From the listing agent

In the words of Irene Bremner, Bayleys Bay of Islands

Just one row back from the golden sands of Long Beach, this 1,472sqm (more or less) section offers a rare chance to secure a slice of this highly sought-after coastal enclave. With panhandle access across the road to the beach, you're only a few steps from the water's edge - morning swims and evening walks are just part of the everyday rhythm here. Partially terraced with a level building platform and a natural slope rising at the rear, the site is well-positioned for privacy and views. Depending on your final build design and the surrounding development, there's potential for outstanding sea views from your future home. A current resource consent, valid for five years from 2024, provides for an 86.91sqm multi-level dwelling aligned with approved plans - giving you a head start to create something truly special. Whether you're dreaming of a relaxed beach house, a modern coastal escape, or an investment in a tightly held location, this property offers the perfect canvas. Bring your vision and build your own private, sheltered haven by the sea.

The description above is the listing agent's own wording, via Bayleys Bay of Islands. Devlin Property's independent read — buildability, services, hazards and total cost — is in the panels above.

Adjacency to DOC or other protected areas can trigger RMA assessment matters, including effects on ecological values and public access.

Distances are from the parcel centroid to Topo 1:50k features (LINZ); site aspect is approximate, from the 1m LiDAR contours. Road frontage is a proxy — centreline intersection with parcel boundary, not a legal access measure. Confirm setbacks with a district-plan check before purchase.
