Entry-Level Equestrian & Lifestyle Living

• Two-bedroom Initial Home for family or supplementary income
• Equestrian ready with five acres, arena and five covered yards
• Prime Dairy Flat location close to Silverdale, Albany and motorway access
If you're looking for a practical lifestyle property with room for the family, horses and other animals, 438 Blackbridge Road has plenty to offer.
The two-storey family home sits at the heart of the property, with a north-facing lounge flowing out to the deck overlooking the arena. It's a great spot to sit back, entertain or watch the horses being ridden.
The fully self-contained two-bedroom Initial Home has its own carport, offering independence for extended family, multigenerational living or the potential to supplement your income. A separate teenage retreat provides another useful and flexible space.
Outside is where the property really stands out. Set across approximately five acres, there's room for horses, a few cattle or other lifestyle animals, while still being a practical amount of land to look after.
For equestrian buyers, much of the hard work is already done. A 36m x 20m arena, five covered yards, Duncan electric fencing and purpose-built paddocks provide a great setup for having your horses at home and an ideal entry into equestrian property ownership.
The large shed provides plenty of room for vehicles, storage, hobbies or all the lifestyle toys.
Dairy Flat keeps you well connected, with Silverdale, Albany and motorway access all within easy reach, while still enjoying the space and freedom of country living.
With their competitive ambitions growing and the horse numbers following suit, the owners are ready for their next move, creating an opportunity for someone new to call it home.

How we worked this out
| Council valuation, May 2024 | $1,775,000 |
|---|---|
| Market movement in Auckland since the council valuation | −4.8% |
| Apartments and houses in Auckland | −1.3% |
| How Dairy Flat sells against council values | −2.7% |
| Homes of this age in Dairy Flat | −2.0% |
| Homes in this price range | −0.3% |
| Land as a share of the value | +0.6% |
| Our estimate | $1,590,000 |
We start from the council's rating valuation, move it by how sales in the area have moved since against their own council values, then by how properties like this one, nearby sales have done against the same arithmetic. Each step is an average of real sales. Tested every month against sales we had not seen: half land within about 6% of our estimate, and about 8 in 10 within the range. This is an automated estimate, not a registered valuation.

Building consents
We hold no building consents for this property yet. The council may hold records we have not seen.
If it is yours, claiming it puts the council record, the title and what it costs you to hold in one place — and lets you put your lending, insurance and power out to people who compete for them.
We check your name against the registered owner on the title before a claim is accepted. Nothing on this page changes for anyone else, and no provider is contacted until you ask.
Zoning and hazards
What the council's published maps say about this land. A map is a model of a storm, not a record of one: a LIM or a flood report says more.

What could you build here?
See whether a granny flat fits beside the house: the Building Act exemption, the national granny flat rules and the zone’s own. Then ask builders to price the shape you pick.
