Wake up to sea breezes, sunshine, and total privacy in one of the most beautiful and unspoiled bays on the East Coast. Set within a warm, subtropical microclimate, this versatile Whanarua Bay property offers the perfect blend of lifestyle, income potential, and multiÃ'generational living - all just minutes from boat launching and worldÃ'class fishing.
Positioned on an easyÃ'care 1006m² fully fenced section, the property features three separate dwellings, giving you options rarely found in coastal locations:

  • The Main Cottage
A charming, sunÃ'filled twoÃ'bedroom home capturing sea views and the gentle coastal breeze. The openÃ'plan living area flows onto the front deck - ideal for morning coffees, long summer evenings, or simply soaking in the tranquillity of the bay.


  • The Classic Kiwi Bach
Currently used for holiday accommodation, this relaxed second dwelling includes openÃ'plan living, bathroom, laundry, and its own deck. A perfect homeÃ'andÃ'income opportunity or space for extended family and friends.


  • The ThreeÃ'Bay Garage + Extra Rooms
A substantial Kiwi Span garage adds incredible flexibility. One bay has been converted into two extra bedrooms, while the remaining bays offer secure storage for the boat, fishing gear, tools, and all the essentials for coastal living.

Spend your mornings on the water and your afternoons dining alfresco - boat launching at both Waihau Bay and Te Kaha is only 15 minutes away. Whether you're seeking a peaceful escape from city life, a semiÃ'retirement haven, a home with income potential, or a place for generations to gather, this unique coastal property delivers it all.

Additional Highlights:

  • Sea views & native bush setting
  • Fruit trees & lowÃ'maintenance grounds
  • Multiple sunny decks for outdoor living
  • Wireless options available (Starlink suitable)
  • Travel times: Opotiki ~1.15 hr, Whakatāne ~2hr, Tauranga ~3 hrs
  • Available for viewing by appointment

Your opportunity to secure a rare, flexible coastal retreat in tightly held Whanarua Bay.
