Mangakuri Beach - NZ's Best Kept Secret

An as new renovated bach is for sale at Mangakuri Beach in Central Hawke's Bay. This very special beach is one of New Zealand's best kept secrets.

Until recently, Mangakuri Beach with its 23 houses was privately owned, but now each property has its own title. However, in order to retain the unique qualities of this piece of paradise, any 'approved' buyer of a property must agree to a 'condition' that prevents lot sizes being subdivided down to less than 1500sqm.

This particular bach is built on 2680sqm of flat stable land, providing heaps of room for parking and camping, and complete with phone, SKY TV and internet. Comprising of three bedrooms plus a sleep-out, and one bathroom plus an outside toilet.

Immediately in front of this property is a sandy beach suitable for swimming and surfing.
On each side there is rocky reef that you can walk out on at low tide, with crayfish and paua shellfish for the taking. Gurnard can be caught just a short distance in front of the baches. With blue cod, terakihi and moki available along the coast. While further out are groper and the odd snapper. Just along the beach a couple of hundred meters is a bay sheltered from waves where boats can be launched without any drama.

This beach does not have any erosion problems. In fact, the opposite is the case due to sand continually building up and being held by an extensive area of marram grass along the foreshore.

This bach has been in the same family for 35 years, but is now reluctantly being sold due only to the fact that the owners have purchased property in the Central North Island, and wish to acquire more farm land up there.

Rateable Value $800,000.
