From the listing agent
In the words of Blair Cranston, Bayleys - Orewa
Get on and build your dream home!
Newly subdivided 4614 sqm (more or less) freehold section tucked into the bush clad environment and providing tons of scope for a spectacular design and build project, taking advantage of the gorgeous river views, framed by established bush, trees and open landscapes.
Vendors have ensured the overall section size and designated building platform will allow a variety of design and build concepts. Additional planting has been installed. Detailed engineering reports are completed and available. Robust access to the building platform has been created. Power and fibre installed and ready to go.
This newly issued freehold gem is situated in a quiet, low traffic no exit road, away from the hustle and bustle of the ever-growing Whangaparaoa Peninsula, yet only a short drive to shopping, cafes, restaurants, beaches and other amenities. A short drive to Gulf Harbour, Orewa, Silverdale and the Northern motorway interchange.
Only minutes to the new on/off connection to the Penlink fast transit route, currently well under construction.
Buildable, large, freehold sections in such unique locations, with all necessary preparation work completed, are rare.
Move quickly on this one! Vendors will allow time for necessary due diligence.

Orientation we design around — see the contours on the aerial
Too far away to matter: nearest powerline 432 m.
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.
