Property details

Listing # WTL187708 | Listed on 28 January

Located within the picturesque Ohiwa Cove subdivision, this immaculately presented lifestyle property enjoys an elevated, sheltered setting with sweeping views across Ohiwa Harbour and over to the Ohope Spit. The position is a true standout - protected from prevailing winds and perfectly orientated to capture spectacular sunsets and ever-changing harbour outlooks. Approximately 36 kilometres from Whakatane and just 13 kilometres from Opotiki, this 3.02 ha property offers premium coastal lifestyle in a central location.

At the heart of the property is a striking, high-spec home built in 2016, offering approximately 325sqm of well-designed living. Arranged across three distinct wings, the home features soaring stud heights, vaulted ceilings, natural timber accents and a clever use of materials throughout. The kitchen (with walk-in pantry), dining and main living areas flow seamlessly to the expansive patio, creating an exceptional indoor-outdoor connection that makes the most of both the views and the sheltered aspect. A separate lounge with a hidden bar adds flexibility and sophistication for entertaining while the covered courtyard provides shade and shelter from wind and rain.

Accommodation is thoughtfully laid out, with three generous double bedrooms, including a master suite that opens directly to the patio and enjoys stunning harbour views. Beneath the home is a substantial three-car garage with workshop and cellar storage, with a podlife cabin offering extra accommodation for visiting family. The land itself combines gently contoured valley floor with established native planting. The result is a private, tranquil setting with abundant birdlife and a real sense of retreat. This is a property where design, infrastructure and location come together in a way that is rarely available.
