Rototuna Homestead Lifestyle Haven

PRODUCTIVE KAFFIR LIME-LEAF ORCHARD, SPACIOUS HOME, COASTAL SUB-TROPICAL POUTO PENINSULA LIVING

Live the dream on the Pouto Peninsula with this 1.58ha lifestyle property, offering peace, space, and the rare advantage of income from an established year-round Kaffir Lime Leaf orchard. Rototuna Homestead blends rural serenity with practical self-sufficiency and access to Northland’s coastal attractions.

Located around 15 minutes from Kellys Bay’s calm swimming beach and renowned Kaipara Harbour fishing, the property offers a relaxed rural-coastal lifestyle. Ripiro Beach, local Primary School, school bus routes, and community amenities are all within reach, while Albany Auckland is only about 3 hours away.

The modern 263sqm Rototuna Homestead features open-plan living flowing to a wraparound covered deck, plus a full upper-level primary suite. The home is warm, welcoming, and designed for easy country living.

A separate two-storey 4-bay garage-workshop adds significant extra space, including a large upstairs area with a lounge, bar, deck, and rooms suited to teenagers, hobbies, remote work, or potential accommodation.

Outbuildings include a Packing Room with bathroom, a Ute Shed, and a 3-bay Boat, Tractor Shed and other outbuildings – plus LOADS of fruit trees and enough raised veggie gardens to feed about three households!

The productive Kaffir Lime Leaf orchard includes over 400 trees with long-standing supply relationships, offering a low-maintenance, seasonal income stream. The orchard is spray-free, well protected by hail cloth and wind mesh, and supported by simple harvesting and distribution systems a new owner can potentially adopt.

The property supports a self-sufficient lifestyle, with multiple rainwater and spring-fed tanks, UV filtration, solar systems, vegetable gardens, fruit and nut trees, and space for animals. Native birdlife and quiet surroundings add to the sense of retreat. During Cyclone Gabrielle, the property remained fully functional, demonstrating its resilience and practical setup.

Rototuna Homestead offers a unique combination of lifestyle, income, and rural-coastal living – a chance to enjoy space, sustainability, and one of Northland’s most picturesque and peaceful peninsulas.
