About this property
Vintage Retro style Bach with stunning sea views
This unique bach is perched on a Pohutakawa clad cliff with wide and open seaviews to Orewa and Whangaparoa.
This is is a very classic kiwi bach - amazing views.
There are two rooms, A queen and the bunk room is well suited for children or teens.
The deck is covered, sheltered and the beach is a 2 minute walk from the bach down some stairs to two lovely coves. Red beach and Orewa are also in walking distance.
Light, airy and private this little gem is a comfortable well appointed traditional kiwi bach. Have fun with the whole family at this special hideaway

What makes this property unique
The location of this beach house for swimming, paddleboarding or any other water sports is a 1 minute walk. For those who want to go boating the boat ramp is less than a kilometre. The beauty of this location is the different view you have from the tides. A secret cove known by locals is found by a short walk around rocks, this deep natural swimming pool is one of the special spots of this area. Paddle boarders along the many bays will often see wildlife in the water, these safe beaches and coastline are unique and picturesque.
The many restaurants, cafes and gelato shops, bars, Surf club, in the town of Orewa nearby are a fabulous location for an outing - the resort feel of the town is a great place to visit when after lounging in a cafe over a coffee or any one of the great restaurants opposite the beautiful long stretch of beach.
