A cleared residential landholding in a well-connected and populous city-fringe suburb presents an exceptional opportunity for developers to secure scale and future potential in a market where development fundamentals have improved, Bayleys brokers say.

Comprising 4,621sqm (more or less) of land held in a single title, the property occupies a gently sloping site with wide street frontage, and favourable Residential – Mixed Housing Suburban zoning – enabling a range of medium-density residential outcomes.

Bayleys Development Land Sales director Gerald Rundle is marketing the substantial bare land site at 69 Mulgan Street in New Windsor for sale by tender, closing at 4:00 pm on Wednesday, 7th August 2025 (will not be sold prior), alongside colleague Mike Adams.

“This is one of the largest undeveloped land parcels in the area and presents a rare opening for developers to deliver housing in a proven suburb with strong growth projections,” Rundle says.

“Located on a prominent residential thoroughfare between New Windsor Road and Whitney Road, the site offers excellent access to arterial routes and public transport, with proximity to multiple schooling options, retail hubs, and employment centres across West and Central Auckland.

Rundle says the site enjoys a pleasant elevation and aspect, with views over the surrounding neighbourhood toward the Waitakere Ranges. “With all previous dwellings cleared and no immediate demolition requirements, it’s ready for planning and development activity to commence.”

Zoning categorisation permits a mix of detached, duplex, and terrace-style homes up to two storeys in height, subject to standard planning controls.

Bayleys Auckland Metro director Mike Adams suggests that several comparable projects have been successfully completed in the wider area, demonstrating the ongoing appeal of well-located, medium-density living.

“Developer interest is re-emerging as build costs stabilise and the residential sales market shifts back into gear. Project landholdings that are ready to go, with favourable zoning provisions and access to amenities, are best positioned to lead the next wave of infill housing delivery.

“New Windsor is riding the ‘ripple effect’ of growth, emanating from surrounding hotspots Avondale, New Lynn, and Mount Roskill, where affordable housing developments, improved community infrastructure, and transport connections have amplified regional appeal.

“Improved access to the CBD via the City Rail Link – New Zealand’s largest ever infrastructure project – and key arterial routes, including the Southern Motorway and frequent bus services, position the area for sustained residential demand and development momentum.”

Adams says there is a consistently healthy appetite for affordable, well-designed housing in established suburbs with good access to education, employment and transport. “This landholding provides that and more, with flexibility, scale and excellent street profile.”

The property is located within walking distance of New Windsor School, with Blockhouse Bay Intermediate and Lynfield College also nearby.

Major amenities, including Westfield St Luke's, Pak’nSave supermarket, and the Avondale Town Centre upgrade, are all within a short drive.

“Auckland’s population is projected to grow significantly over the next two decades, and this Mulgan Street property, with favourable topography, zoning, and central positioning, provides an opportunity to secure a prime foothold in a well-connected growth corridor.”
