Site context
What shapes the build here.
Road frontage
150 m
ONE TREE POINT ROAD, PORT MARSDEN HIGHWAY, WAIWARAWARA DRIVE — vehicle crossing still needs council approval
Nearest stream

Amenity at this distance, not a constraint

Site aspect
Falls ≈ north
A north-facing fall suits passive-solar orientation
Too far away to matter: nearest powerline 1.1 km · nearest rail 12.2 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.
