Legacy Partners Ltd. have
announced the initial real estate
offering at Te Arai, a 1,400-acre,
beach-front property (a 75-minute
drive from Auckland’s central
business district) that serves as
backdrop to the new Tara Iti Golf
Club, slated to open for member
play in October.
Designed by American course architect Tom
Doak, Tara Iti GC was laid out amid the dunes
north of Te Arai Point, a favoured headland
among Northland surfers. Otherwise, this
stretch of beach -- some 11 kilometers in
length, spreading north from a surf break
known as ”The Forestry” -- remains largely
undiscovered, despite its location less than 100
km from the Auckland Harbor Bridge.
Auckland-based Legacy Partners is a boutique
real estate brokerage firm that markets iconic
and exclusive New Zealand property, while at
the same time representing buyers from New
Zealand and overseas. With this real estate
offering, Te Arai is the first Legacy Partners
community to elicit widespread public notice.
Today, the only finished structure at the
Te Arai is the Tara Iti clubhouse, designed
by Auckland-based Cheshire Architects.
According to Legacy partner Michael Pleciak,
the complete build-out plan at Te Arai calls
for just 46 individual home sites across
600 hectares of freehold land. Buyers may
acquire home sites or completed residences
-- all boast access to the community’s 5.5
