Rushbrooke Estate presents a truly exceptional opportunity to secure one of the district’s most picturesque lifestyle properties. Set across 33.9 hectares (approx.) of fertile, immaculately maintained land, this remarkable estate blends timeless character, privacy, and rural productivity in a setting of outstanding natural beauty.

A sweeping driveway through established native bush creates an unforgettable arrival, opening to beautifully manicured grounds that frame the fully renovated character villa. The three-bedroom home retains the elegance and charm of its era while offering the comfort of modern living, with spacious interiors, a stylish kitchen and bathroom, and a dedicated office that could easily serve as a fourth bedroom.

Sun-filled living spaces flow effortlessly to outdoor entertaining areas, creating the perfect environment to relax, host guests, and enjoy the tranquility of the surrounding landscape.

A separate one-bedroom cabin adds further versatility, providing ideal accommodation for guests, extended family, or a peaceful work-from-home retreat.

One of the estate’s distinctive features is the beautifully converted rustic woolshed. Rich in character and atmosphere, this unique space offers exciting possibilities for events, functions, creative ventures, or simply a remarkable gathering place.

The land itself is equally impressive. Comprising 33.9 hectares (approx.) of highly fertile, well-managed country, the property has been thoughtfully subdivided and maintained to an exceptional standard, offering excellent grazing or cropping potential.

Perfectly positioned, Rushbrooke Estate enjoys the best of both worlds — peaceful rural seclusion while remaining highly accessible. The property is located less than an hour from Wellington and just five minutes from Otaki, providing convenient access to shops, cafés, schools, and the Kapiti Coast’s renowned beaches.

Adding further appeal, the estate is offered with flexible purchasing options. Held across three titles, buyers have the opportunity to secure either the main 22.04-hectare (approx.) block or the entire 33.9-hectare (approx.) holding.

Properties of this calibre are rarely available. Combining elegance, versatility, and productive land, Rushbrooke Estate represents a truly special rural offering.
