17 Shelly Beach Road, Surfdale, Waiheke Island, Auckland

This much-loved family home has been the backdrop to 26 years of fun, laughter, family and friends. It’s where two boys were raised, grew into men, and where grandchildren now come to play and explore. Now, the chance is yours to secure the same kind of memories for your kids, and your grandkids.

The studio and playroom near the reserve will be an absolute hit for the little ones and your guests. A place to come and go from the water’s edge, with days kayaking, swimming and enjoying everything this special stretch of coastline offers. There is also a degree of separation between the main house and the studio, allowing for everyone to enjoy yet still have peace and quiet. Just across the road Shelly Beach Reserve has been an extension of the backyard, a place for picnics, fishing, launching boats and long summer afternoons by the sea.

Over the years, the home has been thoughtfully cared for and updated. A new roof, new cladding and double glazing on two walls, along with a full repaint of both the house and garage, mean the hard work has been done. Even the garage has been upgraded with a new roof and matching door.

The north-facing deck is a true gathering place, overlooking the mangrove marine ecosystem below, where boats drift past throughout the day. Adjustable louvres let you enjoy the space in every season. Open to the sun, closed for shade, or sheltering you while rain falls softly overhead. Inside, the upgraded kitchen flows easily into the dining and lounge, and straight out to the deck for relaxed family living.

Practical touches make everyday life easy. A large internal-access carport with an Evnex EV charger, a spa room tucked just off the deck, and a second garage perfect for extra vehicles, hobbies or a workshop.

One of the real joys of this property is how easy it is to live here. The access into the home is flat and effortless, and it’s just a simple one-kilometre walk to both the local primary and high schools.

Shelly Beach Road is more than a location, it’s the type of community you yearn for your family to be apart of. The peninsula is known for its strong neighbourhood spirit, regular reserve gatherings, a long-standing Neighbourhood Watch, and a predator-free initiative that locals have proudly supported since 2021.

This is a home where family, friends and community come together. Where the next chapter is ready to be written.

Like a message in a bottle, Shelly Beach Road has a way of finding you at just the right time. Visit today and uncover what you’ve been missing. Opportunities like this don’t wait.
