262 Tokerau Beach Road, Karikari Peninsula, Far North, Northland

Set against sea views and wide-open skies, this Tokerau Beach property brings a quieter rhythm to coastal living. The 18m² main cabin sits within a fully fenced 730m² section, with two additional cabins arranged around a generous lawn. It is an easygoing setup for buyers drawn to simple living, outdoor time and a strong connection to the landscape.

Inside the main cabin, a bright kitchenette with fridge-freezer and microwave sits beneath exposed beams, while wide openings draw daylight and lawn views indoors. One bathroom with shower, toilet, and vanity, a 1m x 1m wardrobe, and a double-bed loft make clever use of the footprint. A 9.2kW solar setup with inverter and 9.6kWh battery storage supports the cabin, with nine years remaining on the battery warranty, while a gas califont provides hot water.

The extra cabins ( not consented) add useful flexibility. The 7m x 3.6m owner-built second cabin has insulated walls, band-sawn Shadowclad, bi-fold doors and a gas cooker installed by a licensed gas fitter; wiring is in place for an electrician, although power and water are not yet connected.

A third 6m x 3m cabin offers one large room, partial insulation and two sets of bi-fold doors.

Outside, decks and broad lawn keep life connected to the open air. The main cabin has deck storage, a separate rear laundry and clothesline, plus there is a garden shed. There are 30,000L and 5,000L water tanks, with the larger tank connected to the main cabin, along with septic services and four off-street carparks. The main cabin holds a Code Compliance Certificate.

Tokerau Beach puts swimming, fishing and boating firmly in the picture, while the wider Karikari Peninsula offers beaches and bays to explore. Whatuwhiwhi provides a general store, petrol station, café and takeaways, with Taipa Area School further afield. For a coastal base with flexibility and room to make your own.
