From the listing agent

In the words of Richard Turner, Ray White Matakana

Perched on what is arguably the finest position on Barrier View Road, this remarkable 1.0020ha more or less lifestyle property offers a perspective that simply must be experienced in person. It is only when you stand on the elevated building platform that the true scale and beauty of the views reveal themselves. From sweeping coastal panoramas stretching across the estuary and out to Little Barrier Island, to the meandering river winding peacefully through the countryside before meeting the sea, every outlook is breathtaking. And the beauty doesn't stop there. To the west, the majestic Brynderwyn Ranges provide a stunning natural backdrop, creating a sense of peace, privacy and connection with nature that is increasingly difficult to find. Even more special is the assurance that these rear views are protected - the property cannot be built out or overlooked from behind, preserving the tranquillity and ever-changing landscape for years to come. The current owners chose this site with extraordinary care. Every aspect was considered, from the practical advantages to the emotional connection the property creates. It wasn't simply about finding spectacular ocean views; it was about discovering a place that delivers an exceptional living experience from every angle. Positioned in one of Mangawhai's most sought-after locations, this is coastal living without compromise. Close enough to enjoy the beaches, village, golf course, cafés, markets and boat ramps, yet far enough away to escape the crowds and enjoy the privacy, space and serenity that define true lifestyle living. The views you see today are from ground level. Imagine the spectacular outlook that awaits from the elevated living areas of your future home. With power available at the boundary and services ready to connect, the foundations are in place to bring your dream residence to life. Opportunities like this are exceptionally rare. Premium land. Protected panoramic views. An enviable location. My vendors journey is taking them south, but a piece of their hearts will always remain in Mangawhai. Now it's your opportunity to make this extraordinary property your own.

Too far away to matter: nearest rail 15.0 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.
