Tucked into a quiet lane where the hills meet the sea air, this cleverly designed retreat delivers the kind of coastal living people come to Tairua for - simple, calm, sun-filled and beautifully connected to the outdoors. A contemporary hideaway that is a perfect match for holiday seekers, downsizers, or anyone wanting a low-maintenance lock-and-leave that still feels like a designer escape.

Step inside and the possibilities are endless. The main area is wide, bright and flexible - a space that spills effortlessly out through the garage door, dissolving the boundary between inside and the sun-soaked lawn. Plywood ceilings modern lighting and a restrained palette of whites, timber and matte black keep the aesthetic modern and coastal.

The auxiliary area has sleek cabinetry, formica benchtops, a reflective splash back and all the room you need to create quick bites or slow holiday feeds a pleasure. It’s a layout that works beautifully - open enough for easy hosting, intimate enough for everyday living.

The storage area feels like its own sanctuary. Softly lit and warmly detailed with timber-paneled walls, it opens straight onto a private deck. A tidy bathroom and laundry nook keep practicality sorted without cluttering the flow.

Outside, the lawn is where the relaxed lifestyle really takes off. Framed by rolling hills and mature plantings, it’s as versatile as it is peaceful - perfect for picnics, pets, kids visiting for the weekend, or simply spreading out a blanket and letting the day drift by. The timber black shed adds welcome storage for beach gear, bikes and all the toys that come with living near the water. Two dedicated car parks complete the picture, keeping arrivals and departures easy.

All of this sits just moments from Tairua’s shoreline, cafés, boat ramps, walking tracks, and the easy holiday rhythm the Coromandel is known for.
