"Their marketing strategy and due diligence on the property were exceptional. The level of preparation, research, and attention to detail gave us real confidence that the home was being positioned in the best possible way in the market. Throughout the process they were professional, steady, and solution-focused. Real estate transactions can be complex, but we always felt well-advised and fully informed."
"Their communication was clear, and they worked hard to navigate the process thoughtfully and carefully. In the end, we were pleased with the outcome and appreciated the thoroughness and commitment they brought to the sale. I would recommend them to anyone looking for an experienced team who take their responsibilities seriously and approach the job with care and diligence."

First Thing's First
As Founder and Managing Director of Oliver Road, I have written, designed and produced this publication. Neither ChatGPT nor any marketing firm had a part to play, which reflects how we operate our agency - hands on, in full control, and able to adapt and adjust the approach as required to produce the best outcome for you as the owner of a unique, high-value property in the Queenstown-Lakes District.
4 Healecote Lane represents a particularly compelling opportunity in the Lower Shotover market. This established home has been thoughtfully extended and refined over the years, combining the solidity of established construction with contemporary additions and systems. The property's elevated setting affords exceptional 360-degree mountain and river views, whilst remaining entirely private and set back from the road. With 5,483 m² of land, outstanding natural landscaping, and a dwelling configured with both family living and rental accommodation potential, this property offers flexibility alongside genuine luxury. I look forward to presenting a comprehensive appraisal and tailored marketing strategy for this property.
Yours exclusively,
Cam Winter
Founder & Managing Director
Oliver Road | Luxury Real Estate
01 | Introduction
Representing a select few properties at the top end of the market, we are committed to delivering a world-class service; one that includes a comprehensive appraisal of value & market conditions, recommended pre-market improvements, commercial-grade photography and videography, broad-reaching exposure across national and international markets, and expert handling of buyer enquiry and negotiation.
"In such a small market segment, the value of your luxury property is heavily influenced by prices achieved for others across the basin."
As agents, our responsibility to deliver exceptional outcomes therefore extends beyond our current clients to include all owners of high-value homes in the area.
02 | The Property
4 Healecote Lane is located in the highly sought-after Lower Shotover area, one of the basin's most exclusive residential pockets. The property occupies 5,483 m² of land zoned Rural Lifestyle under the Queenstown Lakes District Plan, providing the privacy and seclusion expected in this enclave whilst maintaining easy access to Queenstown's amenities. The land comprises gently rolling native-planted landscape with direct aspect towards the Shotover River and surrounding mountains.
The property has undergone significant development and enhancement. An extension (approved under Building Consent BC160298) added approximately 200 m² of contemporary accommodation in 2016-2018, increasing the total dwelling footprint to around 504 m². This extension was architect-designed, professionally built, and code-compliant, substantially expanding the property's flexibility and market appeal. The combination of established construction and modern additions, paired with the setting's commanding views and mature landscape, creates a property of genuine distinction in the Lower Shotover market.

03 | The Dwelling
The dwelling at 4 Healecote Lane comprises an original dwelling (approximately 304 m²) constructed circa 2003-2005, substantially extended in 2016-2018 with an architect-designed addition of approximately 200 m², bringing the total floor area to approximately 504 m². The property is configured as a 4-bedroom, single-level home with dual lounge spaces, two kitchens, office/study, laundry, and double garage. The original developer was David Broomfield. The extension was designed by Chris Prebble Architects Ltd (Christchurch) and built by Cook Brothers Construction, with structural engineering by Hadley Consultants Ltd. This integrated design creates a home suited to both full-time family occupation and revenue-generating rental use.

The dwelling is configured as a single-level home, which maximises accessible living and reduces circulation space. Extensive glazing throughout captures the property's commanding 360-degree mountain and river views. The design incorporates aluminium "Gravel" finish joinery with electric opening mechanisms on high-level windows, facilitating natural ventilation and passive solar gain. The floor comprises Ecoply 19mm Longspan throughout, providing durability and acoustic comfort. A floor heating system operates during off-peak hours, ensuring efficiency whilst maintaining year-round comfort.
The original dwelling featured Hardibord cladding, which was replaced with a premium specification including rusticated weatherboards, schist veneer, and Europanel fibre cement (dark grey) finishes. This remediation (costing approximately $100,000) provides a durable and visually striking exterior. The roof comprises dark grey butynol with colour steel flashings. A solar array has been installed, substantially reducing power costs from approximately $2,000 per quarter to approximately $400 per quarter.

05 | Location & Zoning
Lower Shotover is one of the basin's most exclusive and sought-after residential locations. The area combines privacy and rural character with proximity to Queenstown's amenities and services. Properties in this enclave are distinguished by their landscape setting, seclusion, and commanding views across the Shotover River valley towards the surrounding mountains. The area attracts families, executives, and investors seeking both primary residence and revenue-generating opportunities.
4 Healecote Lane sits elevated on the western side of the valley, directly facing the Shotover River and the landscape beyond. The property enjoys 360-degree mountain views, with particularly dramatic winter alpine vistas. Morning river fog is common, creating picturesque scenes as the day progresses. The lower portion of the property descends to council land (landscaped), which provides scenic separation and privacy. Mature native plantings include flax (which attracts tui and other native birds), native grasses, and established trees. A professional landscape gardener (Jane) provides ongoing maintenance, ensuring the property's setting remains in pristine condition. There is no road noise; the property offers genuine tranquility within easy reach of central Queenstown.

07 | Valuation
The valuation approach employed for 4 Healecote Lane is the sales comparison method, supported by reference to recent arm's length transactions of comparable properties in the Queenstown Lakes market. The property's unique characteristics, including its elevated setting, exceptional views, land area, and dual-use configuration, are assessed against identified comparable sales. Market conditions as at March 2026 are considered, including sales trends, days on market, and vendor motivation. The property's standing in the luxury segment and the tight supply of comparable land areas in preferred locations are material considerations in the valuation assessment.
The following comparable sales represent recent arm's length transactions of properties in the Queenstown Lakes luxury segment, all completed in 2025-2026. These transactions provide evidence of market value for properties with similar characteristics to 4 Healecote Lane.

08 | By the Numbers
Based on comparative sales analysis of seven recent arm's length transactions in the Queenstown Lakes luxury segment, market conditions as at March 2026, and assessment of 4 Healecote Lane's distinctive characteristics, the property's indicative value range has been established as follows. The lower estimate reflects conservative positioning relative to comparable sales of smaller properties in established luxury locations. The mid-range estimate recognises the property's considerable advantages: exceptional land area, commanding views, privacy, and architectural quality. The upper estimate acknowledges the scarcity of comparable properties with this combination of characteristics in Lower Shotover. Prospective purchasers should obtain their own registered valuation for financing or investment decision-making.
This is an indicative assessment only and is not a formal registered valuation. Market conditions may change. A registered valuation should be obtained for any financing or investment decision.
