Whangarei Heads Road, Tamaterau, Northland

An inspiring opportunity to secure this one-of-a-kind, bespoke coastal residence, perched in an elevated position with breathtaking views over the shimmering Whangarei Harbour.

Designed by renowned architect Felicity Christian and built by Manaia Homes, both names synonymous with impeccable craftsmanship, this home masterfully blends a subtle nautical aesthetic with modern-retro flair. Premium materials such as cedar and oak, along with playful touches like porthole windows, infuse the space with a timeless, funky character.

Expansive decks on both sides of the home offer seamless options for outdoor living while following the sun, with one side boasting captivating harbour views and the other affording sheltered privacy.

Designed for energy efficiency, the 140mm thick insulated walls and double glazing naturally maintain a comfortable temperature year-round, while the heat pump and air conditioning provide additional climate control when needed.

The generous master suite, spacious bathroom, and open-plan living area, are flooded with natural light through extensive glazing, creating an inviting sense of space and tranquillity.

The low-maintenance backyard offers both functionality and potential for expansion, while the driveway and turning circle lead to a carport tucked beneath the home. Thoughtfully designed to accommodate future needs, the carport is retained, waterproofed, and insulated, with plans available for further development.

With nature's playground at the heart of this friendly community, it is perfectly situated midway between the city and beach life. It is less than 5km to the Onerahi Shopping Centre, School, and Airport, 10km to Whangarei City Centre. Or you can drive further east along the beautiful Pohutukawa-lined bays to Parua Bay and Whangarei Heads, where numerous bays and beaches offer walking tracks, fishing and boating facilities, surfing, diving, golf, and more.
