4C Shoal Beach Road, Aramoana, Central Hawke's Bay, Hawke's Bay

An extraordinary coastal retreat rich in history, sea, views, and lifetime memories.

Imagine the grandchildren playing cricket on the lawn, and adults gathering for a game of croquet; this is a place where lifetime memories are made.

Not all beach properties are created equal, and few offer a story, a setting, and a sense of place quite like this historical home.

At the heart of this offering is the original McHardy Estate Cook House; a rare coastal holding, now evolved into a three-bedroom, two-bathroom, three toilet retreat with a laundry room that also doubles as a fourth bedroom.

Inside, a generous lounge and separate living area provide space to relax, gather, and unwind. Native timber floors bring warmth, character, and a sense of permanence that speaks to its past.

Built in 1905 as part of the early station and worker infrastructure that supported this coastline, the cook house connects the property to a much deeper story.

From working station to a now tightly held bach community, Shoal Beach has evolved. Surrounded by modern built baches, this home is truly a jewel in the crown.

Set in a pristine location, this property enjoys gorgeous sea views and true get-away relaxation. It offers direct access to fishing, diving, safe swimming, and a stunning white sand surf beach. A five to ten minute walk brings you to the beautiful beach and neighbouring Te Angi Angi marine reserve with its rich tide pools to explore.

Whether you’re seeking a family retreat to make memories, or a premium Airbnb opportunity, this property delivers both, combining coastal charm, and versatile living in one exceptionally rare package.

Properties like this don’t come along often, this is an opportunity to own a piece of Hawke’s Bay’s history, heritage, and coastal lifestyle.
