About this property
Real Kiwi home experience right by the sea
When shown this property 37 years ago the tide was in and the mullet were feeding at the sea wall....
513 Waikino Road, Kawakawa.
Large covered in deck with sea view. Surrounded by bush, birds and silence.
Large open plan kitchen and living rooms all looking out to the view. Tidal so when the tide is out there are oysters a plenty. Large shower and bathroom with bath tub and extra outdoor shower. Spacious bedrooms with 3 queen beds and 1 with a set of bunks and a spare mattress for the floor. Kayaks available for use at users risk. Pontoon and place to launch your boat at high tide. Gravel road for the last 5 km from Waikare Rd turnoff. Looks north to Opua and 3 minutes by boat. Paihia and Russell 15 minutes by boat. Bay of Islands just round the corner - easy access by boat. Half and hour to Paihia by car/ 20 minutes to Kawakawa and shops. BBQ and outdoor pizza oven. Many walks around the 30 hectare farm with bush, native birds and farm animals.
**Maximum people including children is 8.**
This is because of the fresh water and septic system so please no more than 8 people.
