From the listing agent
In the words of Ben Gibson, Harcourts - Orewa

Positioned in an elevated setting with sweeping coastal views, 20 Durness Road presents a standout opportunity to secure a substantial blank canvas at one of the most desirable addresses Red Beach has to offer.
The outlook is expansive and simply breathtaking, offering the perfect backdrop for a future build designed to maximise the coastal setting.
Comprising approximately 2,039m² of cleared land, the site is ready for development with resource consent already in place for two architecturally designed dwellings or to build one impressive dream home. The groundwork has been done, allowing you to move forward with confidence and bring your vision to life.
Whether you're looking to create a striking coastal residence, develop and add value, or landbank for the future, the flexibility here is a real advantage.
Located in sought-after Red Beach, just moments from pristine beaches, with access from the property to the clifftop reserve. Motorway access is a short drive away and easy reach to Orewa, Silverdale and local village amenities, this address delivers both lifestyle and convenience.
Opportunities to secure land of this scale, with consent already in place and views of this calibre, are increasingly rare.
Please feel free to contact us for information regarding what completed high-end homes are selling for in the area.
***22 Durness Place is also available for buyers wishing to purchase an opportunity with an existing four bedroom home plus resource consent for a further three dwellings. Refer to listing under 22 Durness Place, Red Beach***

Adjacent DOC / protected estate
Within 93 m of protected land — Hauraki Gulf Marine Park - Seawater
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.
