Lifestyle Development 2 was completed in 2018, subdivided into five lots, and built lifestyle residential homes, which were sold, except for the 178 Batty Road property.

It takes around 38 minutes to get to Auckland CBD in normal traffic, with Hamilton being approximately an hour's drive away. The property features a well-sized home, a workshop, and a well-established mandarin orchard, ideal for hobby farming.
