Introduction

One of New Zealand's most ambitious community developments spans 185 hectares of natural landscape between panoramic sea views and the Brynderwyn Ranges, with Stage 1 offering 57 lifestyle sections ranging from 1,100 to 1,800 square metres. Over 50% of the site is designated for conservation, with 500,000 native trees to be planted and 50 hectares of existing native bush and wetlands protected by covenants registered on every title. The development targets net-zero across carbon, electricity, drinking water, stormwater, and sewage simultaneously, with a community microgrid aiming for 105% of annual power consumption. Mangawhai offers surf beaches, golf courses, fishing, local markets, boutique dining, vineyards, and native bush trails, with the new Ara Tuhono motorway providing a direct 90-minute connection to Auckland CBD. Mangawhai's population is growing at more than five times the national average, and one of the world's top-ranked golf courses is on the doorstep.
