Peace, privacy, and a genuine cottage feel unite at 'Wisteria Cottage', a Mangawhai lifestyle oasis on 1.17 hectares. Set back from the road in a leafy setting, it offers a tranquil retreat where birdsong and sweeping views shape everyday life.

Situated on Garbolino Road, you get the best of both worlds: a coastal-country sanctuary just 5 minutes from Mangawhai Village and 10 minutes to the surf of Mangawhai Heads Beach.

A charming front deck welcomes you, framed by exposed timber and softened by wisteria weaving through the balustrade. Offering picturesque views of the Matakana hills and Little Barrier Island, it’s the ultimate sun-drenched spot for your morning coffee, settle in with a good book, and take in the scenery.

Step inside to a light, airy ground floor where the kitchen, dining, and lounge connect seamlessly. Polished timber floorboards, a heat pump, and a woodburner on wetback ensure year-round comfort. The living space flows effortlessly out to a spacious covered rear deck, providing the perfect balance, quiet mornings at the front, and relaxed, covered entertaining out back.

The 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom layout is ideal for flexible needs. A double bedroom and full bathroom below. Upstairs beneath sloped ceilings are two additional bedrooms, including the master with an ensuite and beautiful elevated views.

Your private land is wonderfully easy-care, boasting rolling lawns, native planting, specimen trees, and fruit trees. Step directly from the house onto bush pathways leading to peaceful landing areas, or explore tracks through your own slice of nature.

Drive up a gated private driveway to a covered carport and a powered garage, underneath the house. While two garden sheds out the back add even more practical storage.

If you are looking for peace, tranquility, and birdsong—with village life and the beach within easy reach—this home is for you.

Open homes at 12pm Saturday and Sunday, or contact Megan for a private viewing.
