From the listing agent
In the words of Ashley Barton, Ray White - Carpenter
Forget compromising on someone else's floorplan - here is your opportunity to create a home that is completely yours.
Tucked away in a quiet Papa Place setting, this generous 674m² (more or less) freehold section offers the space, privacy and flexibility to bring your plans to life.
With services already on site, all the hard work has already been done for you- giving it a head start on the journey from section to finished home!
Picture waking up surrounded by greenery, enjoying your morning coffee amongst the native birds, and having the freedom to design the home you've always wanted - rather than trying to make someone else's work for you.
Why this one deserves a closer look:
- 674m² (more or less) freehold land
- Services already connected
- Peaceful, private Papa Place location
- Surrounded by established greenery
- Plenty of room to create a home and with living that you'll love
- 9B Papa Place is also available - ask me about securing both
Whether you're a first-home buyer ready to build, a family wanting to create something specifically for your needs, or a savvy buyer looking for land in an established North Shore suburb, this is an opportunity worth exploring.
And at this price point, the question isn't whether you could build here - it is *what* you could build here.
Come and walk the site. Stand amongst the greenery. Start putting your ideas together.
Don't just buy a house. Build the one you've always wanted!
Call me today for more information, or all the council files.

Site aspect
Falls ≈ west
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.
