    Huia

    Huia is a western coastal settlement in West Auckland, New Zealand and forms part of the Waitākere Ranges Regional Park. The majority of houses in Huia are located along Huia Road, which arcs around Huia Bay and heads west towards Little Huia.

    Construction on the Upper Huia Dam began in 1924, leading to wider development in the area as houses were constructed for workers' families. Material for the dam was brought by barge to Huia, and then by tramway to the dam site. The dam was completed in 1929, leading to an exodus of families who worked on the dam leaving the area. The tramway remained operational until the 1960s. After the construction of the dam, the area became popular with holidaymakers and retirees. As the Huia valley began to reforest, this fuelled a movement to develop the ranges as a regional park. The Centennial Memorial Park, a portion of which would later become the modern Waitākere Ranges, opened in 1940.

    By the 1960s, a community of artists and poets had developed at Huia. In 1971, the Lower Huia Dam was constructed adjacent to the township.

    A Coastal Retreat with Timeless Appeal

    Tucked where the Manukau Harbour laps at Huia’s quiet shores and rolling green hills climb to the northern sky, this is where tranquillity and daily life coexist.
    Welcome to 15 Huia Dam Road – a character-filled, country home with a comfy cottage feel just footsteps from the beach.

    Lovingly maintained, this home blends the warmth and tradition with practical, modern living. The open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area is ideal for family life and entertaining, with sliding doors that open to a sun-drenched deck overlooking farmland and the sea. Sunset views here are unforgettable.

    Upstairs, sunny bedrooms with loft-style ceilings invite restful nights. Two open onto a private balcony with expansive vistas – the perfect morning coffee spot. A dedicated study area supports remote work, while a separate laundry, guest WC, spacious carport, and additional garage space add everyday ease.

    Outside, native birdsong and lush bush surround a peaceful garden – ideal for kids, pets, or simply enjoying the quiet. Yet just beyond the gate, outdoor adventures abound: hike the Hillary Tracks, swim at Cornwallis or Kaitarakihi, launch the boat at Little Huia, or stroll to Alfred’s Huia Store for legendary fish and chips. Even the family dog has its own beach at Kakamatua.

    15 Huia Dam Road offers more than a home – it’s a lifestyle rich with connection, nature, and community, all not far from Auckland’s CBD. This is where work-life balance finds its home.
