Orientation we design around — see the contours on the aerial
Too far away to matter: nearest rail 15.5 km.
Adjacent DOC / protected estate
Within 69 m of protected land — Mangawhai Harbour Marginal Strip No 1
Adjacency to DOC or other protected areas can trigger RMA assessment matters, including effects on ecological values and public access.
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.
