EX DRIVING RANGE/CAFE PLUS HOUSE

An opportunity to breathe new life into a well-known local destination, 34 Macadamia Lane, Waipapa offers a substantial landholding with existing commercial infrastructure and scope to establish a new hospitality or recreational venture.

Located approximately 10 minutes north of Kerikeri, the café premises was previously home to La Patisserie Café, and the adjoining golf driving range has previously attracted both locals and visitors to this property. While the café and driving range operations are currently closed, the existing facilities provide and excellent starting point for buyers looking to reinstate the former types of businesses or introduce a fresh concept.

The café premises features indoor and outdoor dining areas, a fully equipped commercial kitchen, established gardens and a children’s playground. This setting offers potential for a café, hospitality venue or family-focused destination, with the opportunity to build on the property’s previous use and explore complementary activities. Adding further versatility is the former driving range, offering potential for reinstatement or redevelopment, subject to any necessary consents. With more than 16 acres to work with, the property also includes grazing paddocks and an established circular horse arena, opening the door to a range of possibilities.

A modern 4-Bedroom, 2-Bedroom home is positioned privately at one end of the property, separate from the commercial areas. This provides the option to live onsite while operating a business, accommodate staff, or simply enjoy the lifestyle benefits of a substantial landholding close to Kerikeri.

KEY FEATURES: • Freehold land area: 66,613m² • Café premises with a fully equipped commercial kitchen • Former golf driving range with potential for reinstatement or an alternative recreation use • 4-Bedroom, 2-Bathroom home positioned separately from the commercial facilities • Grazing paddocks and an established circular horse arena

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 and its own last sale 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.

Unclaimed
Nobody is tracking this property yet

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.

Free. Takes about a minute.

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.

What claiming gets you
1One live recordCouncil valuation, title details and registered interests, kept current rather than gathered again every time you need them.
2Your lending in the pictureAdd what you owe, or connect the bank, and the equity and LVR stop being a calculation you redo by hand.
3Providers compete for itPut the mortgage, the insurance and the power out to people who want the business — on your terms, when you ask.
4Everything else you ownOne search finds other titles in your name and in companies you are a director of.

Zoning and hazards

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.
