From the listing agent
In the words of Michael Healy, Far North Coastal Real Estate
Very realistic Vendor's have priced this incredibly unique coastal headland to SELL!
Held in the same family for over 100 years this 13.6 Ha waterfront headland estate located in a very quiet and private position at the western end of Cable Bay is a wonderfully wild and utterly unique slice of coastal paradise waiting to be developed into a truly exceptional seaside retreat. Rising up from rugged rocky coastline and golden sand beaches with outstanding panoramic sea views of Doubtless bay, cloaked in regenerating native bush, and spanning the entire north facing end of a headland between Cable Bay beach and the Taipa river this property is an incredibly rare find with huge potential.
Access is via a mown track that leads up from the Cable Bay side of the headland to a large gently contoured grassed area that could be developed to encompass superb and varied sea and coastal views.
A cleared track on the north eastern side of the headland leads down through regenerating native bush to a golden sand beach with idyllic Bay views.
ZONING: Under the Operative Far North District Council District Plan approximately one third of the land is zoned Residential (including the grassed area) and approximately two thirds General Coastal. NOTE: See Title for property at end of photos. Area marked BLUE is GENERAL COASTAL ZONE and area marked BEIGE is RESIDENTIAL ZONE.
Numerous stunning beaches, local shopping centres, boat launching facilities, schools, and other services and amenities are positioned nearby, and Kaitaia is just 25 minutes away.

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.
