The Ultimate Maketu Lifestyle

Feel instantly on holiday as you arrive at this peaceful coastal retreat in Maketu. Set on a generous 3007sqm (more or less) freehold section, this property captures the relaxed charm of true Kiwi beachside living. As you drive down the driveway and take in the open space around you, the views toward the Maketu Estuary immediately create a sense of calm. It is easy to imagine long summer evenings here children playing on the lawn, friends gathering on the deck, and the sun setting over the water in the distance.

The main dwelling has undergone a full renovation, transforming it into a modern and comfortable family home while still maintaining its relaxed coastal character. Inside, the home offers four spacious bedrooms and a beautifully designed large main bathroom. The heart of the home is the modern kitchen complete with a butler’s pantry, creating both style and practicality for everyday living and entertaining. The open-plan living area flows effortlessly outdoors, allowing you to enjoy the sunshine and fresh coastal air throughout the day, while a woodburner provides warmth and ambience during the cooler months.

One of the most unique features of this property is the custom glow-in-the-dark concrete walkways that lead around the home. When night falls, these paths create a magical effect, lighting up beneath your feet and creating the feeling of walking on stars, adding a truly memorable touch to the property.

Adding even more versatility is the brand-new second dwelling, providing fantastic options for extended family, guests, or additional income potential. This home offers two bedrooms, one bathroom, and its own kitchen and living space, and is fully insulated. The double-storey design also provides a large storage area downstairs, giving the property extra functionality and flexibility.

The expansive 3007sqm (more or less) section offers endless lifestyle opportunities. There is plenty of room for children to play, gardens to flourish, or simply space to enjoy the peaceful surroundings. A mini orchard with mandarins, grapefruit, lemons and herbs adds to the charm, while generous off-street parking means there is room for the boat, motorhome, jet skis or extra vehicles.

Location is another highlight of this special property. From here you are just a two-minute walk to the beach, making spontaneous swims, evening strolls and relaxed coastal living part of everyday life. Maketu remains one of the Bay of Plenty’s hidden gems, known for its beautiful coastline, the popular Newdicks Beach surf spot, and the well-loved Maketu Beachside Café & Restaurant. With easy access to Tauranga, Papamoa, Rotorua, Te Puke and Whakatāne, you can enjoy the tranquillity of seaside living while still being well connected.

With two dwellings, estuary views and a large coastal section, opportunities like this are rarely available in such a tightly held seaside community. With the vendors now on the move, this is your chance to secure a unique lifestyle property in a truly special location.
