Listing # RX4660889 | Listed on 5 August

Nestled high above Mercury Bay on the Coromandel Peninsula, 61 Spikes Way is not just property — it is sanctuary. A rare and refined retreat for the discerning few, this extraordinary 24.67-hectare estate offers absolute privacy, dramatic elevation, and awe-inspiring views — a place where time slows, and the outside world feels far away.

This is not for the many. This is for those who value seclusion, prestige, and permanence.

A Hidden Gem for the Privileged Few

Concealed behind custom Corten steel gates and accessed via a wide, private carriageway, the estate unfolds across rolling ridgelines, native bush, and natural water features. The elevated contours deliver commanding views over Simpsons Beach, Mercury Bay, and out to the Alderman Islands — views that shift with the light and will never be built out.

Entirely off-grid, powered by a robust solar array, and with utilities to the well built shed at the lower reach, the property delivers rare self-sufficiency without compromise. Whether used as a luxury private residence, a secure bolt-hole, or a family legacy estate, 61 Spikes Way offers the rare combination of grandeur, discretion, and long-term security.

Crafted for Escape, Designed for Legacy

At the highest point sits a beautifully appointed, self-contained two-bedroom architecturally designed tiny home — a glimpse of what’s possible across this vast canvas. The land itself, formerly part of a working avocado orchard, is framed by lush native bush, winding streams, and well maintained grounds. It invites everything from ultra-private living to a future generational compound, with space for multiple dwellings, gardens, and luxury infrastructure (subject to consent).

The potential to develop or subdivide is underscored by expert reports and a 6.2-metre-wide driveway that far exceeds typical rural access standards — offering flexibility for those seeking to shape a larger vision. However, what truly sets this property apart is its uniqueness: there simply is nothing else like it on the market.

A Place That Will Endure

Whitianga is known for its beauty, but properties of this calibre — combining elevation, zoning, infrastructure, and privacy — are virtually never available. This is a once-in-a-generation holding that will be prized not only for its rarity, but for the sense of sanctuary it provides. In a changing world, this is somewhere to retreat, recharge, and preserve what matters.

Whether held as a private coastal fortress, a world-class residence, or a future-proofed family legacy, 61 Spikes Way is an offering of international calibre.

Highlights Include:

•24.67ha of elevated land with residential zoning

•Absolute privacy and panoramic ocean views

•Off-grid solar power system + services at boundary

•Established native bush, streams, and open land

•Wide 6.2m private accessway (development potential subject to consent)

•Minutes to Whitianga township and air access to Auckland

•Ideal for a secure retreat, ultra-private residence, or long-term estate

•Rare opportunity to secure a legacy asset in the Coromandel

This is not just real estate. This is a sanctuary. A legacy. A once-in-a-lifetime chance to own the last of its kind.

All development potential is subject to relevant consents and council approvals. Prospective purchasers are advised to undertake their own due diligence and seek independent professional advice.
