Standing proudly within the historic grounds of 80 Wyllie Road, this remarkable heritage building is one of Papatoetoe's most significant and recognisable landmarks.

Originally established as the Church of England Orphan Home in the early 1900s, the site provided care, education, and shelter for generations of children. For over a century, it has remained an important part of the local community, carrying with it a rich legacy of service, compassion, and history.

Situated on 12,500m2 of pristine flat land, the iconic red building stands as a lasting reminder of that heritage.

For more than a century, these walls have witnessed countless stories of hope, care, resilience, and community. Today, they stand as one of South Auckland's most treasured heritage landmarks, waiting to begin their next chapter.

Note that this building is heritage and needs a lot of repair works. The vendors understanding is that the property cannot and will not be demolished. The vendors have taken this in to consideration in their price as this work is an opportunity for someone with a skill set in repairs and renovations.

The land also needs to be subdivided before final land area will be known, this process is part of the negotiations.
