From the listing agent
In the words of Rhoda Morrison, First National - Maungaturoto
Delightful country pad which will provide you with just under two acres (7845 sqm more or less) of joy. Positioned with a gentle eastward aspect this property offers a mix of grazing land and native bush. Whether you build a new home or enjoy as a Weekend Escape, you will have a grandstand view to the newly constructed Te Piringatahi Bridge, Matakohe River estuary and countryside.
Enjoy a few sneaky water views as you venture around this easy contoured block of land. Flanked on the southern side by mature native bush allows for plenty of shade and shelter from southerly winds. There's a scattering of totara trees on the north side just to keep things interesting, perhaps a place to hang your hammock here. A super-sized macrocarpa tree will keep you supplied with plenty of firewood. The land gently descends eastwards to Kaipara tidal estuary offering potential for kayaking or catch a few sprats when the tide is right.
Benefit from the new post and batten fencing along the main road boundary, plus native planting in place favoured by the tuis in the area.
A short stroll along Te Tonga road leads to a coastal walkway which is a great shortcut westwards to treat yourself to the local Gumdigger's Café, opposite the Matakohe Kauri Museum. The old one lane Hardies Bridge offers a crossing to further admire Te Piringatahi Bridge which stands 15 metres above the Matakohe River.
Definitely worth a look if you are after land not too small yet not too big - Section 27 Survey Office Plan 542878, held in Record of Title 1122538.
Very handy to State Highway 12 on the Twin Coast Discovery. Property is just 35 minutes travel to Dargaville, under an hour to Whangarei, a 20 minute zap to Brynderwyn or 1 hour 30 minutes to Albany's North Shore.

Orientation we design around — see the contours on the aerial
Too far away to matter: nearest rail 9.2 km.
Adjacent DOC / protected estate
Within 74 m of protected land — West Coast North Island Marine Mammal Sanctuary
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.
