Where the Bush and Sea Meet the CBD

Your chance to secure this truly unrivaled, privately positioned waterfront property, in the heart of Whangarei CBD has arrived for the first time in over forty years. Here's why you shouldn't let this rare chance pass you by.

This original 1930's home is surrounded on three sides by the iconic Hatea river with its own jetty, a landing for watercraft, and views down the river to the Town Basin.

Offering three double bedrooms, one full bathroom and a second separate toilet off the laundry/utility room, a grand designer kitchen with walk-in pantry, and a spacious theatre-like living room.

The double garage offers an abundance of storage for vehicles, kayaks, and paddleboards; with a large workshop and storage room at the rear.

Immaculately presented and meticulously maintained throughout its life - utmost care has been given to the preservation of original features, and the love and care that has been poured into this family home is evident at every turn.

This half-acre section is uniquely positioned on the tidal Hatea River. Launch the dinghy, jet ski, or kayaks from the landing, and from here you can pull in the whitebait or mullet net - perfectly positioned right in front of the smokehouse. The large front lawn offers panoramic views of the water, and the gardens and grounds are a joy to meander - filled with plantings that compliment the era.

Located at the base of Mt Parihaka, the walkway to this mountain begins a few short meters from your driveway which leads you through stunning native bush to both Mair Park and the famous mountain bushwalks. Surprisingly positioned in the CBD - a very short distance to Hatea Loop, Hundertwasser Art Centre, and some of Whangarei's best restaurants and cafés at the Town Basin.

Treasured by one special family for three generations - very rarely is there a chance to secure such an idyllic property, where the bush meets the sea in the heart of Whangarei. Don't let this once in a lifetime opportunity pass you by. Call Milly today!
