From the listing agent
In the words of Paul Bayer, Ray White - Carpenter
Uncover the endless potential waiting at 12 Vista Motu, Red Beach.
Whether you are looking to craft a brand-new masterpiece from the ground up or secure an expansive coastal lifestyle estate, this versatile 819 m² section offers a rare fork in the road where both paths lead to perfection.
Option 1: Build Your Dream Coastal Sanctuary
Bring your architect, unleash your imagination, and design a custom home perfectly tailored to your family's lifestyle. Offered as a completely bare land, blank canvas with services available, you have the ultimate freedom to start fresh. Capture the sunshine, design your outdoor entertainment zones, and build the contemporary beachside home you've always envisioned from a pure starting point.
Option 2: Pair with 218 Whangaparaoa Road & Maximize Your Potential
The neighboring home at 218 Whangaparaoa Road is heading to auction, featuring an already versatile multi-living setup. Buying both properties opens up incredible flexibility: secure 12 Vista Motu to build a brand-new investment property right next door, or combine the sites to create the ultimate backyard for 218 Whangaparaoa Road-complete with sprawling lawns.
The Location
Tucked away in one of Red Beach's most desirable pockets, Vista Motu offers the quintessential Hibiscus Coast lifestyle. Enjoy easy proximity to golden beaches, top local schooling, vibrant cafes, and effortless transport links-all while tucked away in a quiet, established neighborhood.
A bare 819m2 canvas with services ready to go is a rare commodity in Red Beach, but bare land with the neighboring property available at auction is virtually unheard of.

Site aspect

Distances are from the parcel centroid to Topo 1:50k features (LINZ); site aspect is approximate, from the 1m LiDAR contours. Road frontage is a proxy — centreline intersection with parcel boundary, not a legal access measure. Confirm setbacks with a district-plan check before purchase.
