Beachfront living at its best and only a 5 minute walk from town.
The property has been remodelled with love and charm and is full of homely touches matched with a modern boutique kiwi beachfront bungalow. There is many a nook to enjoy through the house, a cosy lounge and open plan entertaining in the modern newly installed kitchen and dining.
With a fully fenced property this is the perfect space for sharing with the wee ones and a safe outdoor indoor flow. The property has hi speed fibre wifi and is a great space to work remotely from.
The feature we know will be everyone’s favourite escape to watch the hours roll by will have to be the large double swing on the balcony with a view to relax and revive.

Look carefully and you will find a Kāhu (NZ Hawk) keeping watch over you from the Macrocarpa tree in the beach garden.
If you need more space or have a larger group please check out my additional beach retreats or reach out to see how I may help you find the perfect fit for your vacation.
