From the listing agent
In the words of Leah Webb, Harcourts - Mangawhai Heads
"Hot to trot", this enviable section offers real value - power to the site, concrete vehicle crossing intact, with fibre available. Our motivated vendors have closed the gap by over $150,000, bringing the current market price to $495,000.
Down a tree-lined quiet lane, you'll find this expansive residential lot. With a flat and sprawling footprint, this greenfield site presents opportunities.
Brimming with potential, there are covenants in place to protect your investment, and a geotechnical report to give you peace of mind. This is the perfect space to create your own private oasis. With an equally amazing lot next door, you can expand your scope and explore further opportunities.
These exceptional sections are the cream of the crop and deserve a look! Close to the Mangawhai Surf Beach, boat ramp, the upper estuary access, and the amenities of the Heads, they are central to the coastal lifestyle.
Lot 2 - 16 Blackbird Place (1243 m2) - $495,000
Lot 3 - 14 Blackbird Place (1230 m2) - $520,000

Site aspect
Falls ≈ north-east
A north-facing fall suits passive-solar orientation
Too far away to matter: nearest rail 15.2 km.
Adjacent DOC / protected estate
Within 88 m of protected land — Mangawhai Harbour Marginal Strip No 1
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.
