Your Waterfront Escape Awaits
positioned directly on the shoreline at the sought-after manganese point, this exceptional waterfront residence offers the rare privilege of owning right to the sand. concrete steps lead from the home straight onto the beach, while a private concrete boat ramp allows you to launch directly from your front yard—an extraordinary convenience few properties can claim.
rebuilt in 2003 with impeccable taste and a timeless palette of natural tones, the home spans approximately 320 sq m (excluding decks, boat shed / parking area and the 32 sq m covered walkway), with every design choice focused on the ever-changing harbour outlook.
the lower level is both generous and versatile, featuring two double bedrooms - one opening directly outdoors and the other framed by windows that capture the water views. a fully tiled family bathroom services this level, alongside a double internal-access garage, an additional smaller garage ideal for a dinghy or golf cart, and dedicated boat-shed parking. the separation of the two lower-level bedrooms from the master suite above also lends itself beautifully to guest accommodation or a boutique airbnb-style setup, offering privacy and independence for visitors. to the rear, a covered walkway provides a tranquil setting overlooking mature gardens and established trees.
upstairs, the home truly comes into its own. the open-plan living, dining and kitchen area is wrapped in floor-to-ceiling glass, drawing the harbour views deep into the interior. a striking stone fireplace anchors the living space, while the chef’s kitchen is perfectly appointed for entertaining. the master suite is also located on this level, complete with ensuite and seamless indoor-outdoor flow onto the deck. the home also features curved windows that enhance both the architectural interest and the natural light, framing stunning coastal vistas.
a mezzanine level above is currently configured as an office, offering a spectacular elevated outlook—an inspiring space for work or quiet contemplation.
set on whangārei harbour, the property enjoys sheltered coastal conditions and a beautiful, accessible coastline, ideal for swimming, paddle-boarding, water-skiing or fishing, all while being approximately 15 minutes drive to whangarei central.
beautifully presented and impeccably maintained, this is a home that functions equally well as a luxurious holiday retreat or a forever waterfront residence - where the water is always the centrepiece of daily life.
