113 Wilma Road, Ostend, Waiheke Island, Auckland

A lifestyle block that’s central and just minutes to the beach is a rare find and this sunny acreage has even more than that to offer.

Situated along a quiet country lane, not far from Palm Beach, the Ostend hub, the schools and the car ferry, this fabulous, gated landholding enjoys a coveted north-westerly aspect.

It already boasts an established 1.5-acre vineyard of sumptuous syrah - a grape known to produce incredible Waiheke vintages - an adorable cabin, named 'ti kouka' (cabbage tree), with a covered deck.

The property is well fenced and divided into paddocks, with a driveway formed to the top of the land where a large carport, big enough to shelter a caravan and deck, provides shady respite from the balmy sun.

Through a farm gate and into the next paddock are the pretty vines, managed by a local vineyard, with swaying olive trees down to one side.

There’s a separate grassy paddock and beautiful native wetland at the bottom of the site, which marks the lower boundary of the property, before the picturesque valley sweeps up the other side.

This bucolic scene is already set up for glamping - and a chance to enjoy some wine on the deck while dreaming up bigger plans.

A substantial amount of work on concepts for a large house, barn and three visitor units has been done by the current owner, as permitted under the local district plan.

Reports, including geotechnical and wastewater documents are available on request, and the new owner could make use of these while working on their own specific design.

Indeed, the land unit allows for a single dwelling and barn to be built, along with visitor facilities for up to 10 guests.

This exclusive property presents an unusual opportunity - a place where you can build from scratch while literally enjoying the fruits of someone else’s labour.

Camp, glamp, landbank or develop, this peaceful acreage is a unique vintage that may not be repeated.
