Commanding breathtaking sunsets over the magnificent Hokianga Harbour in historic Rawene, The Wharf House is a beautifully restored 1870s landmark offering exceptional flexibility — an elegant private residence, boutique accommodation venture, or a seamless blend of both.

Fully renovated with a Code Compliance Certificate issued in 2019, the home masterfully balances timeless character with modern comfort. Five generously proportioned bedrooms, each with their own stylish ensuite, provide superb accommodation for extended family living or premium guest hosting. Expansive reception and dining spaces create an inviting setting for entertaining, while the well-appointed chef’s kitchen caters effortlessly to intimate gatherings, retreats, or exclusive-use stays.

Heritage features — soaring ceilings, stunning kauri floorboards and a welcoming front verandah — celebrate the home’s history, while thoughtful upgrades including new wiring, wool insulation, four heat pumps and wheelchair-friendly facilities ensure year-round comfort and accessibility. The building has also been raised one metre, offering peace of mind for the future.

Outside, easy-care terraced gardens and a private patio provide tranquil spaces to unwind, whether enjoying quiet family time or offering guests a serene harbour-side escape.

With ferry access to Kohukohu, a vibrant arts scene, charming cafés and boating adventures close by, Rawene continues to attract visitors seeking an authentic Northland experience. Conveniently located approximately 50 minutes from Kerikeri Airport and around 3.5 hours from Auckland.

Whether you envision an extraordinary waterfront home rich in history, a luxury boutique accommodation offering, or a property that provides both lifestyle and income potential, The Wharf House presents a rare and compelling opportunity.
