958E Whangarei Heads Road, Parua Bay, Whangārei

Waterfront lifestyle and huge potential

After 30 years of ownership this property is seriously for sale. Discover an enviable waterfront position with sweeping views across Parua Bay, perfectly framed by mature Pohutukawa trees. Originally a bach from the 1960s, it was updated several times in the 1980s and is now a classic board-and-batten, two-storey home offering solid construction, character, and outstanding scope to renovate and create your dream coastal retreat.

Upstairs are three bedrooms and a family bathroom, with the main bedroom opening to a private deck. Steps lead to an elevated room with spectacular views - perfect as a home office, hobby space or quiet retreat.

Downstairs, a welcoming entry leads to a galley-style kitchen, separate dining area and a generous living room warmed year-round by both a heat pump and a wood burner. The fourth bedroom, a second bathroom, and separate laundry are also on this level. The home retains much of its original character, with dated décor and furnishings, providing an excellent opportunity to refresh and add value.

Outside, brick pathways wind around the house, two separate carports provide covered parking, and a private path leads down to the driveway and on to the water's edge - ideal for kayaking, swimming or enjoying the bay. The location is hard to beat: just a short stroll to the Parua Bay Boat Club and the iconic Parua Bay Tavern.

This is a rare chance to secure a true waterfront property with space, privacy and huge potential, right in the heart of the sought-after Whangarei Heads lifestyle.
