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.
