70 and 70A Pebble Brook Road, Waitoki

One of Auckland’s most remarkable lifestyle properties, The Grange is a rare legacy estate where historic grandeur, natural beauty and future opportunity combine across approximately 54 hectares of rolling countryside. Originally built in 1865 for a prominent figure in Auckland’s early development, the residence is one of the city’s earliest grand homes. Carefully relocated to its current Wainui setting in 1990, the estate now enjoys a spectacular position between the Tasman Sea and Pacific Ocean, with views extending to Auckland’s skyline by night. Adding further long-term appeal, the estate includes a separate title for developed Lot 10 along with consented subdivision for five to six additional one-hectare sections Spanning approximately 632sqm, the home was thoughtfully enhanced by renowned architect Terence Hitchcock, blending heritage character with modern comfort while embracing the north-facing rural outlook. Elegant living spaces include multiple formal and informal lounges, a conservatory, generous family living areas and three-car garaging. A sweeping tree-lined driveway leads through secure gates to beautifully established grounds originally designed by Michael Burton. Mature hedging, rose gardens, fruit trees and resident white doves create a peaceful estate atmosphere rarely found so close to Auckland. The landholding offers exceptional versatility, with fertile grazing paddocks, productive hay fields and significant native forest including mature kauri. Rich birdlife further enhances the sense of retreat and connection to nature. Equestrian facilities include a 60 x 20 metre dressage arena, six stables, tack room, wash bay and substantial implement sheds. Privately positioned above the garaging, the expansive master suite is a true retreat, complete with its own balcony and sweeping views across the estate and surrounding countryside. Located within easy reach of Auckland CBD and close to sought-after schools including Kristin, Pinehurst and KingsWay, The Grange presents an extraordinary opportunity to secure one of the region’s most iconic country estates.
