Whale Bay Ridge: Aislamiento Y Sentido Del Lugar

Set between Whale Bay and Rangihoua Bay, Whale Bay Ridge offers a rare opportunity to live within one of New Zealand’s most exclusive coastal landscapes. Designed by MAP Architects, the home is arranged in three cedar-clad pavilions linked by a sheltered courtyard, with sweeping views across the Bay of Islands — from the Hole in the Rock to the hills of Waitangi.

Occupying a 22-hectare title, the residence itself sits on a modest developed footprint, with the balance of the land leased back to Mataka Station — ensuring privacy and scale without the responsibilities of land management. Owners also enjoy exclusive access to the station’s private beaches, boat facilities, and 1,148 hectares of protected farmland and native bush. A rare combination of architectural simplicity, natural beauty, and legacy ownership in one of New Zealand’s most safeguarded coastal environments.

Future Isles has collaborated with Edition Office to create a conceptual architectural study, exploring one possible vision for the future of Whale Bay Ridge. The existing MAP Architects-designed residence remains a thoughtful and enduring response to the landscape and is enjoyed by the present owners as it stands today.

We have been instructed to present all genuine interest and offers for consideration. The property is offered by way of Deadline Sale, closing Thursday 27 August.
