Set within one of Whitianga’s most tightly held coastal pockets, this thoughtfully crafted four-bedroom Lockwood home offers an enviable blend of privacy, outlook and everyday ease. Entertain and relax on the front deck and enjoy uninterrupted estuary views which stretch across protected reserve land to the hills beyond, creating a lasting sense of space and calm. From your secluded position, watch the boats head out in the morning, and return at day’s end, or join in yourself, with the boat ramp conveniently just down the road.
From the front door, the home opens into a light-filled dining area where high stud ceilings and elevated glazing enhance scale and atmosphere. A striking 3-metre American Oak table anchors the space, while the newly renovated kitchen sits neatly within its own nook, finished with stone benchtops and quality appliances. Flowing through to the front lounge, generous proportions create an inviting living environment, complete with a wood-burning fireplace, heat pump and direct outdoor access. Water views provide a serene backdrop for both relaxed living and entertaining.
A subtle change in level leads to the primary bedroom, privately positioned to capture reserve and estuary vistas. Direct access to the front deck enhances the retreat-like feel, complemented by an ensuite for everyday comfort. Along the hall, a well-appointed bathroom features double basins, supported by a separate powder room and a dedicated laundry with outdoor access. Two additional bedrooms on this level offer flexibility, one currently set up as a home office, while varied ceiling heights add character and dimension throughout.
Move on to the generous second lounge, which offers a relaxed and spacious living zone with seamless outdoor connection via multiple sliding doors. A fourth bedroom is positioned beyond, providing separation and privacy when required.
Mature trees line the driveway, setting a tranquil tone on arrival. Garaging and storage are a standout, with a high-stud carport ideal for a boat or campervan, a separate double garage with workshop space, plus a woodshed and brick smokehouse. The flat section has been carefully designed with easy-care coastal gardens.
Recently renovated, just moments from the boat ramp and within easy walking distance to town, the location balances convenience with seclusion, capturing Whitianga living at its finest.
