Modern Coastal Sanctuary

Perched on an elevated 969 square metre (more or less) section, this modern approximately 145 square metre residence captures panoramic views over Tokerau Beach. Accessed via a concrete driveway, the home strikes a perfect balance between secluded coastal privacy and immediate access to the Peninsula's finest lifestyle attractions.

Property Highlights • Spacious Open-Plan Living: Bright, seamless lounge, dining, and kitchen area built for easy everyday relaxation and dynamic entertaining. • Full-Length Coastal Deck: A expansive outdoor deck spans the entire front of the home, offering front-row seats to sweeping ocean vistas. • Private Master Suite: Includes a dedicated ensuite, double built-in wardrobing, and direct sliding-door access onto the sunlit deck. • Bedrooms & Bathrooms: 3 well-proportioned bedrooms with built-in storage, serviced by 2 functional modern bathrooms. • Garaging & Utilities: Internal-access double garage with an integrated laundry area, rear yard access, and 2 dedicated water storage tanks. • Secure, Low-Maintenance Grounds: Fully fenced backyard safe for pets and kids, complemented by established fruit trees and a handy garden shed.

Positioned just minutes from the Carrington Estate golf course, local winery, and the Perehipe boat ramp, this property offers effortless upkeep. It functions brilliantly as a secure lock-and-leave holiday retreat, a high-yield investment, or a permanent seaside sanctuary.

Our estimate$696,000

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.

Zoning and hazards

What the council's published maps say about this land. A map is a model of a storm, not a record of one: a LIM or a flood report says more.

Reading the council's maps…

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.
