300 King Road, Mangawhai

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 includes 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, offering reassurance and the freedom to complete remaining finishing touches in your own time. Off-grid living here is a conscious choice rather than a compromise, allowing you to live lightly within the landscape, with the bush as your backdrop and birdsong as your soundtrack. 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 with an associated dwelling site, and the share and dwelling site are inseparable. Shareholders enjoy full and undisturbed use of their home and shared access to the wider property, including an established network of tracks that wind through the forest. Access is reserved for shareholders and their guests, ensuring ongoing privacy and protection of the environment. The community is small and considered. Some shareholders live at Marunui permanently, while others retreat here for weekends and holidays. What unites them is a shared respect for the land and a collective role as guardians of the forest. Track maintenance, kiwi protection and conservation work form part of life here, supported by shared facilities and conservation equipment. Marunui is suited to buyers who value privacy, purpose and connection over convention. Annual contributions support the ongoing care of the land, infrastructure and community assets. For the right person, Share 15 offers something increasingly rare: a home within a protected landscape, a strong sense of belonging, and the chance to live with nature rather than alongside it. If this way of life resonates with you, we would be delighted to provide further information and discuss viewing options. The owners are genuinely motivated to pass on the stewardship of Marinus’ unique Share 18 and associated dwelling. With realistic expectations of market value, they invite all genuine interest. Due to the leasehold structure of the residences at Marunui, the owners understand that securing traditional bank mortgage finance is unlikely. They therefore invite all sincere offers and are open to discussing conditions that reflect the nature of the leasehold arrangement.
