General information

With beautiful rolling green land, character buildings, a boulevard of mature palm trees, harbour views and existing bush, Hobsonville Point was always going to be an extraordinary development. Still, we've taken pains to make sure that every street is 'the best street in town'. It's important to us that new residents have plenty of choice as to the size, plan, look and price of their home.

Where we’ve come from

Before European settlement the land was covered in kauri forest. The tidal flats on the southern and eastern coast were teeming with birds and seafood, a source of delicious kai for local iwi. They knew the Point and surrounds as ‘Onekiritea’ after the clay soil found in the area, which they used for its pigment and as a natural soap. In 1853 around a thousand acres was bought by the Crown and cut into four blocks, part of which was eventually names ‘Hobsonville’ after Captain William Hobson, New Zealand’s first governor. The air force established its home on the Point in 1929 and the land became dotted with barracks, hangars and houses. Many of the early houses and buildings will remain and be reused to preserve Hobsonville Point’s character and provide a link to the communities the Point has been home to in the past. Our first new residents have already moved in.
