North Shore Property

Be totally enchanted by this original 1940's art-deco home built on one of the best north-facing sections (1014m2) Beachlands has to offer, oozing character and a rariety of sorts. Elevated views from adding a further floor will provide enhanced views of the ocean. This private setting is complemented by neighbouring Shelly Bay Reserve with it's established native trees. At the front of the property is a quaint wooden gate leading to the Shelly Bay track and the beautiful secluded white sandy beach below. From various vantage points heading towards the sheltered cove of Shelly Bay, one could stare endlessly at the rich seascape panorama that beholds you - surely one of the most beautiful paradise spots on planet earth. Being of the classic art-deco era the house interior is pleasantly original, with a stylish tiled fireplace, ornate ceilings, wooden joinery, beautiful Rimu floors, and an authentic art-deco tiled bathroom in pristine condition. Outside into the garden one is greeted by a delightful feast of fauna and flora, and bird song wisping across extensive green lawn space, rambling roses, towering native tree lines and wisteria - all contributing to the sleepy cottage feel. There is even a classic water bore for the garden and it is the original one on the site which again pumps a feeling of nostalgia in its elegance of design and longevity. This is the first time this unique property has been on the market in over 20 years - a good sign of a happy home. Our Vendors are building a new home out of the area and are keen to move at the end of May. Beachlands is no longer the best kept secret within the sprawling Auckland region. It offers a full spectrum of affordable lifestyle options including many marine activities, field sport clubs, recreational facilities and the world class Formosa Golf Resort. Our fast ferry commute service to the city from Pine Harbour Marina is just 35 minutes away, thus saving one's soul from the perpetually congested Auckland motorway sprawl. The Marina itself presents chic eateries and attractions. This is a rare opportunity, waterfront reserve at the front boundary and adjacent native reserve, providing expansive green space and privacy. If you seek something different, want one of the best locations on the Pohutukawa Coast, development investment, or just yearn for a bit of nostalgia - this home is a must view.
