celebrate life’s luxuries, and experience the best of New Zealand’s coastal beauty in complete privacy. A rare and remarkable retreat, and a compelling investment, for those who seek peace, connection and perfection in equal measure.
