IS A BEACH ON YOUR DOORSTEP CALLING?

Tenders close 1pm, Thursday 10 September 2015 (unless sold prior)\n\nSeldom does natural beauty get this close to perfection; this truly is a therapeutic, spiritual place. A rare chance has presented itself to own this coveted slice of real estate on Northland's Karikari Peninsula. Hesitant to relinquish, our current owners have tightly-held this spectacular 77-hectare headland for over 50 years, treading lightly on the land with simple camping holidays and etching out cherished family memories. The substantial property has access to approximately one kilometre of unspoilt coastline and magnificent Puheke Beach. Nothing but paradise and the Pacific sit between the homes, iconic Kiwi baches and sheds. \n\nRipe for development and improvement, the property spans two titles and is reached via a secluded three-kilometre driveway. The first block is 25 hectares of forestry, with the second 52-hectare block consisting of cleared bush, pasture and a collection of buildings. Built to face sublime water views, the family home is a barn style with leadlight windows and spacious decking. True 'off-grid' living has been given a nudge by a powerful generator and solar panels. The second home is 100sqm and consists of a bedroom, living and kitchen quarters, plus bathroom. Further structures include two implement sheds of various specs, plus four rustic baches often accommodating free spirits in search of solitude. \n\nExpatriates have you been hankering a return to your Kiwi roots? Income streams will be viable through all manner of options, Bed and Breakfast, rented accommodation or wellness retreat. Holidaymakers imagine escaping here where the left-hand surf-break performs regularly and fishing is unsurpassed. Connect to the outside world by savouring a glass of wine or enjoying a round of golf at beautiful Carrington Resort nearby. Offshore investors will appreciate the substantial tourism opportunities, or the farming spirit may wish to break in the land further.\n\n
