The world’s most enduring private estates are built upon a combination of vision, stewardship, and place. Sculptureum offers the opportunity to acquire all three within one of New Zealand’s most desirable lifestyle destinations.

Home to one of New Zealand’s most celebrated private art collections, an established hospitality operation, a boutique vineyard, and considerable scope for future growth, Sculptureum is an estate unlike any other in the country. Positioned on the Matakana Coast, less than one hour from Auckland, Sculptureum spans 10.19 hectares across two freehold titles. The estate is located approximately 3 kilometres from Matakana Village and its popular farmers’ market, and approximately 5 kilometres from Omaha Beach.

Over the past decade, Sculptureum has become a destination of genuine national and international standing. More than 400,000 guests have experienced its galleries, sculpture gardens, vineyard, and acclaimed Rothko Restaurant, establishing a brand and visitor experience recognised throughout New Zealand and increasingly abroad.

Included within the opportunity is the collection that forms the foundation of Sculptureum, creating a rare combination of cultural significance, established commercial activity, and strategic landholding within a single holding. Today, the estate operates with established hospitality infrastructure and a proven track record of attracting both domestic and international audiences.

Thoughtfully designed gardens, immersive landscapes, and curated experiences have transformed the estate into a place of both beauty and purpose. Woven throughout the property, they create an environment that inspires guests and contributes to the estate’s enduring appeal.

The vineyard title presents a rare opportunity to expand upon an already established destination. With elevated views towards Great Barrier Island and a significant landholding within one of New Zealand’s most desirable lifestyle regions, it provides a compelling canvas for accommodation, hospitality, residential, cultural, or philanthropic initiatives.

The primary title also retains capacity for the continued enhancement of the visitor experience, hospitality offering, and gardens.

Sculptureum sits at the centre of a region attracting increasing attention from entrepreneurs, private investors, family offices, and globally connected capital.

The Matakana Coast continues to strengthen its position as one of the Southern Hemisphere’s premier lifestyle and leisure destinations, supported by internationally acclaimed golf experiences at Te Arai Links and Tara Iti, and a growing collection of luxury hospitality and tourism investments.

Accessible by road or helicopter, and with the nearby Sandspit Marina providing access to the wider Hauraki Gulf, the estate enjoys exceptional connectivity by land, sea, and air.

Multiple pathways exist, enabling future ownership to shape an outcome aligned with their ambitions, whether commercial, cultural, philanthropic, or lifestyle-led.

Sculptureum represents a rare opportunity to acquire and build upon one of New Zealand’s most distinctive estates.
