Over the years, the building has served multiple purposes, including a family residence, a rest home, and emergency accommodation (additional historical details to be confirmed). With Whangarei evolving into a vibrant, fast-growing city, this redevelopment project aligns with the increasing demand for high-quality, well-maintained housing options tailored to professionals.

Leading the project, Hainesco, is undertaking a full-scale renovation, including structural reinforcements and a complete interior redesign. The final development will feature 18 self-contained rooms, each designed with comfort and functionality in mind, ensuring residents have a secure and well-appointed home.

We are committed to creating secure, healthy homes for working professionals,” says the team at Hainesco.  “This project is a key step in addressing housing needs in Whangarei, and we’re excited to transform this historic site into a modern, welcoming living space

Propertyscouts Whangarei will manage the facility, bringing extensive local expertise to ensure smooth operations. The boarding house will also have a designated live-in manager to oversee daily operations, assist tenants, and maintain a harmonious living environment.

We’re thrilled to be part of such an important project for Whangarei,” says Didi Skinner, owner of Propertyscouts Whangarei. “Whangarei is transitioning from a quiet holiday town into a thriving city with a strong professional workforce. As more doctors, specialists, and other professionals choose to live and work here, the demand for high-spec, stylish accommodation is growing. The Wolfe Collective meets this need, offering premium living spaces in a prime location

Scheduled for completion by Winter 2025, The Wolfe Collective will provide tenants with safe, comfortable, and well-managed housing, contributing positively to their work-life balance. The property will meet all compliance, safety, and health standards, ensuring a high standard of living for its residents.

This development is a welcome addition to Whangarei’s rental landscape and is expected to play a vital role in supporting local professionals.
