Set high above the landscape with sweeping rural views toward the peaks of Tongariro National Park, 3560A State Highway 4, Raurimu is a rare fusion of seclusion, sustainability, and executive-level comfort.

Designed for those who value privacy, independence, and connection to nature, the property operates off-grid while delivering the quality and scale expected of a premium retreat. Featuring five calmly decorated bedrooms (master has a walk-in wardrobe), two naturally inspired bathrooms, and a large laundry, it is well set up for any new purchasers.

Floor-to-ceiling outlooks frame vast skies, rolling countryside, and the dramatic alpine backdrop beyond. Whether used as a luxury family escape, corporate retreat, or high-end accommodation venture, this property leaves a lasting impression.

Throughout the large open-plan living space, you get a sense of the outdoors that flows to the entertainment deck through several sliding doors. The light-filled kitchen has plenty of space for any gathering, while how it all happens can be hidden away in the well-designed butler’s pantry.

Powered by solar technology with battery storage and complemented by a large woodburner with wetback system and radiators, this home has been designed for year-round comfort.

Here, mornings begin with birdsong and big skies. Evenings end under a star-filled darkness you just won’t get in town. With room for extended family, guests, or home-based ventures, the lodge provides flexibility to shape the lifestyle you’ve been planning.

This private sanctuary, on the edge of one of New Zealand’s most iconic landscapes, is a rare find indeed.
