Five hectares. Licensed hospitality infrastructure. Proven event capability.

376 Taiapa Road is not simply a lifestyle block, it is a fully consented rural enterprise with immediate operational upside.

Set in one of Muriwai’s most tightly held pockets, this estate combines a historic 1905 homestead with a purpose built 250sqm (approximately) hospitality pavilion seating up to 80 guests. Supported by an ‘On Premise’ liquor licence, the property is consented for up to 104 events per annum, two per week, while also allowing for a seven day a week operation creating scalable revenue potential.

Importantly, the consent allows the owner to either operate the venue themselves or lease the buildings to an independent operator under any brand. This level of flexibility is rare in lifestyle holdings and gives the next owners options: run a family-led venture, collaborate with an established operator, or secure passive income through a commercial lease. It ensures the estate can adapt over time, supporting future plans or evolving business ideas.

This is significant for Muriwai. Outside of the golf course, there is no comparable consented event infrastructure of this scale in the area.

What differentiates this holding is the genuine farm to plate ecosystem. Extensive orchards, citrus grove, raised productive garden beds and an all-season cultivation tunnel allows operators to create authentic paddock to plate dining, a model successfully demonstrated through the Good From Scratch venue and one that today’s premium wedding and corporate markets actively seek. It is immersive, experiential and commercially marketable.

The layout has been intelligently master planned

• Purpose-built architecturally designed pavilion 250sqm (approximately)
• Defined event lawns and guest arrival zones

•Ample parking and helicopter access (subject to proper regulatory approvals)
•Productive paddocks and animal pens
•Strategic screening and long-term landscape design
•Large fresh water holding tanks and the consented use of a natural spring (bore)
•CBD to the estate, 40km’s or approximately 40 minutes drive

The pavilion itself is architecturally striking, high stud, industrial rural aesthetic, purpose-built for functions, private dining and brand activations.

For hospitality operators, this is a turnkey venue with growth headroom.

For lifestyle buyers, it offers optional income without compromising privacy.

For high-net-worth and expat purchasers returning to New Zealand, it represents something rarer: a self-contained destination estate close to Auckland, a place to live effortlessly, host, entertain, and potentially develop further accommodation or new business arms (subject to council approval).

In a market where true five-hectare estates are rare and licensed hospitality assets even scarcer, 376 Taiapa Road stands alone. Live on the land, grow from the land, earn off the land.
