Vineyard, sculpture gardens
and a private helipad.
A considered advisory practice for owners and buyers of rare coastal and lifestyle landholdings across the Matakana Coast — with a specialist focus on legacy properties.
Strategy before transaction — positioning, timing and value advice for both selling and acquiring.
Considered marketing and elevated storytelling to present legacy estates to the right audience.
Private opportunities sourced through trusted networks before they ever reach the open market.
International capital networks and AIP-aligned advisory for qualified buyers worldwide.
Set on the Matakana Coast, Sculptureum is a rare union of the Oak Hill Vineyard, sculpture gardens, gallery and hospitality — a landmark estate held for its enduring character rather than its address. It is the kind of legacy property I am engaged to advise on, present and place with absolute discretion.
Sculptureum sits at the centre of the Matakana Coast — minutes from the village, the beaches at Omaha, the marina at Sandspit, and the links at Te Ärai. It is the rare address that is both genuinely private and genuinely connected.

My complete portfolio — current listings, recent sales and upcoming campaigns — is published on my New Zealand Sotheby's International Realty profile. Off-market and pre-launch estates are shared privately on request.

A legacy property deserves more than a listing. It deserves global reach, considered storytelling and an advisor who treats the sale as a campaign — not a transaction. That is the standard I hold, whether I'm advising a vendor or working with a buyer.
Begin the Conversation →Selling a legacy estate is an act of stewardship. I advise on timing, positioning and presentation, then bring considered marketing and the global reach of Sotheby's International Realty to place your property with the right buyer — discreetly, and at its true worth.
I begin with you — your lifestyle, family and long-term vision — before advising where you should buy, not simply what is available. Sometimes the right property is one that isn't yet on the market. Buyer engagements are arranged in conjunction with the listing agent, so your interests are represented independently on any property I have listed.
Whether you are considering selling or searching for something exceptional, every engagement is handled with precision, care and complete discretion — supported by a trusted network of specialists.
Note: I do not act for both the vendor and the buyer on the same transaction. Buyer-side work is conducted in conjunction with a separate agent, and any relevant AML/CFT identity and source-of-funds verification will be requested as part of that process.
Strategy, positioning and elevated marketing to present legacy estates to a qualified national and international audience.
Direct relationships with developers and landowners for off-market sites, subdivisions and future landholdings.
Introductions to architects, master builders and project teams for new builds and considered renovation.
Interior designers and renovation specialists to realise the full potential of a property once acquired or before sale.
Property lawyers, trust and tax consultants, and immigration advisors, including AIP visa pathways.
Schooling guidance, area selection and settlement concierge to make relocation seamless from day one.
A short, considered questionnaire helps me understand your objectives, whether you are selling a legacy estate or searching for one — so our first conversation is a valuable one. It takes only a few minutes.
I work this coastline every week — from Omaha's beachfront to the productive land behind Matakana, the scarce freehold at Te Ārai and the fast-rising Mangawhai market. Below is how the corridor fits together. For anything specific — a street, a price bracket, a particular block — just ask.
Auckland's premier beach settlement — effectively two markets in one suburb, split between the established south end and the architectural north.
Village, vineyards and lifestyle land. The market divides between village edge, Point Wells, Takatu and the productive blocks beyond.
The scarcest coast in the upper North Island — Tara Iti, Te Ārai Links, and a very small pool of freehold land around a world-ranked golf coast.
The Northland corridor's fastest-rising coastal market. Heads, village and surf beaches — flat freehold with usable land and beach proximity.
Considering a move, a purchase or a sale along this coast?
New Zealand's Active Investor Plus visa — often called the “Golden Visa” — now allows qualifying investor-visa holders to apply to own or build one residential property valued above NZ$5 million, subject to consent under the Overseas Investment Act. Eligibility is property-specific and assessed case-by-case by LINZ. I advise both buyers and vendors to navigate this with precision and confidence.
Property Advisor
More than a decade of hands-on renovation, development and complex rebuild projects gives me a grounded understanding of construction integrity, land performance, and the nuances that materially affect value — whether buying or selling.
My career spans decades with internationally recognised luxury brands and global organisations. I bring that experience into property advisory through strategic positioning, considered marketing and elevated storytelling — with a specialist focus on legacy estates.
