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.

There are few waterfront properties in Auckland where the land itself is the story. Positioned on one of Point Chevalier's most coveted waterfront streets, this exceptional north-west facing holding spans 1,662 sq m (more or less) of riparian-right land - a scale and position that is increasingly difficult to replicate. Held by the same family for decades, this is a genuine opportunity. A rare double-width waterfront site where sun, aspect, access and location align to create something truly special. The north-west orientation captures all-day sun and spectacular evening light across the harbour. Launch a boat or Sealegs directly from your lawn, paddle out by kayak, cast a line, or simply enjoy the ever-changing theatre of the tide from your own waterfront sanctuary. While the existing four-bedroom home offers comfortable accommodation and retains much of its original character, the true value lies in the extraordinary landholding. Free from extensive redevelopment, it presents a blank canvas for those seeking to create a landmark waterfront residence worthy of its remarkable setting. Yet despite its peaceful waterfront setting, the property is remarkably convenient. Just 15 minutes (approximately 8 km) from Auckland's CBD, it offers a lifestyle that balances coastal tranquillity with city accessibility. Opportunities of this scale on the water are becoming increasingly scarce. Whether your vision is immediate enjoyment, future enhancement, or the creation of a dream home, this is a property with exceptional potential. Waterfront living is always sought after. Opportunities like this are increasingly rare.
