Set deep within the native forests of the Brynderwyns, at 300 King Road, Mangawhai, Marunui offers a rare and meaningful way of living for those who feel most at home in nature. This is not a conventional property purchase, but an opportunity to become part of a long-established conservation community with a shared commitment to protecting one of Northland's most significant indigenous forest environments.
Marunui spans approximately 420 hectares of QEII-covenanted native bush, where kiwi call at night, kererū glide through the canopy, and waterfalls and walking tracks weave through regenerating forest. Life here is peaceful, private and deeply connected to the land.
Share 15 carries the right to a private dwelling site and use of a spacious five-bedroom, two-bathroom split-level home, designed for off-grid living. A Code of Compliance Certificate is already in place, giving buyers reassurance and the freedom to complete remaining finishing touches in their own time.
Ownership at Marunui is structured through shareholding in Marunui Conservation Ltd, which owns the land and all improvements. There are 18 shares in total, each tied to its own dwelling site. Shareholders enjoy full use of their home along with shared access to the wider property and its network of forest tracks, with access reserved exclusively for shareholders and their guests.
The community is small and considered, made up of both permanent residents and those who retreat here for weekends and holidays. What unites them is a shared respect for the land and a role as guardians of the forest, supported by ongoing track maintenance, kiwi protection work and shared conservation facilities.
The owners are seriously motivated to pass on the stewardship of this unique share and dwelling, and will look at all offers presented. Given the leasehold structure of the residences at Marunui, traditional bank mortgage finance is unlikely to be available, so the owners are especially open to discussing terms and conditions that reflect this.
For the right person, this is a rare chance to own a home within a protected landscape, with a genuine sense of belonging and community. Contact us today to arrange a viewing or request further information.
