From the listing agent
In the words of Sandy McKenzie, NZSIR - Northland
Bordering the coastal walkway that links Ding Bay to Waipū Cove Surf Beach, this 3,100 sq m (more or less) parcel of coastal native bush offers the opportunity to create something truly personal in a remarkable coastal setting.
The native bush borders reserve land that stretches towards the coast, creating a wonderful sense of space and separation, with Langs
Beach's distinctive pancake rock formations adding a unique natural character to the setting.
Imagine designing a home that sits naturally within its surroundings, where established native bush provides privacy, birdsong fills the air and the sound of the sea becomes part of everyday life. Rather than simply looking out towards nature, here you have the opportunity to build within it, creating a retreat that feels immersed in the landscape.
The generous site provides for both a main dwelling and a minor dwelling, offering considerable flexibility for the future - whether that's a private family beach retreat, a multi-generational haven, guest accommodation or a main home with a separate space for working from home.
With the coastal walkway at the boundary and the beach just moments away, the setting encourages a life lived outdoors and at a gentler pace. Walk the shoreline, swim at either Waipū Cove Surf Beach or the pōhutukawa-lined Langs Beach, or simply retreat into the quiet of your own private bush setting.
Available to purchase independently, subject to title being issued, Lot 3, 1123 Cove Road, offers the rare opportunity to create a bespoke coastal home immersed in nature, with the sea always close at hand.
The canvas is yours. The setting is extraordinary.

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.
