About this section

Another REDUCTION my vendor says sell! Imagine living on a small lifestyle block only minutes from town in a sought after location, which has had recent new owners move in. Elevated - out of the flood zone. Great house site. Tar-seal road. Expansive rural & coastal views. Stunning West Coast sunsets. If you have imagined living here and that list ticks all the boxes, this is where you should be. Sign the dotted line and ring a builder!
