278 A Remuera Road, Remuera, Auckland

An extraordinary and rare offering on the northern slopes of Remuera Road: an expansive 1,700 sqm (approx) prime residential section with a distinguished provenance, originally owned and developed by Sir Edmund Hillary. This is a unique parcel of land that combines historical pedigree with modern potential — a large canvas in one of Auckland’s most coveted neighbourhoods.

Positioned down a long driveway on a secluded, sun-drenched site, the property enjoys elevated outlooks across mature treetops to Rangitoto Island. Seasonal light and a sheltered setting provide natural screening and a private oasis.

The topography and aspect allow for considered architectural planning to maximise views, indoor–outdoor flow and northern sun. With wide frontage and generous depth, the section provides opportunities for creative site planning, multiple living zones, terraced gardens and private courtyards.

Location is exemplary: mere metres from the boutiques, cafés and restaurants of Remuera Village, yet quietly removed from the bustle. The area offers premium schooling options —situated on King’s School boundary fence and zoned for Remuera Primary and the Double Grammar schools. Local parks, recreational facilities, and community amenities are all within easy reach as well as excellent public transport and arterial road connections to Auckland Central City.

This opportunity represents a rare chance to secure a significant, heritage-rich residential piece of land in a tightly held enclave. Whether you are seeking a forever home site or a developer/designer looking for a landmark project, this property presents exceptional scope to create something truly special in a prestigious location.
