This property use to be a school for boys and a number of them like myself suffered major abuse but wish to have it as a place of healing.

ADVERT of Campbell Park Estate For Sale
Campbell Park Estate – a historic masterpiece in need of restoration.
For the discerning buyer with a passion for history and restoration, Campbell Park Estate offers an extraordinary opportunity to bring new life to one of New Zealand’s most iconic historic properties. Located in the heart of the stunning Waitaki Valley, this estate is home to the oldest homestead of its kind in New Zealand, a stunning Victorian Gothic-style residence designed in 1876 by the renowned Dunedin architectural firm Mason and Wales. This impressive building was once the heart of the vast Otekaieke Station, but now awaits a new owner with a vision to restore it to its former glory.
A historic landmark in need of restoration.
The main homestead, built in 1876 for Robert Campbell, is a striking and rare example of Victorian Gothic architecture. With its turrets, stonework, and grand design, the homestead has stood as the central feature of the estate for over 140 years. The property, which originally played a central role in the region’s early farming industry, is steeped in history, but time has taken its toll, and the estate is now in need of substantial restoration work to return it to its former grandeur.
Alongside the homestead, the estate also contains several historic buildings that tell the story of its rich past including:
• Stables from the late 1800s
The funds will be used to purchase the property and repair the property and develop it into a place of healing.
NEED TO RAISE OVER $5,000,000 TO BUY THE PROPERTY 7 December 2024
This property needs to belong to survivors and victims of Child Abuse who were at Campbell Park School that was sold by the New Zealand Government in 1987 to an American businessman and then he sold it to a Chinese businessman who just land bank and did nothing to the property.
We need New Zealand people to own this property. Foreigners who have owned it have damaged the historical buildings by not caring for them.
