At Marsden plant icon we’re building more than houses.

Marsden is a new neighbourhood that emphasises a lifestyle of connection; where community, people, and nature thrive. Our vision is simple, to build a place that feels like home, where people connect and live their lives at a more balanced pace. Each home at Marsden has a unique design, designed by local architects, and built by local builders. Marsden exclusively supports the local communities of Northland.

The Masterplan

A long-awaited place to emerge, set against the backdrop of the Bream Bay coastline, Marsden is made for those wanting true respite from the city. Located just a 2.5 hour drive from Auckland CBD, 25 minutes from Whangārei, and 9 minutes from Northport. With schools, supermarkets, a medical centre, boutique shopping, local eateries, green parks, coastal hikes, and the surf on your doorstep; Marsden is set to be a thriving integrated community living a balanced un-city lifestyle.

Neighbourhood

Home is more than houses. It’s all the stuff that fits around them. Like trees worth climbing. Or that fresh cut grass smell after you borrow your neighbour’s lawn mower. And ducking down to the beach after school or on your lunch break.

At Marsden, we’re building more than houses. We’re building a place that will feel like home. A walkable community, where people can settle in, get everything they need within walking distance, and truly enjoy life. The city’s not far if you need it, but here, you’ll be able to get on with easy, un-city living.

This is the place

Architecturally-designed houses, a beautifully landscaped neighbourhood, bike tracks, lakes, fruit trees on the verge, boutique shopping and eateries, local schools, parks, and playgrounds; it’s the true essence of what it means to live up North. And with the coast brimming at your doorstep, Marsden will quickly become one of the North Island’s most desired places to live and visit.

Location

This is a pretty special slice of Aotearoa. Highway One’s right there. The beach is just up the road, and Mt Manaia offers the perfect backdrop to throwing a line out and reeling in dinner. All the things you need day to day — the supermarket, medical centre, good schools and a great cup of coffee — it’s all here too. And there’s even more — find established communities in Ruakākā, Marsden Point and One Tree Point’s developments nearby.
