Morning surf checks, beach walks after dinner, and neighbours who know your name; welcome to the 18 Ocean Park.

There's something special about this place. Maybe it's the salty air, maybe it's the beach just down the road, or maybe it's simply the laid back community where people still stop to chat. Either way, life runs at a pretty good pace here.

Less than 200 metres from one of New Zealand's best surf breaks and a short wander to Okitu Store, Neighbourhood Cantina and Zephyr Café, this home sits right in the sweet spot of Wainui.

Inside, there's room for the whole family (even the "Big Fat Greek Wedding" kind). Multiple living areas, casual and formal dining spaces, a well appointed kitchen perfect for roast lamb Sundays, and an epic media room with projector and surround sound… because who wouldn't want their own Odeon multiplex at home?

Thanks to two master suites, both with ensuite and walk-in robe, this sprawling 430sqm home offers the option of extended whānau or multi-generational living.

The original upstairs master enjoys peeps of the ocean, and sits alongside two additional bedrooms, a family bathroom and a smaller room that works perfectly as an office or nursery. Whilst privately set apart from the rest of the house, the newer downstairs master opens straight out to the entertaining area and enjoys views over the saltwater pool - perfect for cuppas in bed.

This layout works beautifully for larger families or those who love to entertain, it's almost like two homes in one! Everyone has their own space while still feeling connected. Mum can relax poolside with friends while Yaya and Papa happily babysit at the other end of the house.

Multiple living spaces spill outside to the resort-style entertaining area, privately framed by mature trees with rolling hills beyond. It's the kind of space that turns "just a quick BBQ" into an all day affair. Long lunches, afternoon swims, and summer evenings that stretch well past sunset.

The separate poolside garage with secondary road access adds even more flexibility - think studio, home gym, Airbnb, or the ultimate teenage hideout.

Grand, private and minutes from the ocean. Around here, lifestyle isn't just a bonus; it's the whole point.

Once you experience it, you'll find that Wainui really is a state of mind.
