518B Manawaora Road, Russell, Far North

Views to warm your heart forever

Picked by sight from a sea plane over 5 decades ago, this property was chosen by its original owners for its orientation to the sun, sea and islands - its longest aspect facing the North, capturing stunning 270 degree views. Its position on the hill above the beach protecting it, originally from the dusty old road, and now from sea level rises from the effects of climate change. This will be its the first ever handover outside of the original family. Early morning wake ups beckon with views of the rising sun over Parekura Bay to the East and evenings are savoured as the sun finally dips down below a far hill. This truly is a breath-taking position that's been waiting just for you!

Constructed to last, by a boat builder, this Bach is full of character featuring original Kauri lining and Rimu floors, with new roofing and insulation added in 2011. Having been held in the same family since this property was cut from a larger farm, it has been well loved and maintained. It's a classic kiwi icon. Baches like this hardly ever come up for sale. The flat area on the Western side of the property makes the perfect addition to the 2 bedroom Bach, allowing tent space for the extra visitors this property is bound to attract. The deck welcomes you outdoors, where you can take in the view and enjoy a cuppa with the sunrise and happy hour at sunset.

Under 22km from Russell itself, this is an increasingly sought-after area with so much to offer in sea views and activities. Overlooking Parekura Bay, with a short cut track to the best part of Te Uenga Beach for swimming, the location of 518B Manawaora Road is a dream. Fishing, boating and diving mere minutes away with the all tide boat ramp at the beach. Kick off your shoes and relax.

This property really gives you all the options - from Air B&B, holiday heaven or a living paradise. You choose. But be quick with this - it's a real find. Don't wait another 5 decades!
