A record-breaking property sale in Wanaka’s sought-after Kirimoko Park has set a new benchmark, with 4 Takahe Lane selling under the hammer for $2,660,000 at auction on Tuesday, 11 February. This sale marks the highest price achieved in the neighbourhood to date.

The stunning property was marketed through a four-week auction campaign by LJ Hooker Wanaka salesperson Lisinda Rickman. Two active bidders competed for the home on auction day, resulting in the record-setting sale price.

The previous record for Kirimoko Park was set in September 2023 when a property sold for $2.4 million, highlighting the continued growth in the local property market.

Rickman said the result reflected the strong demand for high-quality homes in Wanaka.

“We saw significant interest throughout the campaign, with buyers drawn to the home’s premium location, stunning design, and high-end finishes. This sale confirms the strength of the Wanaka market and the ongoing appeal of properties in Kirimoko Park.”

She added that the competitive bidding demonstrated both buyer confidence and the effectiveness of the auction process.

“The market is responding well to well-presented and strategically marketed properties. This sale is a great example of how an auction campaign can generate strong competition and deliver outstanding results for sellers,” Rickman said.

With demand for premium homes in Wanaka continuing to rise, the sale of 4 Takahe Lane sets a strong precedent for future transactions in the area.
