Waikawa Beach has something special. A little quieter, a little less discovered, and wonderfully removed from the rush, it’s a place where the days seem to stretch out, and the simple things become the best things.
Set in an elevated, peaceful position, this charming 61sqm bach offers an easy entry into that lifestyle, with beautiful views towards the hills, gentle undulation, generous grassed areas and striking Harakeke bordering the property and strategically planted to enjoy whilst looking out over your lot. It’s a setting that invites you to slow down, spread out, and enjoy being somewhere entirely different.
The relatively new, well-insulated dwelling is immediately liveable and thoughtfully arranged for relaxed coastal living. Its open-plan living space, kitchenette, bathroom and bedroom provide a comfortable, manageable retreat, with the flexible 61sqm footprint offering the option to reconfigure the living and sleeping areas to suit your needs.
Outside, the lifestyle really comes into its own. The west-facing patio, courtyard and BBQ nook make outdoor cooking and dining part of the daily rhythm. Enjoy a meal as the sun drops towards the horizon, throw some pinecones in the chiminea, then settle into the spa beneath a star-filled sky. It’s easy to imagine weekends turning into longer stays.
Minutes away, Waikawa Beach offers extraordinary stretches of coastline and dune walks, while Waikawa Reserve, whitebaiting opportunities and the area’s relaxed coastal community add to the appeal. Whether you’re coming from the north or south, this is a wonderful place to leave the working week behind.
And there’s more to the story. The current owners prepared the property with a longer-term vision in mind, including ground preparation and septic and water systems intended to accommodate a larger future build. Their plans have since changed, creating an opportunity for the next owner to enjoy what is here now while considering what the future might hold.
Keep it simple as a coastal bolthole, explore the potential for a larger home, or consider a more permanent Waikawa lifestyle. With the expressway and the progressing Ōtaki to north of Levin connection improving access to the wider region, the location is increasingly appealing to those seeking a balance between coastal living and commuting north or south.
A beautiful little retreat, a gorgeous piece of land, and the freedom to make the next chapter your own.
