Welcome to an exceptional coastal retreat at 36 Oyster Drive, Cooks Beach - a beautifully designed home that not only delivers outstanding lifestyle appeal but also offers a proven and highly successful Airbnb income stream.
Our motivated vendors have found their new home and want to move on, they are open to negotiation!
Built in 2016 and set on a generous 840 sqm site, this impressive 289 sqm residence combines contemporary design with the relaxed functionality of modern beach living. With three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a separate powder room, plus a fully self-contained studio sleepout with its own ensuite, the property offers exceptional flexibility for families, guests, or additional income.
A standout feature is the separate studio, currently operating as a highly successful Airbnb ranked within the top 1% of homes on Airbnb. Whether used as a retirement income top-up, a holiday fund, or a way to offset ownership costs, this well-established accommodation provides an attractive and proven revenue stream while still allowing the owners to enjoy the home themselves.
At the heart of the main residence is a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and lounge area designed for effortless indoor-outdoor living. The designer kitchen includes a well-appointed scullery with sink, a 5-burner gas hob and two full-sized ovens (including a self-cleaning oven). A cleverly designed kitchen window opens directly to the outdoor dining area, making entertaining simple and social. Large doors connect to expansive decks and patio areas, creating multiple zones for relaxing or hosting friends and family.
The landscaped grounds provide a private coastal sanctuary, complete with a spa pool, raised vegetable gardens and a greenhouse - ideal for both holiday enjoyment and longer stays. Practical features include a double internal-access garage, boat parking, workshop/bench space, heat pump, gas and electric hot water systems, and central vacuuming.
Located just a short stroll (under five minutes) to the golden sands of Cooks Beach and to the stunning Purangi Estuary, and close to local shops, cafés, estuary activities and scenic coastal walks, this is a sought-after address in one of Mercury Bay's most desirable seaside communities.
With the vendors having secured their next home and ready to move, this is an outstanding opportunity to secure a versatile coastal property that offers lifestyle, flexibility, and an established income stream.
Whether you're seeking a premium holiday retreat, a multi-generational family home, or a coastal property with a built-in revenue stream, 36 Oyster Drive delivers on every level.
