FORMERLY RATAROA BOUTIQUE LODGE

Formerly operating as a lodge and now enjoyed as a family home with a separate Airbnb known as the Rataroa Bush Cabin, this exceptional property offers flexibility for extended family living or a compelling business opportunity.

A winding, native-lined driveway creates a memorable arrival, drawing you into a private setting of established bush, birdsong and space. Set across approximately 14.32 hectares (more or less), the property features native bush walking tracks, panoramic views across the Firth of Thames to the Coromandel Ranges, and a substantial 326sqm (more or less) residence — all just 12 minutes’ drive (9km) from the SeaBird Coast and the shores of Miranda and Kaiaua.

The main dwelling was built in 2002 and constructed from Hebel block (autoclaved aerated concrete) and fibre cement board. The builder’s report refers to the home as a high-specification dwelling, finished to a high standard using quality materials throughout. Generous proportions and multiple living areas provide excellent flexibility for family life, entertaining and accommodating guests.

The entranceway is striking, featuring a tranquil water feature and native gardens, while the home has been carefully designed to maximise its outlook. Oversized family living incorporates dining and a schist fireplace, with a large sunroom extending from this space. The kitchen is well equipped with stainless steel benchtops, abundant storage and a walk-in pantry.

Accommodation is extensive, with four bedrooms plus an office and four bathrooms. The master suite is oversized and includes its own lounge, walk-in wardrobe and ensuite. A second master-style, semi self-contained wing is positioned on the eastern side of the home, complete with its own lounge, kitchenette, bedroom and ensuite — ideal for extended family, guests or independent living.

A true highlight is the Rataroa Bush Cabin, completely separate from the main home and privately positioned within the native bush. This self-contained retreat currently operates as boutique accommodation and has proven strong appeal for guests seeking a secluded nature escape within close proximity to Auckland CBD and the international airport. Located within the Golden Triangle, it offers excellent income potential. The cabin includes its own parking, an established access track, substantial native plantings and a cedar hot tub — delivering the type of experience many travellers and professionals actively seek.

This is a property that offers more than space - it offers options. A private bush retreat, close coastal access, income potential, and a setting that feels established, intentional and deeply connected to the land. With the SeaBird Coast and Miranda’s renowned shoreline nearby, fishing, birdlife and coastal recreation are all within easy reach.

A rare and compelling opportunity for those seeking a lifestyle shaped by nature, with flexibility for the future.
