About this section

This mostly flat, grassy 0.2972 ha (approx.) block offers a unique lifestyle opportunity in a peaceful rural setting. With a few small trees scattered across the section and the clear-running Tirohanga Stream meandering through the land, this fertile plot is bursting with potential. A land surveyor is recommended to confirm exact boundaries, as the stream appears to cross the property. Please note: This property lies within a known flood risk area, and the stream may flood during severe weather. There are no services connected, and the section is unfenced with no improvements, providing a blank canvas to develop your vision. Imagine kayaking downstream to Opua at high tide, or enjoying easy access to the Twin Coast Cycle Trail just minutes away. Located on Doel Road - a quiet no-exit metal road just off SH11 and Waikare Road. This central location is the gateway to the Bay of Islands, surrounded by lifestyle properties. The school bus stops right at the gate, and you're approximately 9km to Opua, 14km to Paihia, 33km to Kerikeri, and 57km to Whangārei. A rare opportunity to own a freehold slice of Northland nature—get in touch today to explore the potential.

Based on plan age + survey class

Survey data from LINZ Landonline. A surveyor's boundary redefinition can cost $3–10k+ depending on site conditions — factor it in if you plan to build close to a boundary and existing marks are damaged or missing.
