A home of considered design, immersed in native bush and framed by the Pacific, Lot 4 offers a rare opportunity to experience Langs Beach at its most private and rewarding. Encompassing approximately 2,725 sq m (more or less), the property occupies a wonderfully private setting amongst established native bush, with expansive views towards the Pacific. Reserve land and the distinctive pancake rock formations of Langs Beach add to the sense of space, while the nearby coastal walkway provides an easy connection to the shoreline and beach. At the heart of the property is an architecturally designed split-level beach home of approximately 225 sq m (plus decks), thoughtfully positioned to embrace its natural surroundings and ocean outlook. Light-filled living spaces open seamlessly to generous decks, creating an effortless connection between indoors and out. This is a home designed for relaxed coastal living -long lunches in the sun, evening drinks as the light changes across the water, and quiet mornings accompanied by birdsong and the sound of the sea. Four double bedrooms provide generous and flexible accommodation, including a detached suite that offers a private sanctuary - ideal as a master retreat, guest accommodation or a peaceful space to work from home. Beyond the home itself lies an exciting element of future potential. Under the existing Resource Consent, a further 600 sq m section can be subdivided from Lot 4 at Stage Two, providing the opportunity to unlock additional value or retain a separate parcel for family, guests or future generations. The lifestyle is equally compelling. Follow the coastal walkway towards Ding Bay or Waipū Cove Surf Beach, swim at Waipū Cove or the pōhutukawa-lined Langs Beach, or simply retreat home and enjoy the privacy and tranquillity of your own coastal sanctuary. Available to purchase independently, subject to title being issued, Lot 4, 1123 Cove Road, offers the rare combination of an established architecturally designed home, an exceptional coastal setting and meaningful future potential. A beautiful home, a remarkable setting, and more to come.

Imagine designing a home that sits naturally within its surroundings, where established native bush provides privacy, birdsong fills the air and the sound of the sea becomes part of everyday life.

The generous site provides for both a main dwelling and a minor dwelling, offering considerable flexibility for the future - whether that's a private family beach retreat, a multi-generational haven, guest accommodation or a main home with a separate space for working from home. With the coastal walkway at the boundary and the beach just moments away, the setting encourages a life lived outdoors and at a gentler pace. Walk the shoreline, swim at either Waipū Cove Surf Beach or the pōhutukawa-lined Langs Beach, or simply retreat into the quiet of your own private bush setting.

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.

Inside, a light-filled sunroom flows through to the living area, where expansive harbor views take center stage. Two comfortable bedrooms, a practical kitchen, separate dining room, and renovated bathroom make this a home ready to enjoy from day one. Outside is where the magic truly happens. Set on a fully fenced 1,186 Sq m section more or less with coveted riparian rights, the water is quite literally at your doorstep. Swim, fish, launch the kayak or simply watch the sun set across the harbor. For boating enthusiasts, the refurbished boatshed and workshop, private boat ramp, and direct access to exceptional fishing grounds create a lifestyle few properties can offer. This is more than a property. It’s a legacy. A place where generations have created treasured memories, and where a fortunate new owner can create their own.

Whangarei's most talked-about residence - and every bit as extraordinary as its reputation suggests. Perched on an elevated site in Ngararatunua, Kamo West, this magnificent three-storey, 776 sq m chateau commands sweeping views across Whangarei city to the harbour, set within 3.49 ha (8.6 acres) of rolling Northland countryside. From the moment you pass through the wrought iron security gates and ascend the sweeping asphalt drive framed by Paradise Stone retaining walls, it is clear this is a property unlike any other. Constructed over three stages between 1995 and 2015 by a master timber merchant, the craftsmanship throughout is simply irreplaceable. At its heart sits a grand curved Spanish marble staircase, complemented by Jarrah banisters and balustrades. A chandelier hangs above, marble floors flow beneath, and rich Jarrah panelling creates a sense of timeless elegance from the moment you enter. The owner's expertise is evident throughout. American Oak internal doors, floor-to-ceiling Mahogany cabinetry in the library, marble fireplace hearths, detailed plasterwork, decorative architraves and substantial timber finishes combine to create a residence of remarkable substance. These are enduring materials and workmanship rarely seen today. In 2023, an independent insurance valuation assessed the rebuild cost at more than $8 million, highlighting the exceptional value represented here. Spanning three generous levels, the home offers four double bedrooms, four bathrooms including a spa bath and sauna, four separate living areas, a formal dining room, dedicated library, home office, sunroom, wine cellar and a goods service lift connecting the floors. The kitchen is beautifully appointed with granite benchtops, American Oak cabinetry, a freestanding stove, centre island with breakfast bar and a fully equipped scullery. The master suite occupies its own private wing on the first floor, complete with walk-through wardrobe and ensuite. Year-round comfort is ensured with six heat pumps, three fireplaces including two open fires and a gas fireplace, while built-in ceiling speakers provide seamless ambience throughout the home. Outside, a vast terrace captures the panoramic views and provides an exceptional setting for entertaining. Stone columns and a pergola frame the outlook, while a life-size outdoor chess board set into the terrace creates a memorable focal point. The grounds include triple garaging, a high-stud boat shed and workshop with a 4.1-metre door and internal gantry, established landscaping, and complete security behind wrought iron gates. Offered with genuine reluctance by an owner who fell in love with the property at first sight, this is a home that leaves a lasting impression. A property of this scale and character invites a rare kind of vision. For those who love to entertain, the expansive terraces, multiple living spaces and commanding views create a setting few properties can match. The dramatic architecture lends itself naturally to memorable gatherings, while the generous proportions and exceptional infrastructure offer flexibility for a wide range of lifestyle aspirations. Equally, it is the ultimate multi-generational family home, with space for everyone, room to grow and craftsmanship that will only become more treasured with time. Properties of this calibre are genuinely rare in Northland and rarer still across New Zealand. If you have ever dreamed of owning something truly extraordinary, built with passion and designed to endure, this is an opportunity not to be missed. Contact Sandy McKenzie and Yana Bell at New Zealand Sotheby's International Realty to arrange your private viewing.

There are homes, and then there are places that change the way you feel the moment you arrive. Positioned at the end of a private right of way with sweeping ocean and island views, 10 Solar Way is a beautifully crafted coastal retreat that rewards those who seek both privacy and presence — all just a short stroll from the golden sands of Langs Beach. Set across two thoughtfully designed levels and approximately 199 sq m, this is a home built for living well. All-day northern sun floods the interior, and the elevated aspect ensures the view is yours from nearly every room — a shifting canvas of sea, sky and island silhouettes. Upstairs, three generous bedrooms offer peaceful refuge from the world. The master suite is a standout: a walk-through wardrobe flows into a beautifully tiled ensuite, while expansive bi-fold windows frame the ocean horizon — a view you'll never tire of waking up to. Downstairs, the open-plan kitchen, living and dining area is where this home truly comes alive. Rustic oak ply cabinetry, a natural white marble splashback and striking black granite benchtop give the kitchen a warm, considered aesthetic that is as beautiful as it is functional. High stud ceilings lift the space, while thoughtfully positioned skylights draw in natural light throughout the day. The heart of the home flows seamlessly out to a covered rosewood hardwood deck — the perfect setting for long lunches, sundowners, or simply watching the tide change. Outside, the home makes an equally strong impression. Hand-charred and oiled Siberian larch cladding gives 10 Solar Way a bold, distinctive character that is rare and genuinely striking. The grounds have been landscaped with future privacy in mind, maturing year by year into an even more sheltered haven. A single garage offers secure storage for all the gear that comes with an active coastal lifestyle, along with a large double concrete laundry tub that's as practical as it is welcome after a day on the beach. From the doorstep, the path to Langs Beach and the scenic coastal track is just a short walk away — mornings made for exploring, afternoons made for soaking it all in. This is a home that invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and embrace everything coastal living has to offer. Boundary lines are indicative only.
