Two Homes, One Epic Opportunity – Your Waitakere Adventure Starts Here!

Have you dreamed of a timber lodge escape, a dual-dwelling lifestyle where adventure begins at your doorstep? Welcome to 14 Te Aute Ridge – a property unlike any other, ready for its next chapter.

Two dwellings, two driveway entrances, unbeatable privacy and just over 12 acres of land to explore – the possibilities are as wide as your imagination.

Lovingly designed and held by the same owner for 40 years, this is the very first time this unique piece of Waitakere has come to market.

Tucked away amongst native bush, yet only minutes from Bethells Beach and Waitakere Township, the setting feels like something straight out of a film. The main timber lodge rises with dramatic high ceilings, rich wooden textures, and a log-cabin charm that makes you feel instantly at home. Brimming with quirky details and character from days gone by, it’s the kind of place where every
corner tells a story.

Inside, generous open living areas flow to sunny decks and outdoor spaces, perfect for fresh coastal air and moments of stillness amongst the trees. Accommodation includes two spacious bedrooms plus an additional living room – ideal for a studio, work-from-home space, or guest retreat. A character-filled bathroom and laundry add to the charm, while downstairs a large workshop and extensive covered parking provide plenty of practicality.

The secondary dwelling, privately set away from the main lodge, offers another adventure waiting to be unlocked. With a generous footprint, loft, and balcony, it’s a project with untold potential – just waiting for someone with vision.

Across the 12-acre estate, you’ll find a mix of native bush and open grassy clearings, perfect for children, pets, or simply exploring. Additional outbuildings, storage, and parking complete this remarkable offering.

Bring your tool belt & your vision – this property will be sold. Don’t miss it!

14 Te Aute Ridge is a deceased estate, being sold “as is, where is” by the administrators. Council holds no records of the dwellings, which are understood to have been constructed in the 1980s. LIM, Property File, and Title are available to all buyers.
