Beachfront - Once in a Generation

Hidden within a private bay just north of Tutukaka Harbour, beneath the dramatic backdrop of the South Gable Nature Reserve and headland walk, this remarkable waterfront property represents one of Northland's rarest coastal offerings. Held by the same family for more than 35 years, opportunities to secure a property of this calibre are exceptionally scarce. Tightly held, uniquely private, and seldom available, this is a legacy estate destined for its next custodian.

Set across four hectares of rolling coastal land, complete with a sheltered orchard, wetland valley and a picturesque pond, a stream meanders past the home before reaching the beach. The property is graced by magnificent 200-year-old pohutukawa trees, creating a spectacular natural sanctuary while providing privacy, shelter and timeless character. Practicality complements the natural beauty, with bore water supplying the troughs and garden hoses, while tank water services the home.

The comfortable beachfront residence enjoys breathtaking views across Ocean Bay and out towards the iconic Poor Knights Islands. A boatshed, complete with accommodation above, offers the perfect base for boating adventures, guests or extended family. Plans are available to further enhance this into a second four-bedroom dwelling.

From your doorstep, enjoy a short stroll to Tutukaka Marina, the renowned Game Fishing Club, waterfront cafés, restaurants and the charming harbour village. Launch a trailer boat from the private beach or moor your larger vessel in the marina and experience some of the finest game fishing, diving and cruising anywhere in the world. The internationally acclaimed Poor Knights Islands Marine Reserve is easily accessible, offering world-class diving and marine experiences in waters recognised among the very best on the planet.

With future subdivision potential (subject to the necessary approvals), the estate also presents exceptional long-term value and flexibility. It's little wonder the Tutukaka Coast was recognised by National Geographic as one of the world's three finest coastlines. Combining extraordinary natural beauty, exceptional boating access and an enviable coastal lifestyle, this is a destination unlike any other.

This is more than a beachfront property—it's a private coastal sanctuary, a family legacy and a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own one of New Zealand's most exceptional waterfront estates.

A coastal lifestyle simply unrivalled.
