Andersons Cove, Mangawhai, Kaipara

An extraordinary private coastal estate

Only 90 minutes north of Auckland, where the city gives way to coastline and open sky, this exceptional estate sits elevated above the white sands of Andersons Cove.

Spanning approximately 48 hectares (118 acres) with a prized north-facing aspect, the property looks out across Bream Bay toward Bream Head and the distant silhouettes of the Hen and Chicken Islands.

A place of complete privacy, life here is shaped by the rhythms of the sea and surrounding landscape from the quiet sound of waves crashing ashore to the serenity of birdsong.

Architecturally, the estate is anchored by a statement residence designed by acclaimed New Zealand architect Andrew Patterson. Composed of interconnected pavilions, the home balances generosity of scale with a sense of warmth and retreat, featuring expansive living areas, seamless indoor outdoor flow, and thoughtfully separated guest accommodation.

A collection of distinctive secondary dwellings complements the main residence. The Potting Shed, formerly an artist's studio, has been reimagined as a secluded, self-contained escape set beside native bush. Clifftops Lodge provides a safari-style, off-grid experience with sweeping ocean views, while the Boatshed sits directly on the beachfront with riparian rights, creating a seamless connection between land and sea.

The land transitions from beachfront to rolling pasture and native bush, with orchards, citrus groves and natural water sources supporting a level of self-sufficiency. Currently operating as both a grazing property and luxury accommodation offering, it allows for flexible lifestyle or commercial use, with further building potential.

Set within 40 minutes of the world-class golfing and lifestyle destinations of Tara Iti and Te Arai Links, and just 15 minutes from Mangawhai's convenient coastal amenities, the estate offers a rare balance of accessibility and complete privacy. Two unrestricted helipads enable seamless arrivals and departures, reinforcing a sense of effortless connection despite the property's seclusion.

Offerings of this scale, privacy and direct ocean connection are exceptionally rare, representing a once-in-a-generation opportunity to secure a coastal estate of this calibre.
