Overview

Elegant Lifestyle Retreat

Ranginui Retreat is a restored 19th century homestead of rare beauty, set on approximately eight acres of secluded, landscaped countryside combining heritage charm with warmth and character. The current owners have completely renovated the homestead, seamlessly blending past and present. Refined elegance will capture you at the sweeping entrance before welcoming you forward to gathering spaces you will love to live in. This special home lends itself beautifully to special occasions, relaxed long lunches, celebratory dinners, slow mornings and late nights enjoying the beauty of the night sky. The property’s surrounding land is as captivating as the home with a harmonious blend of contoured slopes and working paddocks; saltwater swimming pool; tennis court; stables; tack shed and magazine worthy vegetable garden amidst European-inspired garden rooms, with newly developed wetlands attracting native birdlife such as tūī, fantails and kererū. Views extend toward the Ruamahunga River and Mount Bruce, reinforcing the property’s rural identity. Nestled within this property’s gardens is a charming self-contained cottage which was relocated from the Hawkes Bay and thoughtfully reimagined to provide privacy, comfort and the perfect space for extended family or possibly an additional income stream. Currently established boutique accommodation offering catering to both international and domestic visitors seeking privacy, nature and personalised service. Fly-fishing visitors, often travelling from overseas, are among its clientele, supported by relationships with local guides and the option of helicopter access. Others are drawn by the retreat’s discretion, with the property catering to guests seeking a more private, low-profile stay. Opportunities exist for small events, intimate weddings and curated experiences such as garden-to-table dining, as well as further development of eco-tourism initiatives aligned with New Zealand’s sustainability focus. The retreat sits within easy reach of regional attractions including Pukaha National Wildlife Centre, local vineyards and the walking tracks of the Tararua Range. Coastal destinations such as Castlepoint, along with popular towns like Martinborough and Greytown, are also accessible for day trips. Properties such as Ranginui Retreat offer multiple income streams with growth potential - or a fabulous generational family living option
