134 Phillips Road, Kaiwaka, Kaipara, Northland

Situated on an elevated 6.1 hectare (15 acre) waterfront property overlooking Takahoa Bay, just 75 minutes from Auckland, this exceptional lifestyle property offers privacy, coastal and country views, and income.

Architecturally designed by Kerry Francis and builder Aaron Cameron, who collaborated together to create two cedar-clad residences: a main home and a secondary dwelling set in a tropical paradise.

The main house spans two levels, each comprising approximately 160sqm with extensive wrap-around decks including a resort-style pool complex. Soaring cathedral ceilings, open fireplaces, and a farmhouse kitchen create a warm, inviting atmosphere. Downstairs offers extensive family living, perfect for family and guests, with its own entrance and garaging.

The same attention to architectural excellence is displayed in the second dwelling, featuring rich exotic timbers, a woodburner, and a bath with a view, currently generating over $25,000 annually via Air BnB.

This property is a gardener’s paradise, with impressive landscaping, tropical palms, extensive native bush, three ponds, and home orchards. The current owner is a retired farmer, who has run sheep on the property which features five fully fenced and irrigated paddocks, a three-bay implement shed, a set of sheep yards, a chicken run, and large vegetable gardens. The grounds around the homestead include a conservatory and a garden shed.

With all-tides boat ramp access just five minutes away, this Oneriri Peninsula property combines bespoke family living, income potential, and ultimate privacy in one of New Zealand’s most scenic coastal settings.

The current owner and his family are moving north, giving you the chance to call this place home.
