489 Hibiscus Coast Highway, Orewa, Rodney, Auckland

Positioned high above the coastline between Orewa and Hatfields Beach, this waterfront property is defined by its outlook. Spanning more than 180°, the stunning views stretch effortlessly along Orewa Beach to Whangaparaoa, across to the Coromandel Peninsula and out to Great Barrier Island.

The home itself is a well-presented 1980s three bedroom residence, thoughtfully arranged across two levels to make the most of both space and outlook. Living unfolds on the main level, where the kitchen and dining sit at the centre, connecting naturally to an expansive front living room anchored by a fireplace and a second lounge positioned toward the rear. Recycled rimu floors run through the main spaces, grounding the home with warmth and character. From the front living room, sliding doors open directly to a covered outdoor deck, positioned to take in the views while offering shelter for entertaining year-round. Decking wraps both sides of the home, providing multiple vantage points to follow the sun throughout the day, from soft morning sunrises to evening sunsets. Upstairs, all three bedrooms are positioned to capture light and elevation, while a dedicated study claims what is arguably one of the best vantage points in the home.

Generous, level and highly usable, the grounds are a rare offering in a clifftop position, with scope to enhance over time or simply enjoy as they are. It’s a space that adds another layer of opportunity to an already compelling property. Set well back from the road through electric gates for privacy and security, the home offers ample parking supported by a double garage and separate workshop or boat shed.

Moments from beaches, boat ramps and local amenities, yet feeling entirely removed, the setting feels like a coastal retreat, where the sea breeze and the sound of the waves provide a truly tranquil experience. Just 30 minutes from the Harbour Bridge (off-peak), this is coastal living without compromise.

Positions like this are tightly held. Now surplus to the vendor’s requirements, this home is ready for its next chapter.
