From the listing agent
In the words of Leanne Walker, Ray White Warkworth
If you've been dreaming of a peaceful rural spot for a tiny home, mobile home, handy storage, or a comfortable base while you plan your future build, this little block offers an inviting place to begin.
Set across 1.34 hectares, the property enjoys easy roadside access to an elevated, flat area that is ideal for building. From this outlook, you can view the land and down toward the tidal river, which winds through the lower-level boundary and adds natural character and charm. With healthy grazing and approximately three-quarters boundary fencing already in place, there is plenty of room to enjoy the space, bring a few animals, or simply settle into a slower pace. Fringed with trees - natives, wattle, and a beautiful oak holding its own stories, the picture is drawn.
Close to State Highway 12 and handy to village amenities, this affordable opportunity combines rural breathing room with everyday convenience-an appealing opportunity to create, develop, and grow your investment.
Property location: From SHW 12, travel approximately 500 metres, cross the single-lane bridge, and continue to the corner of Ford and Huarau Road. Property access is via the first gate on the right, where the Ray White sign is displayed.

Orientation we design around — see the contours on the aerial
Too far away to matter: nearest rail 1.6 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.
