Situated in stunning, coastal Palliser Bay, Whangaimoana Homestead (meaning "Hospitality by the Sea") is a distinguished and historically significant residence that stands as a landmark on the Lower North Island coast.

This extraordinary historic homestead offers a rare chance to acquire a prestigious country estate featuring one of the most exquisite period houses in the Lower North Island. This is truly something special, our vendors have made the reluctant decision to pass the baton on, and they hope that the next custodian will appreciate the space and serenity they have enjoyed for nearly 50 years.

Immerse yourself in the opulence of Whangaimoana Homestead, set amidst a majestic array of 150-year-old trees on 15.01 hectares (more or less). Constructed in 1876 of native timbers designed to simulate stone, this grand Italianate revival style homestead exudes an unparalleled blend of history and luxury.

Sympathetically restored to preserve its early Victorian grandeur, the property features elaborate plasterwork, intricate slate fire surrounds, original timber floors and a striking carved grand staircase.

Recognised for both its architectural and historical importance, the exterior of the homestead boasts balustrading on balcony parapets, Corinthian verandah columns, and pediments above the sash windows.

A timeless residence of scale and grace, spanning across two levels, this grand home includes 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a selection of formal and informal living areas. Entertain in the stately dining room, relax in the gorgeous drawing room, or enjoy casual meals in the generous country-style kitchen and family dining area.

Adding further versatility, the former coach house has been converted into a charming self-contained separate abode complete with open wood fire and private entrance ideal for extended family, guests, or income potential.

A setting of peace and prestige, the property enjoys sweeping views and includes several character outbuildings, mature gardens, and expansive grounds with notable specimen trees. A paddock blooming with daffodils (20,000 were picked this year for the Cancer Society), and lush grazing land for horses or stock complete the rural idyll.

Whangaimoana Homestead is a unique blend of elegance, heritage, and coastal living. For those seeking a property of genuine distinction, it represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to be part of an enduring legacy.
