The 514 acre property at Kapowai Bay/Woodmans Bay is located in the southeastern quarter of of the large off-shore island, D’Urville Island, with an area of approximately 60 square miles, it is the eighth-largest island of New Zealand. D’Urville lies very close to the mainland, separated by the narrow 650 yard wide and dangerous French Pass, known to Maori as Te Aumiti, through which water passes at up to eight knots (8.7 mph) at each tide. Kapowai Bay is the main entry point to the island, the journey by boat from the mainland settlement of Elmslie Bay, near French Pass across Admiralty Bay is only 1.5 miles and takes just minutes. D’Urville is located at the northwestern extreme of the Marlborough Sounds, which lie on the northern coast of New Zealand’s South Island. It is one of the few privately owned islands in the Marlborough Sounds as most are held by the Crown as reserve and park land. Within the coastal portion of the land encompassing Kapowai Bay & Woodmans Bay, there are a number of sites that have been surveyed for use as house sites and one prime 1 acre (3998 sq/m), headland site (Lot 5) that has great potential for a private retreat or luxury accommodation. There is opportunity to develop the land’s tourism potential or provide several exclusive residential retreats.
