From the listing agent
In the words of Hania Johnson, Ray White - Mangonui
Location is key and this section is the ideal spot for your future build, and the elevation and position of this land will ensure that the stunning sea views are retained.
Located a short stroll from the popular Coopers Beach and the local shopping centre, this 711 square metre (more or less) section has a gentle sloping contour. The north-east aspect provides for sunshine and warmth, as well as being nestled into the hill to shelter from the winds.
Sensible covenants are in place to protect your investment including but not limited to:
- Floor area not less than 65 square metres (exclusive of roof overhangs, verandas, decking, garaging and carports)
- 8 metre building height restriction Power and phone services are at the boundary of this section, and ability to connect to main sewerage. Ideally located nearby is the Coopers Beach Bowling Club, tennis courts, schools plus the local boat ramps at Mill Bay and Taipa.
Call Hania today to request an information pack and secure this great section for your future.

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.
