Set along the peaceful waterfront in Matakawau, this 4-bedroom coastal retreat offers the perfect balance of lifestyle, location, and versatility—ideal as a permanent home, holiday escape, or low-maintenance haven for retirees. Just over an hour from Auckland, this home invites you to leave the city's hustle behind and enjoy stunning views across the water to Otamanewa Island. With jetty access at the bottom of the garden and an all-tide boat ramp nearby, it’s perfect for those who enjoy boating, fishing, or coastal adventures.

The home has been modernised with up-to-the-minute double-glazed aluminium joinery and fly screens throughout, providing excellent insulation and comfort. The spacious living room invites you to relax as the tide comes in, with the soothing sound of water lapping at the shore creating a peaceful atmosphere. The warm country-style kitchen, complete with a large walk-in pantry, is perfect for family meals or entertaining. The open living spaces flow to extensive decking, offering ample space for alfresco dining or morning coffee. A heat pump and log burner ensure year-round comfort, and the fully lined and refurbished sleepout offers additional space for teenagers, guests or office/hobbies room.

A large 9 x 6m shed with a workshop provides secure storage for your boat, outdoor gear, and hobbies. The thoughtfully landscaped garden adds to the charm and includes a glasshouse for garden enthusiasts to grow fresh produce or flowers.

Located close to Matakawau School, several beautiful beaches, and local attractions such as a winery, golf course, and Awhitu Regional Park, this property offers a relaxed coastal lifestyle with everything you need nearby. Enjoy the friendly community and the simplicity of coastal living, knowing you’re only a short drive back to the city when needed.

This home is more than just a property—it’s a lifestyle opportunity. For those seeking space, relaxation, and adventure by the sea, this is where your next chapter begins.
