From the listing agent

In the words of Tracy Dalzell, Bayleys Whangārei

Set down a private driveway and surrounded by the quiet of the countryside, this 1.9124 hectare lifestyle offers an opportunity to secure a versatile rural holding with infrastructure already in place. The property features a new 90sqm Coloursteel building, positioned to capture privacy and shelter. This structure includes a garage plus a separate sleepout or office space complete with its own shower, making it ideal for temporary accommodation, a home based workspace, or a base while planning and building your future home. The property is off grid having solar power in place. The land itself is divided into two paddocks for a couple of animals while a brown rock quarry adds an additional layer of utility and potential. Whether used for personal projects, landscaping material, or simply as a unique feature of the block, it enhances the property's appeal for buyers seeking something with character and practicality. A farm implement shed is also situated conveniently on the site, offering additional storage. This property will appeal to buyers looking for a private rural setting without sacrificing convenience. Located just 3.7 kilometres from Maungakaramea Village, you're close to local amenities including schooling, sports facilities, and community services. Meanwhile, Whangarei City Centre is only 23 kilometres away, ensuring an easy commute for work, supplies, or weekend activities. With its combination of off-grid living, useful infrastructure, grazing land, and a peaceful setting, this block presents an excellent opportunity for those wanting to establish a home in the countryside.

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.
