Set across approximately 7.2 hectares (17.8 acres) in one of Mapua’s most tightly held coastal pockets, Aranui Private Estate is far more than a residence. It is a substantial lifestyle holding defined by scale, privacy, versatility and abundance.

Positioned in the Nelson Tasman region at the northern tip of New Zealand’s South Island, Mapua is one of the area’s most sought-after coastal villages, known for its relaxed waterfront setting, vineyards, artisan producers and access to some of New Zealand’s most celebrated natural landscapes, including Abel Tasman National Park. The estate is located just moments from the shoreline and village, while remaining privately set within fertile, established grounds.

Constructed from enduring adobe block, the 308sqm main residence has been designed for both comfort and flexibility. A generous foyer introduces expansive living and dining areas, anchored by a substantial kitchen and scullery designed for gathering. The home offers three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a separate WC, a separate laundry, and multiple living areas, all flowing seamlessly to a wrap-around covered deck that extends the already generous footprint and creates effortless indoor-outdoor living.

Year-round comfort is ensured through radiator heating throughout, double glazing and a log fire.

A major point of difference is the estate’s exceptional level of accommodation flexibility. In addition to the main residence, the property includes a fully self-contained one-bedroom apartment positioned within its own wing of the home, ideal for extended family, guests or supplementary income. A workshop connected to one of the sheds, complete with utilities, provides additional flexible space for projects, storage, or potential workspace. A separate private wooden studio surrounded by established gardens offers a peaceful retreat suited to creative use or a home office.

The land is both functional and beautiful. Usable paddocks, supported by a shearing shed and stock yards, provide genuine lifestyle farming capability. A large pole shed and bay sheds deliver excellent storage, workspace and operational utility.

Established fruit trees, flourishing flower beds and productive gardens reflect the fertility and careful stewardship of the land. Outdoor living is equally compelling, with a pizza oven and outdoor fire anchoring spaces designed for entertaining, hosting and bringing people together.

Rarely does a property combine this level of privacy, scale, infrastructure and flexibility so close to both the coast and village amenities. Aranui Private Estate offers productive land, multiple living options and long-term opportunity within one of New Zealand’s most desirable coastal lifestyle regions.

Viewing is essential to fully appreciate the full scope, atmosphere and opportunity this remarkable estate provides.
