From the listing agent
In the words of Anna Sareczky, Synergy Realty Ltd
Elevated Sanctuary | 10 Acres of Native Bush | Below CV
Escape the subdivision squeeze and secure 4.07ha (approx. 10 acres) of pure Waimauku serenity. Elevated well off the road for total privacy, 853B Old North Road offers a rare "blank canvas" for those seeking a legacy lifestyle. With an exceptional residence already designed for the site, you can leap immediately into your build process or create a bespoke masterpiece tailored to this exquisite environment.
Highlights
- Build-Ready Platform: Elevated site captures stunning views skimming over pristine native bush toward the horizon and the iconic Sky Tower.
- Natural Wonderland: Explore meandering tracks leading to a pristine clearing - a playground for kids and a private retreat for adults.
- Certainty & Value: Indicated with a sharp "Enquiries over $850k", offering significant value against the $993,000 CV.
- The Blueprint: A propsed building platform and access to Signature Homes plans provide a clear path forward for your rural transition.
Provenance and environment:
If you have children you are hoping to introduce to a more free-range lifestyle still proximate to wonderful schooling options and excellent facilities, their initial meandering walk through an unending playground of trees, hut-making, bird-watching, and camp-building will have them captured and quite excited enough to sustain the build-time of creating your own dream home.
Schooling and recreation:
Zoned for Woodhill Primary, Waimauku School and Kaipara College children are well cared for, and the locally owned and run restaurants, cafe's wineries and of course the stunning black sand West Coast beaches will make weekends absolutely laden with joy.

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.
