Ultimate Coastal Sanctuary: 4.8 Ha of Potential

541 Southernthread Road, Hawkins Hill, Wellington

Perched high above the dramatic maritime landscape of the Cook Strait, this extraordinary 4.8-hectare lifestyle holding offers an unparalleled opportunity to create a world-class masterpiece. Situated within the highly exclusive, secure, and gate-controlled enclave of Southernthread Road-just off Hawkins Hill Road-this growing community is quickly becoming home to some of the region's most clever and astute off-grid dream builds.

Limitless Design Potential

Boasting an enormous building platform, the potential for your design is nearly limitless. Whether your inspiration leans toward a grand architectural showpiece, a sprawling multi-structure luxury retreat, a private cliff-top sanctuary, or a self-contained "Good Life" eco-house, this immense footprint grants you total freedom to construct your vision without ever compromising on space, scale, or absolute privacy. Best of all, you have total control over how you power your dream lifestyle. Enjoy the absolute freedom to build a completely self-sufficient, off-grid eco-sanctuary, or tap directly into the nearby mains power for ultimate convenience and ease of construction.

World-Class, Sweeping Views

From practically every single aspect of your future build, the views are nothing short of sensational. The vantage point commands a front-row seat to New Zealand's most iconic coastal scenery. On a clear day, your gaze will stretch across the turbulent waters of the strait all the way to the snow-capped peaks of the Southern Alps in the South Island, while the historic Karori Lighthouse stands guard on the rugged coastline below. Watch the Interislander and Bluebridge ferries meandering across the strait as they chart their course from the Wellington Harbour entrance over to the Marlborough Sounds. The beauty here is truly legendary, so much so that this very location was chosen to film the iconic, fiery sunsets for Peter Jackson's King Kong, because the evening skies from this vantage point are simply phenomenal.

An Off-Grid Paradise, Minutes from City Culture

While you will feel a world away in your own private oasis, civilization is just a short, scenic adventure away. This pristine section is located approximately a 20-minute drive from the tight-knit village community in the Brooklyn hills. You get the best of both worlds: ultimate off-grid seclusion and rugged coastal beauty, paired with remarkably fast access to the iconic Penthouse Cinema, cozy craft beers, and the vibrant bistro menu at Salty Pidgin

Seize this rare opportunity to secure a substantial piece of Wellington's south coast and build a lifestyle without boundaries. The same rural feel as Mākara and Ohariu Valley but better views and half the travel time to the CBD.
