CHRISTMAS BY THE BEACH?

40A Sergeant Road, Matakawau – NOW $730,000

Imagine Christmas at the beach, summer barbecues with family and friends, and lazy weekends away from the city. At 40A Sergeant Road, that lifestyle could be yours sooner than you think. With a new asking price of just $730,000 and vendors keen to sell, now is the perfect time to see what this coastal property has to offer.

Set on an elevated 889m² section at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this sunny three-bedroom home offers comfortable living with plenty of scope to add your own touches and value over time.

Open-plan living flows onto a sunny deck, while downstairs, a generous rumpus room and third bedroom provide extra space for family and friends. A fenced garden for children and pets, plus a large tandem garage with plenty of room for the boat and all your beach gear, complete the package.

Sergeant's Beach is just a minute's walk away, perfect for a morning swim, a leisurely stroll or simply relaxing in the sunshine. For boating, kayaking and fishing enthusiasts, the Matakawau all-tide boat ramp is just a short distance away, offering easy access to excellent fishing spots. With the beach so close and the harbour on your doorstep, you can enjoy a slower pace of life, where every day feels a little like being on holiday.

Just 1¼ hours from Auckland, this could be your weekend retreat, permanent home or a place to make wonderful family memories.

The price is $730,000, the vendors are motivated, and Christmas is approaching. What are you waiting for?

Our estimate$695,000

We start from the council's rating valuation, move it by how sales in the area have moved since against their own council values, then by how properties like this one, nearby sales and its own last sale have done against the same arithmetic. Each step is an average of real sales. Tested every month against sales we had not seen: half land within about 6% of our estimate, and about 8 in 10 within the range. This is an automated estimate, not a registered valuation.

Unclaimed
Nobody is tracking this property yet

If it is yours, claiming it puts the council record, the title and what it costs you to hold in one place — and lets you put your lending, insurance and power out to people who compete for them.

Free. Takes about a minute.

We check your name against the registered owner on the title before a claim is accepted. Nothing on this page changes for anyone else, and no provider is contacted until you ask.

What claiming gets you
1One live recordCouncil valuation, title details and registered interests, kept current rather than gathered again every time you need them.
2Your lending in the pictureAdd what you owe, or connect the bank, and the equity and LVR stop being a calculation you redo by hand.
3Providers compete for itPut the mortgage, the insurance and the power out to people who want the business — on your terms, when you ask.
4Everything else you ownOne search finds other titles in your name and in companies you are a director of.

What could you build here?

See whether a granny flat fits beside the house: the Building Act exemption, the national granny flat rules and the zone’s own. Then ask builders to price the shape you pick.
