Nestled in a serene pocket of Mangawhai this property offers the perfect blend of natural beauty and village convenience.

North-east facing and bathed in natural light, as you step into the living area, you are captivated by the view. The estuary, dune and island outlook is mesmerising but when you can drag yourself away there is plenty of room to relax as well as a chef's kitchen for entertaining. Double oven, microwave, dual dishwasher, a large central island and plenty of storage. Wood burner, home ventilation system and insect screens create ambient living all year round.

The master includes ensuite and walk-in-robe and the second bedroom, with triple wardrobing, is cleverly ensuited to the main bathroom offering comfort and ease for guests or family. A third bedroom completes the accommodation and the internal double garage includes laundry nook and third toilet - handy after a day at the beach, on the water, or after gardening. There's a garden shed for all the equipment and room to park the boat or camper.

Expansive decking wraps around the living area and the covered segment is the perfect pozzie to relax with an afternoon drink while enjoying the view and taking joy in the birdlife. If you are lucky enough you may get to see a tui, wood pigeon or one of the golden pheasants.

Set on 2,485sqm (more or less), you are zoned residential, yet have a sense of lifestyle living with privacy and shelter provided by a combination of native and exotic plantings. On tar seal and under a kilometre, you can walk down to the cafes, galleries, markets, library or estuary, and if you have kids going to school, they can ride their bikes. Whatever you gain joy from there will be a group here to suit your passion. This is a property you don't want to miss viewing. Vendors heading south, here is your opportunity.

Come and experience the magic of coastal living where nature meets community in perfect harmony - you won't be disappointed.
