1052 Wekaweka Road, Waimamaku, Far North, Northland

Discover Life in the Wekaweka Valley. If you've been dreaming of pristine air, absolute privacy, and a meaningful connection to land and water, this exceptional Northland sanctuary offers a rare opportunity to step away from the pace of modern life and into something truly restorative. Positioned high in the Wekaweka Valley, in the upper reaches of Waimamaku, this beautifully restored 1930s three-bedroom residence seamlessly blends timeless character with thoughtful modern comfort. Warm sunlight spills across original matai timber floors, creating an inviting, grounded atmosphere throughout the home. Beneath the main dwelling, a substantial contemporary artist's studio provides outstanding versatility. Ideal as a creative workspace, guest accommodation, fourth bedroom, or potential income-generating retreat, this additional space enhances both lifestyle and flexibility. The surrounding grounds have been carefully cultivated into a thriving food forest. Established fruit trees and raised vegetable beds offer an enviable level of self-sufficiency. In the lower section free-ranging chickens enjoy a purpose-built coop, completing the idyllic rural setting. Encircling the property is magnificent old-growth native forest - peaceful, private, and alive with birdsong, including the iconic and rare Kiwi which can be heard calling at dusk. A private walking track winds through the bush, leading to your own stretch of the pristine Waimamaku River. Flowing year-round over ancient boulders, the river forms natural waterfalls, rapids, and deep swimming holes providing an environment for restorative contemplation or as much active exploration as a day may contain. Just 20 minutes away lies the iconic Waipoua Forest, home to Tane Mahuta and some of New Zealand's most majestic kauri. The region is renowned for its expansive native forest and nourishing natural beauty. Coastal lovers will also appreciate the proximity to the beaches of Waimamaku, Omapere and Opononi, along with access to the spectacular Hokianga Harbour and its towering sand dunes - all approximately 30 minutes from your door. Despite its serene and private position, the property remains well connected. A school bus services the road, G4 mobile coverage is reliable, and the home enjoys excellent internet connectivity. The village of Waimamaku is just 10km away, offering quality coffee, a well-stocked grocery store, fuel, a resource centre, and free healthcare for permanent residents. With the owners relocating to Australia, there is also the option to purchase the property fully furnished - including gardening equipment - providing a seamless transition for its next custodians. The local community is small, diverse, and warmly welcoming. This is more than a home - it is a lifestyle of peace, privacy, and natural abundance. Inspections will impress.
