From the listing agent
In the words of Andrew Dorreen, Precision Real Estate - Takapuna
Positioned on one of Takapuna’s most tightly held Golden Mile addresses, this is a rare opportunity to secure an exceptional freehold landholding with genuine flexibility. With subdivision consent already in place and architectural plans by Brent Hulena available for the individual sites, buyers have two clear options.
PURCHASE OPTIONS:
Option 1 – Buy As One House Site – $3,500,000
Purchase Lots 2 and 3 together, creating a combined site of approximately 488.7m². This provides an exciting opportunity to design and build one substantial standalone residence in an exceptional coastal location. Brent Hulena sketch available.
Option 2 – Buy As Two Separate Sections – $1,750,000 Each
Lot 2 – 263.1m² - Freehold vacant site – $1,750,000
Lot 3 – 225.6m² - Freehold vacant site – $1,750,000
Under the current subdivision consent, each individual site has been designed to accommodate a standalone two-level residence, with plans available to purchasers who have an interest. The proposed homes offer dedicated outdoor living and excellent accommodation, carefully configured to maximise functionality while working within the Mixed Housing Suburban zoning controls.
Alternatively, purchasing both sites together provides the opportunity to rethink the property as one larger house site and create a substantial new home befitting this outstanding Golden Mile position, subject to the necessary approvals.
With Thorne Bay at the end of the street, Lake Pupuke directly across the road, and both Milford and Takapuna within easy walking distance, this is blue-chip real estate in a location where vacant land is increasingly difficult to secure.
Buy one, buy both, or secure the entire site for one exceptional new home.

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.
Before you commit to a builder, learn what separates a home that performs from one that just looks the part.
