Buy Individually or Secure the Entire Landholding
Held in the same family since the 1850s, this substantial Coolen Place landholding is now being offered to the market for the first time - presenting a rare opportunity to secure scale, zoning certainty, and genuine development potential within an established residential setting.
Comprising 13 fully titled sections averaging over 1,000sqm (more or less), the land is zoned MRZ2 – Medium Residential Zone 2 under the Waikato District Plan (minimum net site area generally around 400sqm (more or less), subject to council standards and servicing feasibility).
Tenders are invited for individual sections or for the complete subdivision as a strategic acquisition.
The Fundamentals
- 13 existing titles issued
Waste water allocation confirmed for current titles
- Generous 1,000m²+ average lot sizes
- MRZ2 – Medium Residential zoning
- Established residential location
- Available individually or as a consolidated holding
Potential gravity wastewater connection nearby (subject to confirmation)
Wastewater Capacity Confirmed
Recent confirmation from Waikato District Council infrastructure advisors indicates that each existing title has an individual wastewater connection allowance.
This significantly changes the development landscape for the property.
Subject to confirming a gravity connection to the existing wastewater network in Thorn Road or Coolen place the current titles may allow building to commence without needing to wait for wider network upgrades affecting the area.
This presents a rare opportunity for developers or builders to secure titled residential land with existing wastewater allocation already recognised by Council.
Purchasers are encouraged to undertake their own due diligence regarding connection design, levels and final servicing requirements and development contribution costs.
Staged Development Opportunity
Professional planning discussions suggest the land may also support a staged development approach.
One potential pathway could involve:
- Reconfiguring titles through boundary change to create smaller compliant lots (circa 400m²) toward the northern end of the landholding
- Retaining balance land for future development once wider infrastructure upgrades occur
- Structuring a turn-key development stage now, followed by future expansion
Indicative concepts suggest the broader landholding may ultimately support a substantially larger number of lots over time (subject to council approvals and infrastructure).
Strategic Scale & Future Potential
Acquiring the entire offering provides rare control of medium-density zoned land within an established township location where landholdings have been tightly held for generations.
Opportunities to assemble MRZ2 land of this scale are increasingly limited.
Whether you are a builder seeking immediate titled sites, a developer planning staged delivery, or an investor looking for long-term positioning within a growth corridor, Coolen Place presents a compelling opportunity.
