From the listing agent
In the words of Lin Norris, Bayleys - Whangarei
A rare opportunity to secure a truly special property offering a combination of stunning views, native bush, and waterfalls. Exceptionally private, yet just a short distance from Waipu Village, this hidden gem is so secluded that even many locals are unaware it exists. Here, you can relax and enjoy the very best that nature has to offer.
Consisting of 77.9900 hectares (more or less) in one title, the property includes approximately 12 hectares of quality grazing land, fenced and raced into four paddocks. The balance of the land is steeper in contour and comprises a mixture of native bush, including impressive stands of kauri, mature mānuka, and an area of cut-over regenerating pines. All bush areas are fenced off. The entire western boundary follows a stony-bottom creek, providing clear, fresh water along with a number of swimming holes and waterfalls. The water is suitable for both stock and domestic use.
Underground power is supplied to the boundary and has been extended to a meter box in a central position on the property. A new high-pressure pump has been installed by the creek, supplying water to farm troughs and the caravan.
Elevated positions throughout the property provide breathtaking vistas over Bream Bay, Whangārei Heads, and the outer islands, complemented by a picturesque rural outlook in the foreground. The caravan that is included in the sale is parked on one of the prime building sites and has the combination of the amazing views, plus impressive Kauri trees as a backdrop. This is a property that truly needs to be seen to be appreciated.
Located just 6km from popular Waipu Village, you'll enjoy a vibrant and diverse community supported by a proud Celtic heritage. The area offers excellent schooling and is within close proximity to some of the East Coast's most popular white sandy beaches. Recent upgrades to the Northern Motorway have reduced driving times to Auckland to approximately one and a half hours, with further planned improvements expected to make the journey even quicker and more convenient.
There are plenty of options here, and the choices are all yours. This is a fantastic opportunity for a family, multiple families, or a group of friends to establish their own special getaway. The property has great bush walks in place and scope for more. Ideally suited for a glamping operation.
Included in the sale is a Pageant Majestic caravan.
Purchase price is plus GST (if any).
