Hawkes Bay, Sections for Sale

Coming home to Parkhill Farm is a magical thing to experience. This stunning coastal property offers some of the finest sections for sale in New Zealand.

 

Crossing rivers, passing orchards, slipping through vineyards you start to gently rise from sea level and Hawkes Bay seems to unfold around you. The beautiful Ruahine ranges and even Mt Ruapehu appear on one horizon while the sparkling milky blue of the ocean of Hawke Bay stretches to another.

 

Linking the two are the gently rolling hills of Parkhill Farm just ahead. No big signs nor giant iron gates nor Greek columns nor stone arches shout that you are home. Instead a simple cattlestop flanked by solid hardwood rails take you quietly but very appropriately on to Home Road.

 

As you wind up towards home there are vines to your left and beautiful Hawkes Bay rolling farmland to your right. For this is not only home, it is also a working vineyard and a working farm. Perhaps thankfully, not yours to work, but certainly yours to enjoy, to observe and to gently walk over.

 

Buildings are minimal and houses are few and far between. And those that are here have an empathy with their environment and with each other created through colour, height, materials and plantings. None of them look at each other, instead they look to the North the East and the West to the astounding beauty and ever changing palette of Wine Country.

 

Parkhill Farm is difficult to categorise. It is not a gated community or another subdivision. It is not simply a farm or a vineyard either. While some of its neighbours are a small country primary school and local berry and citrus growers with their roadside honesty boxes, others are a world famous golf course, luxury lodges, some of New Zealand’s most awarded vineyards and associated fine restaurants.

 

Parkhill Farm feels quietly comfortable with its own beauty and its own surroundings. It has been developed carefully and slowly by people who know this land and live here too. Perhaps it is just best to say Parkhill Farm is for people who like things done well but done simply and if that sounds like you, perhaps it’s time you too took a little drive up Home Road.
