A rare slice of coastal paradise

A true coastal rarity - this absolute waterfront property in beautiful Bland Bay lets you step straight from your front lawn onto the water’s edge. With the beach quite literally at your doorstep, this is seaside living at its most authentic and unspoiled. Whether it’s a morning swim, launching the kayaks, or sunset strolls with your toes in the tide, life here flows with the rhythm of the ocean.

Thoughtfully designed for flexibility, the property is consented as a house with a granny flat - effectively two near-identical, 70sqm self-contained villas plus decks under one roof. Both enjoy open-plan living, dining and kitchen spaces on the ground floor, with large master bedrooms upstairs featuring ensuites with full-sized baths. And from both residences, sweeping sea views provide an ever-changing backdrop that’s as calming as it is breathtaking.

Surrounded by subtropical gardens and flat lawns, the outdoor spaces are perfect for classic Kiwi summers - games of beach cricket, kids running barefoot, or pitching a tent for extra guests. The fully fenced section is now dog-friendly too, with council approval for up to two dogs so the whole family, four-legged members included, can enjoy this beachfront haven.

A separate garage provides secure storage for the boat or beach toys, and there’s real income potential too. Previously run as the popular Pawhaoa Bay Villas, the property has earned excellent reviews and repeat guests on booking platforms. Sold almost fully furnished, it’s ready to enjoy immediately or to keep as a treasured family retreat.

Just 40km from Russell and 70km from Whangarei, yet a world away from the pace of modern life, Bland Bay is a sanctuary of swimming, fishing, walking and unwinding. Properties like this, with true beach-on-the-lawn appeal, are incredibly rare. This is your chance to secure something genuinely special - a once-in-a-generation offering on one of Northland’s most idyllic stretches of coastline.
