Off Grid Lifestyle Block with Sea Views
The property is available. Contact Rae and Sandie to book a private viewing. We are flexible with viewing times and would love to show you the property.
From the living room at 157 McAlister Road, the view runs from the Tangihua Ranges, across Whangarei Heads and out over the harbour. Water views on one side, rolling ranges on the other, and just over 7.3 hectares of your own land in between.
• 4 bedrooms (or 3 plus a second lounge), 2 bathrooms including ensuite, 287m² floor
• Just over 7.3ha lifestyle block on two separate freehold titles
• Rammed earth construction, double glazed throughout
• Fully off grid: generous solar, battery storage, and a German-engineered wetback fire heating the underfloor
• Substantial four-bay internal access garage
• Grazing paddocks, native bush and a running stream
If you've lived in a rammed earth home, you already know. If you haven't, the first thing you notice is how the walls feel: solid, warm to the touch, and quiet in a way framed houses never manage. They hold an even temperature through every season, and the indoor air stays healthy and toxin-free.
Expansive bifold doors open the living areas straight out to the land, and the kitchen is built to last, with solid timber cabinetry, granite benchtops and gas cooking.
Then there's the part you can't see. When the power goes out across the district, nothing changes here. The lights stay on, the floors stay warm, and life simply carries on. That's what being truly off grid gives you: independence without giving up an ounce of comfort.
Outside, the paddocks currently run horses, the stream winds through native bush, and the outdoor bathtubs are where the day ends, under the stars with the weather rolling across the ranges.
All of this sits a short drive south of Whangarei city, close enough for work and school, far enough to feel like your own world. This isn't just an off-grid home. It's freedom. Contact Rae Ocean and Sandie Kirkman today to experience it for yourself.
