1166 Thornton Road, Whakatane, Bay Of Plenty

Story… A rare opportunity presents itself in a peaceful coastal-rural setting, where three thoughtfully designed lifestyle sections offer exceptional space, privacy, and tranquillity. Land of this size and calibre, positioned just behind the sand dunes, comes around only once in a generation. From each site, you can listen to the gentle rhythm of waves crashing on the shore, creating a constant sense of calm and connection to the coast.

Each lot has been carefully planned with geotechnical reports available and large building platforms already located to optimise outlook, scale, and ease of construction. Dedicated wetland areas provide natural separation and serenity, while protective covenants ensure the long-term quality of the subdivision, allowing each property to retain its peaceful, high-end character for generations to come. Residents of the subdivision enjoy private access through a designated walkway leading directly to the beach, offering a convenient and peaceful connection to the coastline.

Highlights… These generously sized lifestyle sections offer exceptional peace and privacy in a tightly held coastal-rural location. Set just behind the sand dunes, each site enjoys the soothing sound of ocean waves. Geotechnical reports are available, with large, clearly defined building platforms in place, while dedicated wetland areas enhance tranquillity and natural buffering between sites. Protective covenants ensure the subdivision maintains a consistently high standard, and each lot is fully fenced and serviced with three-phase power, providing both practicality and confidence for future development.

Land… Each lot has been carefully configured to preserve privacy, stillness, and coastal outlook while supporting future development:

• Lot 1 – 8.6528 hectares: A substantial holding offering exceptional seclusion and quiet. The scale of the land is complemented by a large building platform, wetland buffering, and an ideal position for a private coastal-rural estate.
• Lot 2 – 4.2407 hectares: A balanced lifestyle block designed for calm and openness, featuring a generous building platform oriented to enjoy peaceful rural surrounds and the nearby coastal atmosphere.
• Lot 3 – 3.8852 hectares: Offering space without compromise, this lot provides a tranquil, sheltered environment with a large, ready-to-build platform positioned to capture rural views while remaining protected and private.

Location… Perfectly positioned to enjoy coastal tranquillity with everyday convenience. Whakatane is just a 14-minute drive, Matata only 6 minutes away, and Tauranga approximately 56 minutes. Enjoy the rare combination of quiet dune-side living, rural space, and easy access to nearby towns and amenities.

With geotechnical certainty, large building platforms, dedicated wetlands, three-phase power, full fencing, and protective covenants safeguarding future quality, these lifestyle sections offer a chance to secure land where peace, privacy, and the sound of the ocean define everyday life. A once-in-a-generation offering, act decisively.
