Positioned above Whangaparapara Harbour, this charming 104 m² home enjoys an elevated setting with spectacular north-facing views across the water. Offering a relaxed island lifestyle, easy access and plenty of character, it is a property that makes the most of its unique Great Barrier Island surroundings.
The home features two double bedrooms and an open-plan kitchen, living and dining area, thoughtfully oriented towards the harbour outlook. The main house also includes a bathroom, separate WC and laundry. A third bedroom, complete with its own built-in ensuite, is accessed independently from the deck — providing an ideal space for guests, extended family or those seeking additional privacy.
Step outside and the outlook takes centre stage. From this elevated position, you can watch boats move gently in and out of the harbour, with Whangaparapara Wharf situated directly below. It is a peaceful and ever-changing vista, offering a wonderful backdrop from morning through to evening.
Set on 1,619 m² of sloping land, the property features an established garden with mature citrus trees and a natural, understated island character. Water is sourced from a local stream, and the home is equipped with a solar power system. The existing batteries no longer hold their charge and will require replacement, providing the opportunity for the new owner to upgrade the system to their own requirements.
Despite its elevated position, the property is easily accessed via a concrete driveway leading directly to the front door. The level entry provides convenient access for everyday arrivals, unloading groceries and bringing belongings in and out of the home.
The location adds another dimension to the property. Situated just above Whangaparapara Wharf, you are within easy walking distance of the heart of this historic harbour community. The local library and history shed are just a short stroll from the letterbox, reinforcing the relaxed and connected atmosphere that makes this part of Great Barrier Island so appealing.
Offering a combination of harbour views, island character, off-grid living and a convenient location, this is an appealing opportunity to secure a home in one of Great Barrier Island’s distinctive harbour communities.
Asking Price: $775,000.
