71 Hukatere Road, Houhora, Far North, Northland

For those who dream of a slower pace but don’t want to give up the good stuff, this 11.7842 hectare (more or less) lifestyle property near Houhora is something special. Just five minutes from the water and 8km the other way to 90 Mile Beach, it’s perfectly placed for both fisherman and adventurers alike. Launch the boat at Houhora Heads in the morning, chase snapper or marlin, then spend the afternoon riding horses or motorbikes over the dunes. Nestled amongst the dunes for natural shelter from the elements, the elevated four-bedroom 1990's home enjoys all-day sun, with open plan living that flows to east and west decks. A woodburner with wetback keeps things cosy, while the double garage adds flexibility with two extra bedrooms and a toilet, ideal for guests or extended family. Horse friendly fencing and 15 electrified, sheltered paddocks make it well suited for livestock, while a deep bore water supply supports the property’s 250 macadamia trees, all processed right here on site. Processing gear, tools and machinery are included. Just minutes from the local school, shops and fishing club, this is the kind of property Aucklanders only dream of, where lifestyle, income and adventure all come together. Cast your line early. Properties like this don’t stay on the hook for long.
