From the listing agent
In the words of Paula Alexander, Harcourts - Waipu
***Price Reduced to $640,000*** CV: $620,000
Set on approximately 1 hectare of flat, fertile land, this well-positioned section at 43 Takahiwai Road offers a fantastic opportunity to enjoy relaxed rural living. Situated one section back from the road, it provides a peaceful setting with a pleasant rural outlook, while still being part of a small, established area.
The rich, high-quality soil makes this land ideal for gardening, growing, or creating your own lifestyle retreat. With no covenants in place, you have the flexibility to design and develop the property to suit your vision. Connection to council water services is available from the main road, adding convenience to your plans.
Located just a 5-minute drive from Marsden Point Marina, Ruakaka Village, and a selection of stunning beaches known for surfing, swimming, and excellent fishing, this property delivers a great balance between country living and coastal lifestyle.
Whangārei is approximately 25 minutes away, with Auckland around a 1 hour 45 minute drive-making it an accessible escape from the city.

Too far away to matter: nearest powerline 1.1 km · nearest rail 10.6 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.
