13 Muriwai Drive, Whakatane, Bay Of Plenty

With our vendors having secured their dream retirement location in an entirely new location, here's your chance to secure an iconic home, in an iconic location. With around 320m² of living on a 736m² section, this five-bedroom, three-bathroom residence with four secure carparks is a rare offering in one of Whakatane’s most sought-after pockets: overlooking the river mouth, Heads and the Pacific beyond.

The main living spaces are warm and inviting. A lounge filled with natural light flows easily into the dining zone, creating a hub for both family routines and entertaining. The kitchen, finished with stone benchtops and quality appliances, blends style with function, giving you a workspace that handles weekday meals just as well as bigger gatherings.

Accommodation is generous and adaptable. The master bedroom enjoys garden outlooks and its own ensuite, while additional bedrooms provide flexibility for family, guests, or a home office. Modernised bathrooms — one with a spa bath — add comfort, while a separate laundry and plentiful storage keep daily life running smoothly.

On the ground level, the home’s bonus feature comes into play: a fully equipped studio with its own kitchenette and bathroom. Currently set up as a den with a pinball machine, jukebox and space to unwind, it’s a space that can flex between games room, guest quarters, or extended family living.

Outdoors, a wide timber deck looks across lush private gardens, framed with established planting and a tranquil water feature. Shaded corners invite relaxation, while internal garaging and large workshop/storage areas keep the practical side covered.

Muriwai Drive is an iconic address, offering a waterfront outlook with the estuary and river mouth just steps away. You’re close to the CBD, and community amenities, yet the quiet, leafy street and the proximity to Whakatane’s coastline make it feel like a retreat.
