luxury real estate for sale Langs Beach, New Zealand

Opportunities of this calibre for a blank canvas in Lang Cove are rare. Set high and proud on an elevated 889 sq m section - one of the larger sites currently available - this prime coastal holding offers an outstanding foundation for your ultimate seaside retreat. The current owners had embarked on creating their ultimate beach retreat, engaging in extensive design and planning before a change in circumstances shifted their direction. Their vision, approvals and groundwork now present a compelling opportunity for a new owner to step in and bring an elite coastal home to life. House plans have been approved by the Lang Cove Residents Association, along with Resource Consent for a striking, architecturally designed residence spanning approximately 589sqm over three levels. The thoughtfully conceived design allows for four generous bedrooms, each with its own ensuite, expansive open-plan living, and an internal triple-car garage complemented by a car elevator for additional parking. A substantial 193sqm of decking incorporates both pool and spa, all positioned to capture sweeping views down the sand and along the beach - a layout focused on comfort, privacy and relaxed coastal luxury. Lang Cove represents the more exclusive end of Langs Beach, where architecturally designed homes and Residents Association oversight protect both aesthetic and long-term value. Access to the reserve and beach is seamless via walkways, with no need to cross a busy road - ideal for families with young children. At Langs, you also enjoy the added luxury of launching boats directly off the sand with a tractor into the sheltered bay. This is a place defined by calm, clarity and connection to the water, set against a stunning pōhutukawa-lined shore. Step outside your door and the beach lifestyle is all yours: surf, swim, fish, or simply stroll along the sand while soaking up the views. Short drives take you to Waipu Cove or Mangawhai Heads for golf, dining, and boutique cafés, but the real magic is here - your private retreat, where days begin with sunrises over the sea and end with the gentle lull of waves. This is a rare chance to secure a premium coastal site in one of Northland’s most tightly held beachside communities - a blank canvas with the hard work done, ready for the discerning buyer to create the ultimate coastal lifestyle. (Boundaries indicative and last photos are renders only.)

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. Contact Sandy McKenzie and Yana Bell at New Zealand Sotheby's International for more information.

Bordering the coastal walkway that links Ding Bay to Waipū Cove Surf Beach, this 3,100 sq m (more or less) parcel of coastal native bush offers the opportunity to create something truly personal in a remarkable coastal setting.

Positioned in Mangawhai and defined by an uncompromising commitment to quality, this remarkable residence offers a level of design and craftsmanship rarely seen in the region. Designed by award-winning architect Jose Gutierrez, the home is a masterclass in material integrity, precision workmanship, and thoughtful spatial planning. The layout comprises four bedrooms, three-and-a-half bathrooms, and two distinct living areas that can be opened up or closed off to suit the occasion. Every detail has been carefully considered, from the Western cedar cladding and Purpleheart hardwood decking to the wide-plank oak flooring that flows throughout the interior. At the heart of the home is an exceptional kitchen, crafted by Lausten Cabinetmakers. Its oak cabinetry was cut from a single tree and arranged in natural sequence, reflecting a level of detail more often associated with bespoke furniture than residential design. Premium Miele appliances, integrated column refrigeration, and minimalist Italian tapware complete a space that is both highly functional and visually striking. This bespoke cabinetry continues throughout the home, extending into the bathrooms and living spaces. Generous living areas are framed by expansive architectural glazing, creating a seamless connection to the outdoors and inviting natural light deep into the home. A separate media room offers an additional retreat, while a striking hallway, reminiscent of an art gallery and enhanced by curated lighting, provides a memorable architectural moment.

Outdoor heating ensures this space can be enjoyed year-round. Inside, ducted heating and cooling provide year-round comfort across the entire home. A separate guest suite offers flexibility for visitors or extended family. The grounds have been extensively and thoughtfully planted with approximately 10,000 native trees, creating a peaceful natural setting that will continue to mature and enhance privacy over time. A small orchard and further space for gardens complete the lifestyle offering. Set within a prestigious gated community with coded entry, residents enjoy access to more than 70 hectares of protected covenanted forest, home to kiwi, along with walking tracks, streams, and a tennis court. The property is also close to the internationally acclaimed Tara Iti and Te Arai Links golf courses, and just a short drive from Mangawhai Heads Village and the surf beach. Further underscoring the home’s calibre, it was named a finalist in HOME Magazine’s Home of the Year 2025, shortlisted for the NZIA Auckland Architecture Awards 2025, and recognised in the Master Builders House of the Year 2024 with Top 100 and Gold Award honours.

On offer is a rare opportunity to be part of something truly special. Located at 300 King Road, Mangawhai, lies a unique community founded with a shared purpose: to protect, conserve, and celebrate the natural, historical, and recreational values of an indigenous forest ecosystem, while enjoying a lifestyle immersed in nature. Known as Marunui, this remarkable 420 hectare property (more or less) of QEII-covenanted native forest is home to kiwi whose calls echo at night, kererū gliding through the canopy, and a network of walking tracks and waterfalls that weave deep into the Brynderwyns. Owning Share 15 means more than simply having a home—it means becoming a guardian of a legacy. Each of the 18 shareholders has the right to a private dwelling site while collectively caring for the land and its wildlife. Here, neighbours come together to maintain tracks, protect kiwi, and preserve the forest for generations to come, there is access to shared facilities and conservation equipment. The residence with Share 15 is a spacious, thoughtfully designed five-bedroom, two- bathroom split-level home incorporating off-grid living. With a Code of Compliance Certificate already in place, it offers peace of mind and the freedom to make it your own, with finishing touches still to be completed. Off-grid here doesn’t mean compromise—it means living lightly, with the bush as your backdrop and birdsong as your soundtrack. Life at Marunui flows at a gentler pace. Some shareholders live here permanently, while others retreat for weekends and holidays, but all are united by their love of this remarkable environment. Community gatherings are often simple yet meaningful—walking the trap lines, enjoying the bush after rain, explore the nearby waterfalls, or sharing stories beneath a sky ablaze with stars. Marunui is more than land; it is a way of life. It is the chance to belong to a community with a shared purpose, where conservation and connection go hand in hand. For those who wish to live with nature, not apart from it, Share 15 offers a rare opportunity. Disclaimer: interior images have been digitally staged and floor coverings added.

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.
