A premium residential estate in Maunu, Whangarei

Austin Estate - the distinctive address for those seeking an idyllic retreat…
right at home.

Austin Estate caters for professional people and their families who wish to build within a secure, gated community with a prestigious address.


Austin Estate was originally one of Whangarei’s market orchards and an abundant producer of avocados and kiwifruit for over 30 years. Owners Debra and Gary Ryan purchased the Austin Road property from Bob and Anne Herman and have been working on the development of this new subdivision for over 18 months. The vision was to create a secure, residential estate that exudes culture and style. It is evident this is being achieved when you walk around the estate and take in the seclusion of the grounds that are set nestled amongst a border of shelterbelts.

While only 7 kilometres from Whangarei’s city centre, the estate has a very rural presence about it with it’s stonewalls and mature trees that border the subdivision. You can enjoy the country lifestyle without the long travelling time. Austin Estate’s great location is ideal for families, with Maunu Primary School close by on the corner of S.H.14 and Austin Road, along with Pompallier College also right next door. Both schools are set in a rural environment and well known as being excellent schools.

Austin Estate gives its residents the room to breathe as the sections are of generous proportions. However, as they are low maintenance and predominantly flat they are also suited to people with busy lifestyles who prefer not to spend their free time on maintenance. The smallest section is 2000m² and the largest is 2693m².

The rich, fertile volcanic soil provides an excellent foundation for keen garden enthusiasts - also aided by the shelterbelt borders which provide protection.
