Set on the ridgeline of Holdens Road, this is a property that offers space, privacy, and a genuine sense of calm. With wide views, established grounds, and multiple dwellings, it's a home that works as well for everyday living as it does for a long-term vision.
The Main Residence:
At its heart is a thoughtfully designed home offering a sense of scale and versatility, built with longevity and environmental care in mind. With a 2.7m stud creating light and ease throughout, and north-east-facing oversized sliders in the lounge, dining, living, and master bedroom, it enjoys two wood-burning fireplaces, the convenience of a central vacuum system, as well as oversized garaging. Expansive hardwood decking wraps around the main dwelling, offering a luxurious level of indoor-outdoor flow in all seasons.
Natural materials have been chosen not just for their aesthetic, but for how they age and perform. This includes polished concrete floors that capture the warmth of the day and gently release it at night (repolished in 2025 so they gleam), and Rimu window jambs finished with eco-conscious stains. Eco-wool insulation is another careful choice, avoiding fibreglass. Plus there is the option of switching between the mains water supply and filtered tank water for added versatility and health benefits.
There's a real sense that this home was built properly, featuring oversized solid-core doors, carefully selected finishes, and a layout that enhances family life. It has been continually maintained and improved, including a full internal repaint in 2026 using low-VOC, hospital-grade paint, as well as an upgraded wastewater system last year. It's a home designed to stand the test of time; contemporary, classic, and resonant with care.
The Minor Dwelling:
The two-bedroom, immaculately kept minor dwelling is perfect for extended family, beloved grandparents, or a premium rental stream. It offers separation and privacy while remaining very much a part of the estate. With its own accessway and garage nestled at the crest of the property, the ambience is contemplative and calming, supporting peace of mind with arm's-length comfort for all. The wood-burner and central vacuum make it cosy and easy-care.
There's the option to continue using the minor dwelling as an Airbnb income stream, update it over time, or simply keep it as it is.
The Sleepout:
Added in 2010, the fully self-contained, removable sleepout comes complete with its own deck. Perfect for guests, returning family, or friends needing a place to stay, this space features its own independent caravan plug for electricity supply alongside gas califont heating.
As a Package:
Whether you're looking for a multi-family sanctuary, a home-and-income investment, or the ultimate work-from-home setup, this unique trio of spaces delivers.
The grounds feel established and peaceful, almost park-like, offering an abundance of privacy. It's the kind of setting where you can properly switch off.
There's also real history here; this land was once part of the early orchards and vineyards that shaped the Oratia and Henderson area. That legacy still comes through beautifully in the landscape and the way the property sits within it.
Location-wise, you're close to everything that makes this area special: the West Coast beaches, Oratia Primary School, Titirangi's cafes, and local markets filled with fresh, organic produce.
The land itself gives you room to think bigger if you want to, whether that's adding a pool, a tennis court, or simply enjoying the open space for horses, gardens, or even a petite vineyard (all subject to any requisite council consents).
This is a multi-dwelling dream; capitalise on the rental potential or bring your children or your parents for extended, multi-generational living options.
You will never again find a home that enjoys this level of thought, planning, and design.
This is not a property that needs overselling. It's a home that has been built, lived in, and cared for the right way, offering the next owner the golden opportunity to do the same.
