Two adjoining waterfront properties in Whangamata on the Coromandel Peninsula will appeal to people who enjoy water sports. The older of the two properties at 525 Beach Rd is one of 38 properties along the exclusive Whangamata harbourside and it offers wonderful water views.
The property, known as The Moorings, wasdesigned for an Auckland gynaecologist, Dr Alastair McFarlane.
The existing 172 sq m three-bedroom home has a spacious living room opening to a covered patio. However, someone might prefer to move the home and build a new replacement to obtain the full potential from the 539 sq m site.
The charming five-year-old 231 sq m home at 622 Harbour View Rd was designed by well-known local architect Bruce Scott to capture sea views from almost every room. Harford House is a welcoming home with a cedar exterior and natural-coloured timber floors in the downstairs living area and kitchen.
From the upstairs lounge, you can view the harbour. Views are also spectacular from the master bedroom, which has a deck and an en suite with a spa bath.
This immaculate home has two bedrooms and a den, which could be a third bedroom. There is a second bathroom downstairs.
The landscaped grounds feature a potager garden, an avocado tree and a rose-covered trellis. This 370 sq m property sits directly behind the older home on the harbour frontage.
Both properties are being auctioned on July 12 at 12 noon in Harcourts Rooms, 123 Manukau Rd, Auckland, by Elspeth White and Michele Binnie of Harcourts Walmsley Realties, Whangamata. Ph 07 865 7999 or 0800 377 999 bus; Eslpeth 025 987 681 mob; Michele 025 834 299 mob.
