Paradise found - your sustainable Off-Grid Sanctua
A place to reconnect with nature, grow your own food, and embrace a more self-sufficient way of life.
Follow a peaceful pathway through beautiful subtropical native forest, beneath mature Nīkau palms and across clear freshwater streams, to discover a private, sun-filled sanctuary on Great Barrier Island. Set across 4.50 hectares of gently sloping land, this special property offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the freedom of off-grid living, surrounded by nature, with the space and potential to create your own sustainable lifestyle.
Just minutes from Mulberry Grove Store and the amenities of Tryphena, the property combines peaceful seclusion with convenient access to local essentials.
The land is a beautiful blend of established native bush, sunny open spaces and gently sloping clearings, with a rich diversity of indigenous trees including pūriri, rimu, kahikatea, nīkau, mānuka and kānuka. Birdsongs fill the air, freshwater streams wind through the landscape, and the surrounding bush provides a wonderful sense of privacy and connection to the natural world.
With 4.50 hectares to explore and develop, there is exciting potential to create a productive, sustainable haven tailored to your vision. Imagine establishing generous vegetable gardens, planting fruit trees, and orchards, creating food-growing spaces, or developing a permaculture-inspired lifestyle that works in harmony with the natural environment.
Sunny clearings offer opportunities for gardens, outdoor living, and recreation, while the surrounding native bush provides a tranquil backdrop to everyday life. Whether your dream is to grow more of your own food, live more simply, or create a self-sufficient family retreat, this property offers the space and freedom to make it your own.
Water security is another valuable feature, with a natural spring providing fresh water throughout the year, complemented by rainwater collection and storage tanks. Together, these resources offer a practical foundation for off-grid living and future sustainable gardening plans.
The main house and separate bunkroom have been fully renovated and are being sold furnished, making it easy to settle in and start enjoying island life. A generous selection of tools and outdoor equipment is also included to help maintain the lawns and landscaped grounds.
Artistic wall etchings created by a family artist add a unique, personal touch to the buildings, giving the property a sense of history and individuality.
Designed for relaxed, independent living, the property features off-grid power, fresh spring water, rainwater storage, ample tool and equipment storage, and a good supply of firewood for the wood stove. A gas stove provides added convenience for everyday cooking and those essential morning cups of tea.
Life here naturally spills outside. Enjoy a refreshing open-air shower, unwind in the outdoor bath beneath the trees, or make use of the indoor shower and original, character-filled ablution facilities overlooking the peaceful bush.
There are quiet places to read, sunny spots to relax, and room for family and friends to gather. A flat, cleared area provides the perfect setting for children to play, camping under the stars, or simply enjoying the freedom of having nature on your doorstep.
Whether you're dreaming of a sustainable island homestead, a productive garden and orchard, a peaceful family escape, or a simpler life closer to nature, this property offers a rare combination of privacy, natural beauty, and opportunity.
With established accommodation, off-grid infrastructure, year-round spring water, rainwater storage and 4.50 hectares of land to make your own, this is more than a property — it's an opportunity to shape a lifestyle around the things that matter most.
Find your own paradise. Grow your own future. Live life at your own pace.
