Sculptureum is not simply a property. It is a platform for legacy - one that sits at the convergence of art, land, and vision in a way that exists nowhere else in New Zealand.
Positioned within Matakana an emerging coastal enclave increasingly referred to as the Hamptons of Auckland and gateway to Northland - the estate comprises two significant freehold titles totalling 10.19 ha. Located less than an hour from central Auckland, minutes from Omaha Beach, and set within a landscape of curated gardens, vineyard surrounds, and immersive installations, Sculptureum has established itself as a destination of genuine national and international standing.
Over 800 curated works including pieces by Chihuly, Cézanne, Rodin, Picasso, and the Cracking Art Group are woven through six galleries and 1.5 kilometres of sculpted garden pathways. The Rothko restaurant anchors an exceptional hospitality offering, with a new Chef's Table experience in development. Visitor numbers have exceeded 400,000 to date. Ranked third best attraction in New Zealand on TripAdvisor.
The second title - 4.5 ha of boutique vineyard with views to Great Barrier Island sits alongside undeveloped flat land on the primary 5.69 ha title, together presenting a clear pathway for boutique accommodation, art-integrated villas, wellness, or premium residential development. Auckland Council has recently approved a 17 unit tourist accommodation facility directly adjacent. Nearby, Te Arai Links and Brick Bay signal the calibre of development this corridor is attracting.
The region remains early in its evolution. Sculptureum sits at the centre of its momentum.
The ownership structure allows flexibility across full acquisition, partial title acquisition, or joint venture partnership. The vendors are prepared to remain involved through transition. In global context, opportunities where land, narrative, and scale converge in a single holding are increasingly scarce.
