Coastal Character, Modern Comfort
This is classic coastal Kiwiana brought completely up to date. Originally dating from around the 1930s, this gorgeous Taurikura bach has undergone an outstanding renovation, retaining the character and charm of a home from a bygone era while delivering the comfort, finish and functionality expected of a modern home.
Set on just 528 sqm, the property is exceptionally easy care and ideally suited to those looking for a permanent home, coastal retreat or genuine lock-up-and-leave. Elevated just two rows back from the water, it enjoys beautiful views across Whangarei Harbour towards the unmistakable profile of Mount Manaia.
At the centre of the home is the open-plan living and dining area, opening directly onto a large entertainer's deck with glass balustrading and a strong connection to the outlook. The modern kitchen sits alongside, with excellent storage and a cleverly incorporated laundry nook. There is also a separate office, currently utilised as a single fourth bedroom, giving the home a little extra flexibility for guests or working from home.
Accommodation comprises three bedrooms. One retains a gorgeous original bay window, while the generous guest bedroom sits towards the other end of the home alongside the master suite, which offers ample storage and its own modern ensuite. A beautifully finished family bathroom completes the layout.
Outside, the renovation has been carried through with the same attention to detail. The landscaped gardens are immaculate but intentionally low maintenance, while steps from the main deck lead down to the rear garden, excellent under-house storage and a separate garden shed. A carport at the front provides covered parking.
But there is another feature that makes this property particularly special. The home benefits from the right to occupy one of Taurikura's traditional waterfront boatsheds, approximately 350 metres away. Connected to both water and power, it provides an incredibly useful base for boating, kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing gear and everything else that comes with life on the harbour. You get the elevation and protection of being set back from the shoreline, while still retaining genuine waterfront access just a short stroll from home.
Taurikura itself is one of those places that is difficult to replicate. Just around 120 metres down the hill is the waterfront reserve, playground and sheltered sandy beach, an ideal spot for picnics and safe swimming for all ages. The nearest boat ramp is approximately 250 metres away, the community centre is right next door, and the bay is framed by Mount Manaia and Taurikura's distinctive natural jetty.
For those who want something a little wilder, Ocean Beach, one of Northland's best-known surf beaches, is only around 6 km away. Whangarei Heads School, The Deck Cafe and the Mt Manaia Club are all within approximately 3 km, with Parua Bay Village around 10 km away for shops and everyday amenities. Whangarei CBD is approximately 30 km away, Whangarei Airport is roughly a 25-minute drive, and Auckland is around two and a half hours by road.
For those looking for a coastal home with genuine character, very little maintenance and an enviable connection to the water, this one is hard to replicate. With harbour views, a beautifully renovated interior and the added advantage of a waterfront boatshed just a short stroll away, 2382 Whangarei Heads Road delivers an exceptional lifestyle in one of Whangarei Heads' most tightly held coastal pockets.
