489 Tuateawa Road, Coromandel, Thames-Coromandel, Waikato

This expansive Tuateawa property is a true opportunity. With a little hard work this castle could be the private paradise of your dreams. The house was designed by Sir Ian Athfield, a respected and award-winning architect throughout the 1960s onwards. You will be purchasing the property “as is”. Yes, the house needs quite a bit of TLC but it has been well-built with a concrete floor, sarked ceilings and well-constructed rafters, and timber detailing. The stone features are focal points throughout. With a little imagination here, the possibilities start to flow you could be the one to continue this unique journey. The house is dry with no noticeable leaks. You will be mostly impressed with the land on offer. It is a substantial bush property of 4.2 hectares. The views over the Pacific Ocean and the beaches at Matarangi etc are unsurpassed. The gravel driveway meanders up through the bush and leads up to a flat area and the existing house. The choice is yours to develop further or leave the natural beauty of the bush as is. Tuateawa is renowned for its exceptional pristine environment and this property embodies it perfectly. Just minutes away from some of the best fishing spots on the peninsula.
