Space, serenity & opportunity on Pearson Road

Offered to the market for the first time in nearly 20 years, this exceptional 10,194sqm (more or less) lifestyle section on sought-after Pearson Road presents a rare opportunity to secure a special piece of Whitford — with a vendor who is open to considering offers.

Perfectly positioned in the heart of Whitford, this expansive site combines peaceful rural living with everyday convenience. A generous, well-positioned building platform invites you to design and create your ideal home — whether a contemporary retreat, architectural statement, or timeless family haven.

Adding to its unique appeal is part ownership of a neighbouring 105,000sqm (more or less) native bush reserve — a protected sanctuary alive with birdsong, where tui and kererū flourish and your outlook remains beautifully green and uninterrupted.

Despite the tranquillity, you're wonderfully connected: • Moments to local golf and tennis clubs • Close to Whitford Village cafés, eateries and boutique retail • Scenic pony and bike trails along the water's edge • Minutes to Botany Town Centre, Meadowlands and Howick Village • Easy access to Beachlands for boating or CBD ferry commute • Popular Clevedon and Beachlands markets nearby

Lifestyle sections of this scale and setting are increasingly hard to find. Take the time to explore what's on offer and consider the possibilities — this is a property that truly rewards vision.

Your Whitford dream begins here.

Our estimate$1,440,000

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.

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

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.
