16 Creswell Street, Opua, Far North, Northland

Nestled in a secluded bay in the Bay of Islands this beautifully renovated home blends character with modern comfort. With its prime north-east facing position on the water’s edge this property captures sweeping views across the waters of the Okiato channel to the islands beyond. At the rear the alfresco entertaining area with its open fireplace is surrounded by native bush offering privacy and birdsong. Life here revolves around the bay. Step off your deck for a morning swim, launch the kayak or paddle board, or cast a line from the rocks for dinner. Watch ferries glide past, yachts depart for distant horizons, and summer twilight races unfold in front of you, an ever-changing outlook that connects you to the rhythm of the tides, seasons and water. A private mooring ensures effortless access to your ocean backyard. Offering three bedrooms, two bathrooms and three generous living areas, the home includes an open-plan kitchen and living space, a separate lounge with fireplace, and an additional living room for flexibility. A studio/boatshed wing provides space for water toys, a gym or creative retreat, while a private mooring for your boat sits directly in front. Immersed in nature and embraced by a warm, welcoming community, you are moments from Opua Marina, the yacht club, coastal walking tracks and village amenities. A home where family gathers with ease, cherished memories are made, and each day begins and ends with sea, sky and possibility. Contact me today for more information.
