Matapouri Bay Waterfront

Located along the stunning Tutukaka Coast, this home is nestled beside the picturesque Matapouri Bay. The crocodile house, as it is affectionately called by locals & holiday makers, is a truly one-of-a-kind property that stands out amongst others.

With direct access to the water the property provides residents the opportunity to effortlessly launch kayaks, paddleboards, & other watercraft from the backyard.

With the stunning estuary surroundings & diverse marine life, it's no wonder that the late renowned marine biologist Wade Doek shared his personal experience stating that the estuary right where he & his family lived for some years offered some of the best snorkelling he had ever encountered. The area serves as a breeding ground for various fish species, crustaceans, & also attracts larger species, including rays, in its warm & crystal-clear waters.

The original 1950s cottage offers a delightful & colourful ambience that is often missing in newer homes. The cozy wood fire makes it perfect for the winter months, while the bifold windows leading off the kitchen create a seamless flow to the outdoor entertaining area. With two bedrooms, a family bathroom, & a lovely lounge dining area, this cottage exceeds expectations, providing more than the average family bach experience.

For the convenience of hosting additional family & friends, there is a spacious & well-appointed sleepout with a lovely veranda, offering all the comforts of home.

Situated on a large & secluded section, this property offers ample space for a camper van & boat, with a designated lawn area for parking. Additionally, there is a convenient tool shed for hobbies or gardening, & a carport for housing a tractor or other vehicles.

After being cherished by the same family for many decades, the difficult decision has been made to pass on this beloved home to a new family who will nurture & enjoy it for years to come.
