If you've been waiting for the right moment to get a foothold in one of the Far North's most sought-after beachside locations — this is it.
Set in the hills above iconic Taupo Bay, this stylish 2025-built coastal retreat sits on a 9,512 sqm lifestyle block with sweeping views over the beach and rugged Northland coastline. Less than 5 minutes to the beach and 15 minutes from the cafes and charm of Mangonui Village and Coopers Beach, it's a rare opportunity to secure your own piece of Far North paradise at a price that reflects a vendor ready to move.
THE OPPORTUNITY
Whether you're looking for a personal escape from city life, a low-maintenance holiday base, a first home to call your own, or an income-earning holiday rental in a unique and in-demand destination — this ticks all the boxes. Taupo Bay has a loyal following of visitors year-round, making it an easy and appealing holiday rental when you're not using it yourself. Come and go as you please, earn an income in between, and simply enjoy the lifestyle without having to lift a finger for years to come.
TAUPO BAY & SURROUNDS
Taupo Bay is one of those places that stops you in your tracks. A crescent-shaped bay with turquoise water and a white sand beach, it's home to first-class surf and a surf school — making it equally appealing for beginners and seasoned wave riders alike. Whether it's an early morning walk along the shoreline, a sunset stroll with the family dog, or launching the boat or jet ski from the dedicated beachside launch area, there's something here for everyone. Just south of Taupo Bay, Whangaroa Harbour adds another dimension — with a fishing club, restaurant and pub offering a relaxed and social base for those who love being on the water.
LOCATION & PRIVACY
Accessed via a shared driveway with only five other quality properties, this hilltop retreat feels secure and private. The land slopes gently to a fringe of regenerating native bush, with the home elevated on a generous flat platform that maximises the outstanding views.
THE HOME
This one-bedroom home creates the feel of a much larger living area, with extra-high sliding doors flooding the space with natural light and framing superb views of Taupo Bay. Multiple sliding doors open to wrap-around decking, seamlessly connecting indoor living with the coastal landscape beyond.
Inside, open-plan living is bathed in natural light, with warm timber benchtops, wood-look flooring, and crisp white walls keeping things fresh and easy-care. The bedroom sits at the eastern end, capturing morning sun and superb views, with sliding door access to the front deck. A stylish bathroom with integrated laundry is tucked neatly alongside.
The modular design makes it easy to extend the building and create more space if desired — a simple and cost-effective way to add value when the time is right.
The home is connected to mains power, and two 400-watt solar panels are included in the sale. Two 25,000-litre rainwater tanks and a compliant wastewater system complete the picture.
An adjacent storage shed is also included and could easily be converted to a workspace or studio if desired.
THE BOTTOM LINE
A motivated vendor, a unique location, and a property that practically runs itself. If coastal Far North living — or earning — has been on your radar, now is the time to present your offer.
