Description
Vacant - so early settlement available! She's a beauty size surprise - tucked away with a lovely bush backdrop, this sunny, spacious residence at 24 Boeing Road feels private and peaceful from the moment you arrive. This light filled home is set over two levels and boasts a practical kitchen (with water outlook), a spacious main living and dining area which are open plan. With bedrooms and bathrooms on both floors, there is plenty of room for everyone to have their own space, Upstairs, there’s a massive rumpus room (not shown on council records). This space could be anything you need: a hang out space for the kids, a home gym, a workshop, or a big creative studio. There’s another couple of bedrooms and bathroom upstairs with a bonus office off one of the bedrooms - all this along with plenty of storage, oh and did I mention the double garage with internal access. An entertaining deck area off the dining area offers views across the Whangārei Harbour which create the perfect stage for summer barbecues with friends, a quiet morning coffee, or simply soaking in the sun as you watch the boats on the harbour. The property has small easy-care grounds as most of the property is mainly bush - if you seek a large home with plenty of potential, this is the place for you. You get the best of both worlds here. It feels private and quiet, yet you're right in the friendly Onerahi community, so close to local schools, shops and the lovely coastal walkways, even the airport is just a short drive away. Truly special, and one you really should view. The team at Olive Tree would love to show you through - vendor is open to offers.

Next steps for moving to New Zealand
Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.
Understand the buying rules
Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.
Sort out your visa
Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.
Plan your finances
Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.
Know your tax obligations
US citizens are taxed on worldwide income. You'll need to file US taxes from abroad and may owe local taxes too.
Set up healthcare
Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.
Run the full checklist
Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
