From the listing agent
In the words of Jan Anderson, Bayleys - Bream Bay
An elevated 961sqm (more or less) section in one of Waipu’s most desirable positions, just 90 minutes north of Auckland, offering the perfect blend of coastal tranquility and convenience.
This north‑east facing site enjoys sweeping views over the Waipu River out to the ocean, where you can literally watch the surf breaking. The outlook is uninterrupted, uplifting, and rarely found.
Directly across the road, you have easy river access ideal for launching a kayak, paddleboard, or dinghy for a relaxed cruise or a morning adventure.
Waipu Township is an easy stroll away via the Waipu walk and cycleway, connecting you to a vibrant village with markets, cafés, restaurants, and all the essential amenities that make everyday living effortless. For recreation, you’re spoiled for choice. The Waipu Golf Club is just down the road, and world‑class fishing, boating, and diving are right on your doorstep. Whether you’re seeking a weekend escape or a full‑time coastal lifestyle, this location delivers.
For those commuting, Auckland remains within comfortable reach, an easy drive when the city calls, yet far enough away to feel like a true retreat.
A rare opportunity to secure a premium section in a thriving coastal community.

Too far away to matter: nearest powerline 3.9 km · nearest rail 17.0 km.
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.
