Set in a secluded position beside a neighbouring reserve and backing onto the Pataua Estuary, this four-bedroom waterfront property offers a level of privacy that's becoming increasingly hard to find in Pataua South.
While the lagoon, surf beach and local amenities are all close at hand, the property sits away from the main flow of holiday traffic, creating a peaceful setting with direct access to the estuary for kayaking, swimming, paddleboarding or simply enjoying the water. The nearby footbridge linking Pataua South and Pataua North is a local landmark, popular for fishing, swimming and showing off your best manu off the bridge. There's also a public boat ramp just down the road, making it easy to get out on the water.
Despite its relaxed coastal setting, you're only around 10 minutes from Parua Bay Village, approximately 30 minutes from the Whangārei CBD, and around 2 hours 20 minutes from Auckland, making it an increasingly practical option for both permanent living and weekend escapes. Pataua also sits on the doorstep of the wider Whangarei Heads Peninsula, home to some of Northland's most spectacular coastal walks, beaches and outdoor recreation opportunities.
The section is flat and highly usable, with plenty of lawn space and outdoor entertaining areas. It's the sort of property that lends itself equally well to permanent living, family holidays or hosting large groups.
The home itself is a well-maintained 1980s build spread across two levels, with updates made where they matter most. The kitchen and bathrooms have been refreshed, while the home's generous layout continues to work just as well today as it always has.
Downstairs, a light-filled living area connects with the dining space and modernised kitchen before opening out to the deck and outdoor living areas. Also on this level are a double bedroom, separate bathroom, separate toilet and generous storage.
Upstairs you'll find a spacious master bedroom, a second large double bedroom, a fourth single bedroom currently used for storage, and a family bathroom servicing the upper level.
Outside, three separate cabins (available by negotiation) provide accommodation for up to nine additional guests. In its current configuration, the property sleeps seven in the main home and a further nine in the cabins, offering flexibility for extended family, visitors, or short-term accommodation.
There's also ample room for vehicles, along with a single garage, attached carport and outdoor shower for washing off after a day at the beach.
Offering space, privacy and exceptional accommodation capacity in the heart of Pataua South, this property presents a compelling option for families, holidaymakers and those seeking additional income potential.
