6 Cullen Road, Waipu Cove, Whangarei, Northland

Wake up to the ever-changing beauty of Bream Bay, where the rolling surf, pristine beaches and sweeping ocean vistas set the scene for an exceptional coastal lifestyle. From its elevated, north-facing position, this impressive 238 sq m (more or less) home commands panoramic views stretching from the Hen and Chicken Islands to Great Barrier Island – a vista so captivating it feels new every day.

Every detail of this four-bedroom home, complete with a sleep-out, has been designed to embrace its spectacular setting. Each main living area, bedroom and study enjoys expansive coastal views, creating a strong sense of connection with the surrounding landscape. Step onto the generous deck and choose your pace – a morning swim, a day on the water, or a quiet afternoon soaking up the scenery. From sunrise to sunset, nature provides a show you’ll never tire of.

Built for comfort, space and longevity, the home combines plastered brick and linear weatherboard for strength and timeless appeal. Its well-considered layout and solid foundations offer a versatile canvas to refresh and personalise, making it uniquely your own. At the heart of the home, a spacious open-plan living area flows seamlessly to outdoor entertaining spaces – ideal for relaxed family living and gatherings with friends.

The master wing serves as a private retreat with an ensuite, sauna, second bedroom and study. A separate wing features two additional bedrooms, a family lounge, bathroom and extra toilet, creating privacy and comfort for children or guests.

Beyond the main residence, a collection of outbuildings enhances both lifestyle and investment appeal. A semi self-contained sleep-out with its own bathroom connects to a 48 sq m workshop, offering excellent potential for guest accommodation, Airbnb, or creative use. A 31.2 sq m storage room provides ample space for lifestyle equipment, while a separate 44.6 sq m double garage accommodates vehicles, a boat, or further storage. The bare land in front offers additional value with future subdivision potential, supported by an existing power connection – a rare opportunity to expand or diversify in this premium coastal setting. Altogether, the property’s configuration offers outstanding versatility, ideally suited for multi-generational living, blended families, or those seeking a home-plus-income arrangement.

Just 700 metres from Waipu Cove – recently named New Zealand’s best family beach and second-best surf beach – the property occupies one of the area’s most sought-after locations. The near-completed pedestrian and cycleway provides effortless access to the beach, while Waipu Village, only 10 km away, offers boutique shops, cafés and the much-loved Pizza Barn. For sports enthusiasts, Waipu delivers it all – from golf at Waipu Golf Club, Mangawhai or Tara Iti, to tennis, rugby, cricket, croquet and world-class fishing and boating right on your doorstep.

With its breathtaking views, premium location, versatile accommodation and additional land with subdivision potential, this property represents a rare investment in lifestyle and location. Whether you’re seeking a permanent residence, a holiday escape or an income-generating opportunity, this is a place where value, lifestyle and potential come together.
