Overview

Coastal Escape Above Urquharts Bay

Perched above Urquharts Bay with expansive views across the harbour to Busby Head and the Bream Head Scenic Reserve, this classic three-bedroom coastal home captures exactly what people come to Whangarei Heads for. Recently refreshed and presented in excellent condition, the home is simple, comfortable and immediately usable. The generous living room is positioned to make the most of the outlook, with large windows framing the water and surrounding landscape, doors opening outside, and a wood burner for the cooler months. Two bedrooms sit off the living area, including the master, which also enjoys impressive views across the bay and direct access to the dual-entry bathroom with bath and shower. The third bedroom sits alongside the kitchen and dining area and is light-filled with plenty of space. The kitchen remains largely true to the era of the home, but is in very good functional condition and includes a substantial pantry. There is also a separate toilet, laundry and internal access to a single garage with plenty of room for beach gear, fishing equipment and everything else that comes with spending time on the coast. Outside is where the property really starts to separate itself. Step from the house onto the patio and take in the outlook across Urquharts Bay, before moving down through the thoughtfully fenced, terraced lawn to the large, completely flat rear garden. Once a tennis court in a bygone era, it now provides an exceptional amount of usable space. The front yard is equally practical, with a generous amount of off-street parking and plenty of room for the boat, caravan or extra vehicles when friends and family arrive. There is also ample space to pitch tents, making the property particularly well suited to larger family holidays and summer get-togethers. With a section of just over 1,000 sqm, there is a huge amount of flexibility here. Leave the grounds as they are and enjoy all the space, or explore the potential for an additional cabin or accommodation in the future. The location is equally compelling. The calm waters of Urquharts Bay are only a short walk away, along with the coastal walking track past the historic World War II defence installations and around to Smugglers Bay. Ocean Beach, one of Northland's most impressive surf beaches, is only a few minutes away by car. For day-to-day amenities, Parua Bay Village is approximately 12.4 km away, Whangarei CBD around 33 km, while central Auckland is approximately a 2 hour 40 minute drive. This is an outstanding holiday home exactly as it stands. Escape the city, bring the family and enjoy it for years to come, or gradually modernise and add your own touches over time. Either way, with the harbour below, Ocean Beach minutes away and some of the best coastal scenery in Northland surrounding you, this is a very easy place to spend time. www.rwwhangarei.co.nz/WHC39997
