Luxury in Leigh


A resource consent for a luxury lodge on the promontory at Cape Rodney, near Leigh, has been lodged with Auckland Council.

The applicant is Panetiki Ltd, which is 100 per cent owned by multimillionaires, Carmel and Hugh Fisher.

The Fishers bought the nine-hectare property in 2019 for a reported $12 million.

The site plans propose three accommodation buildings, tennis court, swimming pools and manager’s accommodation.

The application also shows an amendment removing the controversial helipad, which was vehemently opposed by residents of Leigh last year.

Submissions close on March 21.
