From the listing agent
In the words of Lee Dickens, Arizto
This landscape pulls you in before you’ve even stepped out of the car. A sweeping 5171 square metre site with native bush wrapping around it and glimpses of the ocean reminding you exactly why Cable Bay has become one of Northland’s most loved pockets to settle in. The setting is rare. Elevated enough to give you outlook, sheltered enough to feel grounded, open enough to let your future build take shape without compromise.
What makes this parcel special is its natural flow. The land eases out in broad, usable stretches that make design choices feel straightforward. There’s room to position a home that captures the sun, aligns with the valley and frames those patches of blue water peeking through the treetops. Privacy is already baked in thanks to the established vegetation and the site feels peaceful in a way that photos can't convey.
For anyone planning a lifestyle build, the possibilities are generous. Bring in a contemporary architectural design, create a retreat-style layout, or keep it simple with a single-level home that breathes with the land around it. Gardeners will notice the fertile pockets ready for planting. Outdoor lovers will immediately see the potential for tracks, seating zones and spaces that blur the line between bush and lawn. It’s a section that adapts to you, not the other way around.
The wider location gives you even more to work with. Cable Bay Beach, Coopers Beach shopping amenities, local eateries and Doubtless Bay’s boat launching spots are all within easy reach. Kerikeri is just over half an hour away for bigger errands and weekend markets. This is Northland living with convenience woven into it.
There’s a calmness here that doesn’t translate on a screen. You have to walk the site, listen to it and let the scale of it settle in. So, if you’re looking for land that feels like a fresh start and a long-term investment at the same time, this one deserves a slow wander.

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.
