From the listing agent

In the words of Joanne Stevens, Ray White Whangarei

The Sellars are open to ALL offers. This is your opportunity to own quite a unique parcel of land right here in popular Onerahi! Elevated to capture the wide view towards the harbour, city and beyond, this 2,017 sqm section is nestled at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac where you experience the joys of living amongst nature, bird life in a sheltered setting. Take in all-day sun with it's north/west position, and enjoy those wonderful sunsets at the end of your day. Entry is by way of a shared driveway (paper road). The section has power and water utilities. Much of the preparation has been completed to create a suggested building envelope. There will be some challenges, however, if you want to build a home without covenants and you are willing to use your imagination to get the most out of this elevated site, then take advantage of this opportunity, - views, nature at your doorstep, walkways, cycleways, and, would you believe, just approx five kms to the vibrant Town Basin, city centre. Come and check it out ! Give Joanne a call to discuss - 0275360369 www.rwwhangarei.co.nz/WHC34929

Too far away to matter: nearest powerline 711 m · nearest rail 1.9 km.

Adjacent DOC / protected estate

Within 61 m of protected land — Whangārei Harbour Wildlife Refuge

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.
