From the listing agent
In the words of Lee Dickens, Arizto
Secure your piece of the Far North on sought-after Taipa Heights Drive. Just minutes from Taipa Beach, the river, and local amenities, these lifestyle sections offer an ideal blend of privacy, sunshine, and coastal living — with no building covenants and flexible options to create your own retreat.
Whether you're looking to build immediately or land-bank for the future, each lot provides space, outlook, and the freedom to design without restriction. Plans and council consent are available.
Location & Features:
• Quiet no-exit road with excellent privacy
• Sea and bush views
• Potential for power connection
• Close to Taipa, Cable Bay, Coopers Beach, and Mangonui
• Approx. 30 minutes to Kaitaia
This is a rare opportunity to secure coastal lifestyle land in a peaceful Far North location — build your dream home or create a private getaway with room to breathe.
Currently still going through the subdivision process and subject to survey. Copy of the plan and council consent is available on request.
Three blocks are as follows:
- Lot 1 is 8320m2 potentially has some sea views (up on piles) in the left hand corner looking back over Taipa Heights Drive towards the KariKari Peninsula. The original gate is in the corner.
- Lot 2 is 8048m2, has a gate, a short road down to a flat site. You get some sea views on the right hand side especially if you build up on piles. There is a level building site.
- Lot 3 is 2.42ha, there are a couple of potential sites with good sea views down the back - however you would need to build a road down to this back block.
There are no covenants on the land, sale will be subject to issue of new certificate of title.
Positioned in a peaceful picturesque area, you’ll love being just a short drive from nearby beach towns like Coopers Beach and Mangonui. With Kaitaia only 30 minutes away, the property offers privacy and proximity to amenities.

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.
