There's something wonderfully nostalgic about a true Kiwi bach – simple, sunny, a little bit rustic, and with enough space around you to make summer memories.
Set on a generous 810sqm section, this original 1940s bach captures exactly that feeling. From the living area, which looks out across neighbouring farmland towards the hills, the front and back yards provide plenty of room for children, pets, gardens, games on the lawn or simply finding a sunny spot to sit.
Inside, the bach layout makes the most of its 65 sqm footprint, with one larger bedroom and a wall partition built to create a second single room or handy office space. The functional galley kitchen looks across the dining area to lovely views of the private rear lawn.
Outside is where the possibilities really open up. Strike up a BBQ, make some lemonade, put up a tent or two, and it's whitebaiting season just down the road! A separate studio provides a great space for an artist, creative pursuit or working from home, while the spacious garage offers excellent storage for vehicles, bikes, boards and all the gear that comes with coastal living, with direct access from Arthur Street behind.
There's generous water collection plus a bore, citrus trees, a beautiful established magnolia in front, plenty of growing space with a securely fenced rear yard for little ones and furry friends.
And then there's Waikawa Beach itself.
This is a wonderfully low-key coastal community where recreation comes naturally. Head for the beach, wander the estuary, enjoy the birdlife, grab food or coffee from the locally run weekend food cart, or simply enjoy being somewhere that still knows how to be quiet.
With easy access south to Ōtaki via the expressway and Ōtaki to the north of Levin highway underway, Waikawa Beach is becoming increasingly accessible while retaining the relaxed, slightly off-the-beaten-track character that makes it so special. This area is increasingly attractive for permanent residents as well as those seeking a special bolthole not too far from larger centres to the north and south.
Come for the bach. Stay for the space, sunshine and community, and create your own chapter of Waikawa Beach life.
