A historic Waiheke Island estate at 40 Rothschild Tce, Oakura Bay, is for sale, attracting both Hollywood and local interest. The 4.95-hectare property, once a Rothschild family Cold War refuge, features two private islands, 1.7km of coastline, and a boutique vineyard.
Listing agent Caleb Paterson reports that while Hollywood is circling, the "big surprise" has been strong engagement from around 10 local families. The legacy aspect and development potential are major drawcards for this once-in-a-generation opportunity.
Originally developed in the late 1800s, the kauri villa was built by the Dewitt family.

In 1981, John and Eve Bollard restored the villa and planted a two-hectare organic vineyard.
