From the listing agent
In the words of David Maxwell, Future Isles
Introducing Lot 22 at Mataka Station: A pristine canvas awaiting your visionary touch amidst the breathtaking beauty of this remarkable property. Along with this bare land a striking architectural concept, designed by Roberts Gray Architects, has been envisioned for this site—seamlessly integrating with the natural contours of the land.
Nestled in a stunning location, Lot 22 offers an unparalleled opportunity to build upon a legacy asset. With sweeping views extending over the Pacific Ocean towards the Nine Pin and the Hole in the Rock, this site provides an inspiring backdrop for architectural ingenuity. The Roberts Gray vision imagines a series of geometric forms subtly carved into the hillside, at once embedded within the land and extending from it, evoking the essence of ancient ruins in a contemporary retreat.
Encompassing panoramic vistas of the horizon and picturesque rural landscapes, this property is a haven for creative minds. Moreover, Mataka Station boasts the distinction of hosting the largest private Kiwi population in New Zealand, contributing to coastal regeneration efforts through extensive pest eradication programs. This initiative has fostered an environment teeming with indigenous flora, fauna, and native birdlife. The station also enjoys many amenities such as the communal beach lodge and boat ramp launching facilities at Whale Bay.
Enjoy the big station living experience without the day-to-day hassles of running such a business. Decide on your build and landscape footprint then the remainder of the land is leased back to the station. Landscape and property maintenance services are readily available, ensuring that those who opt to use their property as a holiday home can enjoy the peace of mind of knowing that their asset is meticulously cared for to the highest standards.
Please note these renders included in the listing are conceptual and would be subject to building consent and approval of the Mataka Independent Design Review Committee.

Orientation we design around — see the contours on the aerial
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.
