Set across 1.5 hectares with wide views to the Kaipara Harbour, this property offers a rare two-home set-up that blends quality craftsmanship with a relaxed, resort-style way of living. The main residence is beautifully presented, built with enduring materials and thoughtful detail, while the two-bedroom minor dwelling provides genuine versatility for extended family, guests, Airbnb, or income. Together, they create a flexible living environment in a peaceful coastal country setting where everyday life feels a little easier.
Inside, thoughtful design meets every day ease. The formal lounge offers a quiet retreat, while the generous formal dining room, finished in beautiful bamboo flooring, comfortably seats twelve for special occasions. Day to day living centres around the open plan family zone with a well-appointed kitchen featuring American Oak Cherry cabinetry, and a coveted Falcon dual oven. Underfloor heating on the ground level, H3 timber throughout, and bespoke Redgraves drapes speak to a build where longevity and comfort were non-negotiable. A spacious office on this level adds flexibility, ideal for working from home or as a potential fourth bedroom if needed.
Upstairs are two double bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a superb master suite. Generous in scale, the master enjoys a private balcony where, on still nights, you can listen to the waves rolling in at Muriwai. The ensuite is equally spacious, complete with its own bath.
Connected by the triple-car garage, a separate two-bedroom minor dwelling opens the door to extended family living, guest accommodation, Airbnb or rental income - true versatility without compromising privacy.
Outdoors, self-sufficiency shines. The gently contoured land blends usable grazing with established orchards and prolific plantings, everything from blueberries to pineapples is growing on site. A large pond sets the scene for resident ducks and geese, there are two great sheds for hobbies and storage. Multiple outdoor living areas are private and sheltered, so you can follow the sun, or the shade, throughout the day.
When it's time to unwind, the property transforms into your personal resort: take a dip in the 9.5-metre Aqua Technics solar-heated saltwater pool, then ease into the Hot Spring spa as the sun slips away. It's an everyday escape from the hustle, right at home - yet just over an hour's drive to Auckland CBD outside of rush hour.
South Head is known for its welcoming, close-knit community and relaxed coastal-country rhythm. Local schooling is well regarded, with Waioneke School close by and Kaipara College on the bus route. The owners can move quickly if needed, which adds helpful flexibility for buyers planning their next steps. With quality construction, adaptable living options, and those Kaipara Harbour views, this is a property that supports the way people want to live today. Viewings are by appointment only.
