Waipu Cove – Where Your Legacy Begins

Rarely do opportunities of this magnitude surface in New Zealand’s "Best Family Beach." Set across two titles totalling over 1,850sqm, this is more than just a property; it is a sprawling grandstand overlooking the very best of Northland’s coastline.

The View You’ve Dreamed Of

Perched perfectly to capture the essence of the Cove, the elevation provides an uninterrupted panorama. Look out over the iconic campground to the shimmering Pacific, with the Hen & Chicken Islands and the dramatic silhouettes of Whangarei Heads framing your horizon.

A Natural Sanctuary

Adding to the timeless coastal charm, a magnificent Pohutukawa graces the grounds. This "Kiwi Christmas Tree" serves as the heart of the garden, luring vibrant native birdlife and providing a cool, dappled canopy of shade for those long summer afternoons spent watching the waves.

The Property Highlights

• Massive Scale: Over 1,850sqm of prime coastal land across two titles.

• The Cottage: A charming two-bedroom home with a large, sun-drenched living area—perfect as a classic Kiwi bach while you plan your next move.

• Future Proofed: Resource consent is already in place for a large shed at the road frontage—ideal for the boat, the beach toys, or a workshop.

• Endless Potential: Whether you land-bank, renovate, or clear the way for a world-class architectural masterpiece, the footprint here is unrivalled.

While you'll feel worlds away from the hustle and bustle, convenience is right at your doorstep:

• Waipu Village: Just a 10-minute drive to the iconic village for boutique shopping, award-winning cafes, and all essential amenities.

• City Access: An easy commute of less than two hours to Auckland, making this an ideal weekend retreat or a permanent coastal lifestyle change.

"Voted the Best Family Beach by the NZ Herald, Waipu Cove combines natural beauty with easy accessibility and a rich Scottish heritage that makes this community truly unique."
