108 Rua Avenue, Waitarere Beach, Horowhenua, Manawatu / Whanganui

Positioned opposite the beach side of Rua Avenue and just seconds from a beach access, this classic 1940s weatherboard home captures the relaxed coastal lifestyle Waitarere Beach is loved for. With the ocean so close, life here is shaped by sunshine, sea air and the simple pleasure of being near the water.

Set on a generous 928m2 section, the home features three bedrooms and a light-filled open-plan living area. Polished timber floors, high-stud ceilings and a heat pump provide comfort year-round, while the modern kitchen and bathroom blend beautifully with the home’s original character. The kitchen has a great feel, featuring an electric induction cooktop, oven and rangehood, and flows through to a versatile craft room or home office. From here, the home opens into a sheltered alfresco sunroom, ideal for enjoying the sun in every season.

The floor plan is complemented by a separate studio in the backyard, offering excellent flexibility for guests, creative space, or working from home. The property captures all-day sun, is well-fenced, and includes a separate single garage along with a sheltered patio entrance.

Waitarere Beach is known for its wide-open shoreline, strong sense of community, and laid-back way of life. With the progressive motorway stretching north, the commute toward Wellington continues to improve, making this coastal location increasingly desirable. A truly special opportunity.
