114 Hokianga Harbour Drive, Opononi, Far North

Dream living beside the seaside

Property sold at auction.
Can a view get any better? Surely not! As you scroll through real estate listings, this one will grab your attention. A prime waterfront position goes hand in hand with views of the headland, ocean, harbour and dunes too. Simply breathtaking, with the power to soothe and enthral all who visit.

Tightly-held for more than 25 years, this exciting property is now ready to dish out endless summer holidays for the next lucky owner.

Located on a flat 615sqm site, the two-bedroom home is a little like stepping back in kiwi bach time. If simplicity suits, this comfortable abode will deliver years of relaxed living. But there's also enormous development potential here and the dream beach pad would look very slick, with nothing but views, sand and sea from your front lawn. Best still, there is a reserve on one side, keeping your privacy and view a permanent feature!

Modestly set-up makes it an easy-care 'lock up and leave', with the living area opening out to a deck. Onsite are mature fruit trees and a basic shade house for the green-fingered buyer to enjoy. The master bedroom offers fantastic water views to watch the weather patterns unfold from bed. A wood-burner is very effective at heating the home, and the separate double garage is an obvious benefit for storing a boat and all other beach-going toys.

Twin seaside settlements, Opononi and Omapere, are rich in history and beauty. Together, they make a splash for all things kiwi and fun, including zipping down sand dunes, beach and harbour swimming, boat ramps nearby for easy launching, quick access to deep-sea fishing grounds, an eclectic community of good-sorts and all the amenities to suit the flat-white chasers.

This really is a legacy opportunity, where life slows down and you can't help but smile. If coming from Auckland, make the decision on a Friday afternoon and arrive in time for tea at The Copthorne Hotel & Resort (just 4mins from the property) or a wine and beer at the Opononi Hotel (just 2mins from the property)
