luxury house for sale Robert Hastie Drive, New Zealand

Directly opposite the pohutukawa-lined sands of Langs Beach, this modern and elegant home sits front row to one of Northland's most photographed stretches of coastline. From the moment you sit down, the view is already there. White sand, blue water and the outer islands are framed through the living area, close enough to feel part of the room. Morning coffee comes with the changing colours of the bay; by evening, the same outlook takes on an entirely different mood as the light moves across the water. Tinted stacker doors span the width of the living area, opening the home completely to the deck and allowing the coastal outlook to flow uninterrupted from the kitchen bench to the sea. Step outside and you're close enough to hear the waves - a constant reminder that Langs Beach is right across the road. And what a beach it is. Pohutukawa shade the beach, with swings and picnic tables for the younger ones, while the sheltered southern end of the bay offers easy access for boats, launched directly from the sand by tractor. Swim in the clear, sheltered waters, paddle along the shoreline, cast a line from the rocks or head out on the water, or simply find a quiet patch of sand, settle in with a good book and let the afternoon disappear. Summer days naturally unfold here, but the beauty of this location is that it doesn't switch off when the holiday season ends. It's just as appealing on a quiet Tuesday in June as it is with the whole family gathered for January. Then there's the simplicity of the home itself. This is a property that asks remarkably little of you - an increasingly rare quality for a beachfront home. Whether you're managing it from overseas, fitting it around a demanding career, running a busy family household, or simply don't want your holiday house to become another job, this is genuine lock-up-and-leave living. A small front lawn is the only garden to maintain; the remainder of the section is concrete, leaving no ride-on mower, extensive planting or weekend maintenance waiting for you. Inside, the design is contemporary yet grounded in its coastal setting. Open-plan living and dining sit across polished concrete floors beneath a negative-detail plywood ceiling, while cedar and schist bring warmth and texture to the material palette. The master bedroom enjoys its own ensuite and walk-in wardrobe, while two further bedrooms share a beautifully tiled family bathroom and separate WC. A dedicated internal laundry completes the practical layout. But ultimately, this home is about where you are. Wake to the ocean. Walk across the road for a swim. Come home from the beach and leave the doors open to the sound of the waves. Entertain on the deck while the bay provides the backdrop. Fall for it on the first walk-through - a beautifully considered beach home where the setting does most of the work, and the view never needs an introduction.

In the heart of the newly established Blue Moon Rise community, a brand-new home stands proudly, offering the rare chance to enjoy the rewards of a fresh build without the challenges of construction. Complete with a ten-year guarantee, this residence has been finished with unwavering attention to detail, each feature carefully considered to create a home that feels both elegant and effortless. As you arrive, the grand 3-metre-high entry door sets the tone—welcoming you inside with a sense of awe that carries through every space. The thoughtful use of Corten steel balustrade features adds a touch of architectural flair, while quality finishes such as granite benchtops, bamboo decking and bamboo flooring reflect a commitment to enduring style. Upstairs, sunlight spills through expansive windows, filling the open-plan kitchen, dining, and living areas, all designed to draw the eye towards sweeping ocean views. Two generous decks invite year-round living, whether you’re entertaining in summer warmth or soaking in the stillness of winter sunsets. The master suite is a true retreat, complete with floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the coastline, a private ensuite, and a sense of calm that comes from being surrounded by nature. Two further bedrooms and a family bathroom complete this level, offering comfort and space for family or guests. Downstairs, a private bedroom with its own deck, a full bathroom, and a garage create versatility—ideal for extended family, teenagers, or visiting friends. The design continues outdoors with an outdoor shower, discreetly screened—the perfect touch after long, sandy days at the beach. The fully fenced section ensures peace of mind for children and pets, while a portion of the site has been thoughtfully retained to offer a flat area—perfect for a play space, pitching a tent, or creating your own outdoor retreat. Professional landscaping enhances the sense of privacy and connection to nature, and with much of the section concreted, maintenance is kept refreshingly low. Areas have been thoughtfully set aside for future entertainment zones, allowing you to tailor the space to your own lifestyle vision. Just 1.5 kilometres (more or less) from the golden sands, you’re close enough to walk yet perfectly distanced from the summer bustle. Langs Beach, voted one of Northland’s best beaches in 2025, becomes an extension of your lifestyle—whether it’s morning swims, barefoot strolls, or simply watching the tide roll in. This is more than a home; it’s a new chapter waiting to be lived.

Perched above Waipu Cove on just over a hectare of landscaped grounds, grazing and mature native bush, this is a home built the way few are anymore - precast concrete tilt-panel construction on a steel frame, engineered to shrug off the coastal climate, built to be handed down through generations. A home with concrete strength and an ocean soul. Inside, the quality carries through. Negative-detailed ply ceilings lift the living spaces, while the clever two-level design with mezzanine family room captures light and view from every angle. Expansive glazing frames a panorama that genuinely stops people mid-sentence: the full sweep of Bream Bay, from Whangarei Heads across to Taranga and the Hen and Chickens Islands, with the surf line of Waipu Cove tracing the shore below. Three bedrooms, a dedicated office, and a master suite with walk-in wardrobe and ensuite give the layout real flexibility, while the generous deck flows off the living areas - the natural spot for long summer evenings watching the light change over the water. The kitchen is tidy and perfectly functional as it stands, and here lies the opportunity: with the office sitting conveniently alongside, there's obvious potential to reimagine this corner of the home - think modern kitchen with scullery or butler's pantry - and add real value to a home that's solid to the core. Move in and enjoy it now, or put your own stamp on it over time; either way, the fundamentals are done and done well. Outside is where the property works its quiet magic. Established, low-maintenance gardens wrap around the house, fruit trees dot the grounds, and the surrounding mature native bush keeps the air alive with birdsong. There is a genuine tranquillity here, the kind that makes visitors drop their shoulders the moment they step out of the car. Sheep graze the paddock, and a separate cabin offers options for guests, hobbies or a studio. And then there's the beach. Roughly 2km from the ocean, with the Cove Road cycleway just down the road, it's an easy pedal to Waipu Cove - crowned NZ Herald's Best Beach two years running - or a scenic ride the other way into Waipu township for its cafés, shops and famous Scottish heritage. Homes of this build quality, in this position, with this outlook, rarely come to market. Don't watch this one go to someone else - call today to arrange your private viewing.
