After generations in the Gordon family, one of Waiheke's most remarkable coastal landholdings is being offered to the market.
Set along the island's spectacular south-eastern coastline, 630 Gordons Road encompasses approximately 18.78 hectares of elevated pasture and established native landscape, sweeping all the way to the water's edge. With over one kilometre of waterfront, a beautifully sheltered bay and expansive views across the surrounding waters, this is a property of exceptional scale, privacy and character.
The original family homestead sits elevated within the property, enjoying sweeping coastal views and retaining much of its original character. A driveway leads down to the waterfront, where a second, three-bedroom dwelling and boatshed sit along the shoreline. Further around the coastline stands the historic woolshed, an enduring connection to generations of farming and family life at Awaawaroa.
The existing buildings present intriguing possibilities, whether restoring and preserving elements of the property's heritage or exploring the potential to create an entirely new architectural vision within this exceptional coastal setting, subject to the necessary approvals.
The Gordon family's connection with Waiheke dates back to the 1860s, with generations living, farming and raising their families at Awaawaroa. Today, this is the last remaining piece of the original Gordon family landholding, bringing more than a century of history to an extraordinary waterfront offering.
In earlier days, visitors arrived by steamship at the Awaawaroa Bay wharf, making their way along the shoreline to the Gordon family's guesthouse on the neighbouring property. The working woolshed at 630 Gordons Road played its own memorable part in this history, transformed on special occasions for weddings, dances, church services and gatherings, with lanterns suspended beneath its substantial kauri beams. That history remains woven into the landscape, giving this extraordinary coastal property a sense of place and provenance that cannot be recreated.
For the next owner, the opportunity is equally compelling. Whether envisaged as a private family retreat, a restoration of the existing buildings or an entirely new vision for the land, 630 Gordons Road offers the space, setting and freedom to imagine something truly special, subject to the necessary consents.
What is being offered is increasingly difficult to replicate: the scale of the land, the waterfront, the privacy, the position and the opportunity to shape the next chapter of one of Waiheke's most significant coastal holdings.
