Does walking across the road to get to the beach sound too hard? With stunning views of the Kaipara Harbour you will not be disappointed with the location of this well maintained waterfront home in peaceful Tinopai beach settlement.

Does feeding your own power supply back into the grid sound like a cheap power bill? With 14 solar panels feeding the grid and the house, and then the wetback on the cosy woodburner providing winter warmth, you can bet your running costs are affordable. An HRV also helps this healthy home maintain a comfortable temperature year round.

The modern kitchen with bi-fold windows would be a pleasure to work in, and open plan living and dining have a great flow onto a generous front balcony also soaking up full harbour views. Two double bedrooms upstairs each have access to a deck and built in wardrobes.

The back deck is covered and makes a very sheltered outdoor space in any weather, and is the main entrance to the house and also leads to the separate office, and low maintenance back yard. Downstairs the spacious bedsit/studio with ensuite, and the potential for a kitchenette, has its own separate access, with covered outdoor sitting area also looking straight across the road to the glorious water views.

There is a single garage with workshop, and a carport including ample off street parking, with wonderful garden landscaping cleverly designed to suit the contour from front to back. This is a must see with interesting street appeal, that would suit holiday makers who want to swim or launch the boat without going any further.
