Ōmarino

In a country where freehold coastal land is tightly regulated, opportunities for international ownership are almost unheard of. Lot 15 at Ōmarino is one of the very few New Zealand coastal lifestyle properties legally available to global buyers, thanks to a rare Overseas Investment Act (OIA) exemption already in place.
This premium site offers 14.875 acres (more or less) of elevated land, set high within Ōmarino’s private dress circle. Its natural hilltop position captures a sweeping panorama across Parorenui Bay, Te Korowhiti Rock and Waipiro Bay. Surrounded by mature native forest, it is an untouched sanctuary with complete privacy and scope for bespoke architectural design.
Owners at Ōmarino enjoy access to world-class amenities: a private marina for vessels up to 75 feet, helipads, guest accommodation including a four-bedroom lodge and one-bedroom apartment, and a full-time onsite management team. Exclusive pathways lead to the beach, while a clubhouse and boatshed create community without compromising privacy.
Rarely does a property of this scale, setting and accessibility become available to the global market. Lot 15 combines natural beauty, security, and investment clarity — a legacy opportunity for discerning buyers seeking permanence on one of the world’s last great coastlines.

Positioned in one of New Zealand’s most tightly held coastal locations, Lots 1 and 2 present a rare opportunity to secure substantial waterfront land at renowned Langs Beach — widely regarded as one of the country’s most desirable seaside destinations.
Celebrated for its pristine white sand, safe swimming and relaxed coastal atmosphere, Langs Beach continues to attract discerning buyers seeking both lifestyle and long-term value. Located just over 90 minutes from Auckland, it offers the ideal balance of accessibility and escape — close enough for regular enjoyment, yet far enough to feel like a true retreat. Opportunities to secure sizeable, residentially zoned absolute waterfront land in this location are increasingly scarce, making these remaining sites particularly compelling.
Waterfront Scale, Elevation and Genuine Future Potential
Among the final opportunities available, Lot 2 stands as a remarkable coastal holding, encompassing 3.7145 hectares (more or less) of residentially zoned oceanfront land. Elevated above the shoreline, the property captures expansive coastal panoramas and enjoys a sense of privacy, scale and presence that is seldom replicated along this coastline.
The natural topography provides multiple elevated building platforms, each offering a unique outlook and the flexibility to design and position more than one home, subject to council approval. This creates genuine versatility - whether the vision is a private coastal estate, a multi-generational family retreat, or a carefully considered long-term investment in land that is becoming harder to replace.
From these commanding vantage points, the views extend toward Whangārei Heads, across to the iconic Hen and Chicken Islands and the remote beauty of the Mokohinau Islands, and on clear days, as far as Great Barrier Island. It is a sweeping coastal outlook that reinforces the rarity of this position and the enduring appeal of owning land in such a celebrated setting.
The land flows naturally toward the esplanade reserve and dramatic coastal formations, creating a direct connection to the shoreline and the lifestyle that defines this part of the coast — swimming, fishing, exploring and unwinding in a landscape framed by mature pōhutukawa and native vegetation. It is the kind of setting that invites both immediate enjoyment and long-term vision.
What continues to set Langs Beach apart is its unique combination of natural beauty, accessibility and tightly held ownership. Significant waterfront holdings are rarely released, and when they are, they attract strong interest from buyers who recognise the long-term value of securing land in such a prestigious coastal environment. These sites are not simply sections - they are legacy holdings in a location where demand consistently outpaces supply.
The Opportunity
Interest in this coastal collection has already been demonstrated, with Lot 5 - the original farmhouse site - now successfully sold, further reinforcing buyer confidence in both the location and the quality of the remaining land. Attention is now firmly focused on Lots 1 and 2, widely considered the premium oceanfront positions within the offering.
If you have been waiting for a truly special piece of waterfront land at Langs Beach, this is the moment to act. Opportunities of this scale and calibre are seldom repeated, and once secured, are often held for generations.
Contact us today to arrange a private viewing, walk the land, and experience firsthand why these remaining oceanfront sites represent one of the most desirable coastal opportunities currently available.

The generous flat site is beautifully laid out with the house taking pride of centre; the matching double garage complete with bathroom, water treatment plant, storage and loft/pool room off to the side; and boat shed at the rear. The entire property has been lovingly developed, landscaped and maintained by the vendors to the highest standard over 25 years.

The horseshoe shingle driveway features attractive matching heavy timber and iron rolling gates and fence which create a stunning entrance. The earthy Tuscan tones of the house and garage blend in tastefully with the surrounding greenery. The manicured gardens feature a large thoughtfully arranged rock collection sourced from a local farm.

The welcoming lobby with coloured concrete floor leads to a carpeted staircase to the substantial first floor master bedroom, complete with en-suite, walk-through wardrobe and an office with its own deck looking out to the striking tall archways of the north atrium.

2213 Whananaki North Road

Set amidst 11 hectares (more or less) of pristine native bush and rolling countryside, this remarkable estate is a celebration of artistry, craftsmanship, and nature in perfect harmony.
Hand-crafted from Canadian White Pine logs, the residence tells a story of dedication and vision. Each log was precisely cut and assembled in Canada before being carefully dismantled, shipped, and reassembled on-site in New Zealand — every piece individually numbered to ensure absolute precision.
The result is a home of rare beauty and warmth. Inside, polished Jarrah timber floors and natural timber textures create an inviting sense of comfort, while modern conveniences blend effortlessly with timeless design.
The property features underfloor heating throughout the lower level, and a stunning stone fireplace in the living room ensures year-round comfort and sustainability.
Currently operating successfully as boutique accommodation aptly named Yellowstone Lodge, the property also lends itself perfectly to use as a private residence, a serene retreat for those seeking space, privacy, and a deep connection with nature.
Generous open-plan living areas flow onto expansive decks that capture sweeping rural vistas and ever-changing skies. Three of the six bedrooms enjoy private balconies, each offering a peaceful sanctuary to savour the surrounding tranquility.
Four bedrooms feature ensuites, and three bathrooms are fitted with bidets, a touch of understated luxury.
Beyond the home, meandering pathways lead past ponds and through stands of native bush, enhancing the estate’s natural harmony.
For the enthusiast or collector, the property offers extensive garaging, accommodating up to eight vehicles, with extra-high stud height, electric doors, a workshop, and bathroom facilities. A 15 KVA generator, wired directly into the home, provides peace of mind during power outages.
Every detail has been thoughtfully considered, from the light-filled sunroom to the refreshed interior finishes — creating an atmosphere of understated sophistication and calm.
All this is just a 20-minute drive to Kerikeri Airport or 35 minutes to Paihia, the heart of the Bay of Islands. Or arrive in style by helicopter, with a cleared helipad ready for easy landings.
Get in touch with Ash Boyd from New Zealand Sotheby's International Realty to experience this handcrafted masterpiece for yourself.

Yellow Stone Lodge

Rising above the coastline in one of Langs Beach’s most exclusive and tightly held waterfront settings, this exceptional oceanfront site offers a rare opportunity to secure significant residentially zoned land with sweeping, uninterrupted views across the Pacific Ocean.
Comprising approximately 5,440 sq m (more or less), the property enjoys an elevated natural position where expansive sea views, glowing sunrises, seabirds and ever-changing coastal light create a dramatic and immersive backdrop to everyday life. Perfectly positioned between the white sands of Langs Beach and nearby Waipu Cove, the setting combines prestige, privacy and permanence in a location defined by its enduring natural beauty and tightly held ownership.
Already zoned residential, the site offers exceptional future flexibility. Subject to council approval, there is genuine potential for multiple dwellings and/or a minor dwelling, providing a range of options that may include a striking coastal residence, a carefully considered multi-home arrangement, or a strategic long-term landholding in one of Northland’s most sought-after coastal corridors. This level of versatility, in such a premium oceanfront position, is increasingly rare.
The land naturally falls toward the esplanade reserve and dramatic coastal rock formations, where pōhutukawa and native vegetation frame the boundary and reinforce a strong sense of privacy and connection to the landscape. The result is a site that feels both elevated and grounded - open to the horizon, yet protected in its natural setting.
Opportunities to secure oceanfront land of this calibre are exceptionally limited. Elevated, private, residentially zoned, and positioned within one of the region’s most desirable coastal environments, it represents a compelling blend of lifestyle, scarcity and long-term value.
Offered on its own, or in conjunction with the adjoining oceanfront holding, this is a rare chance to secure a substantial coastal footprint. Together, the combined opportunity creates a significant land holding of scale and presence - a true legacy asset in an irreplaceable waterfront location.
We invite your enquiry today to arrange a private viewing and experience the scale, outlook and potential of this extraordinary coastal opportunity firsthand.

319 Mangapai Caves Road, Mangapai

On offer is a rare opportunity to be part of something truly special. Located at 300 King Road, Mangawhai, lies a unique community founded with a shared purpose: to protect, conserve, and celebrate the natural, historical, and recreational values of an indigenous forest ecosystem, while enjoying a lifestyle immersed in nature.
Known as Marunui, this remarkable 420 hectare property (more or less) of QEII-covenanted native forest is home to kiwi whose calls echo at night, kererū gliding through the canopy, and a network of walking tracks and waterfalls that weave deep into the Brynderwyns.
Owning Share 15 means more than simply having a home—it means becoming a guardian of a legacy. Each of the 18 shareholders has the right to a private dwelling site while collectively caring for the land and its wildlife. Here, neighbours come together to maintain tracks, protect kiwi, and preserve the forest for generations to come, there is access to shared facilities and conservation equipment.
The residence with Share 15 is a spacious, thoughtfully designed five-bedroom, two- bathroom split-level home incorporating off-grid living. With a Code of Compliance Certificate already in place, it offers peace of mind and the freedom to make it your own, with finishing touches still to be completed. Off-grid here doesn’t mean compromise—it means living lightly, with the bush as your backdrop and birdsong as your soundtrack.
Life at Marunui flows at a gentler pace. Some shareholders live here permanently, while others retreat for weekends and holidays, but all are united by their love of this remarkable environment. Community gatherings are often simple yet meaningful—walking the trap lines, enjoying the bush after rain, explore the nearby waterfalls, or sharing stories beneath a sky ablaze with stars.
Marunui is more than land; it is a way of life. It is the chance to belong to a community with a shared purpose, where conservation and connection go hand in hand. For those who wish to live with nature, not apart from it, Share 15 offers a rare opportunity.

Set on a flat, generously sized 976 sq m (more or less) estuary-front section, 281 Cove Road enjoys an elevated position above the water, capturing ever-changing views across the estuary towards the ocean and offshore islands beyond. This peaceful, sun-soaked setting offers a strong sense of space and connection to the coastal environment, where reflections, birdlife and shifting light form part of everyday living.
The property is improved by a refreshed 1970s two-storey beach bach, while the site itself presents clear potential for a future main dwelling and minor dwelling (subject to council consent). This flexibility allows buyers to enjoy the home as it is, further enhance it over time, or plan for a longer-term coastal vision.
The home is thoughtfully configured for relaxed coastal living. Downstairs offers two bedrooms, a bathroom and a generous rumpus room with kitchenette, opening onto a covered, enclosed verandah fitted with pull-down clear blinds. This sheltered space provides a practical extension of the living area, allowing enjoyment of the estuary outlook and natural light in most conditions, before connecting to level lawns that sit elevated above the estuary.

281 Cove Road, Waipu

There are homes, and then there are places that change the way you feel the moment you arrive. Positioned at the end of a private right of way with sweeping ocean and island views, 10 Solar Way is a beautifully crafted coastal retreat that rewards those who seek both privacy and presence &mdash; all just a short stroll from the golden sands of Langs Beach.
Set across two thoughtfully designed levels and approximately 199 sq m, this is a home built for living well. All-day northern sun floods the interior, and the elevated aspect ensures the view is yours from nearly every room &mdash; a shifting canvas of sea, sky and island silhouettes.
Upstairs, three generous bedrooms offer peaceful refuge from the world. The master suite is a standout: a walk-through wardrobe flows into a beautifully tiled ensuite, while expansive bi-fold windows frame the ocean horizon &mdash; a view you&#039;ll never tire of waking up to.
Downstairs, the open-plan kitchen, living and dining area is where this home truly comes alive. Rustic oak ply cabinetry, a natural white marble splashback and striking black granite benchtop give the kitchen a warm, considered aesthetic that is as beautiful as it is functional. High stud ceilings lift the space, while thoughtfully positioned skylights draw in natural light throughout the day. The heart of the home flows seamlessly out to a covered rosewood hardwood deck &mdash; the perfect setting for long lunches, sundowners, or simply watching the tide change.
Outside, the home makes an equally strong impression. Hand-charred and oiled Siberian larch cladding gives 10 Solar Way a bold, distinctive character that is rare and genuinely striking. The grounds have been landscaped with future privacy in mind, maturing year by year into an even more sheltered haven. A single garage offers secure storage for all the gear that comes with an active coastal lifestyle, along with a large double concrete laundry tub that&#039;s as practical as it is welcome after a day on the beach.
From the doorstep, the path to Langs Beach and the scenic coastal track is just a short walk away &mdash; mornings made for exploring, afternoons made for soaking it all in.
This is a home that invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and embrace everything coastal living has to offer.

10 Solar Way, Langs Beach

Perched above Waipu Cove on just over a hectare of landscaped grounds, grazing and mature native bush, this is a home built the way few are anymore - precast concrete tilt-panel construction on a steel frame, engineered to shrug off the coastal climate, built to be handed down through generations. A home with concrete strength and an ocean soul.

Inside, the quality carries through. Negative-detailed ply ceilings lift the living spaces, while the clever two-level design with mezzanine family room captures light and view from every angle. Expansive glazing frames a panorama that genuinely stops people mid-sentence: the full sweep of Bream Bay, from Whangarei Heads across to Taranga and the Hen and Chickens Islands, with the surf line of Waipu Cove tracing the shore below.

Three bedrooms, a dedicated office, and a master suite with walk-in wardrobe and ensuite give the layout real flexibility, while the 
generous deck flows off the living areas - the natural spot for long summer evenings watching the light change over the water.  
The kitchen is tidy and perfectly functional as it stands, and here lies the opportunity: with the office sitting conveniently alongside, there's obvious potential to reimagine this corner of the home - think modern kitchen with scullery or butler's pantry - and add real value to a home that's solid to the core. Move in and enjoy it now, or put your own stamp on it over time; either way, the fundamentals are done and done well.

Outside is where the property works its quiet magic. Established, low-maintenance gardens wrap around the house, fruit trees dot the grounds, and the surrounding mature native bush keeps the air alive with birdsong. There is a genuine tranquillity here, the kind that makes visitors drop their shoulders the moment they step out of the car. Sheep graze the paddock, and a separate cabin offers options for guests, hobbies or a studio.

And then there's the beach. Roughly 2km from the ocean, with the Cove Road cycleway just down the road, it's an easy pedal to Waipu Cove - crowned NZ Herald's Best Beach two years running - or a scenic ride the other way into Waipu township for its cafés, shops and famous Scottish heritage.

Homes of this build quality, in this position, with this outlook, rarely come to market. Don't watch this one go to someone else -  call today to arrange your private viewing.

89 Cullen Road, Waipu Cove 

Directly opposite the pohutukawa-lined sands of Langs Beach, this modern and elegant home sits front row to one of Northland's most photographed stretches of coastline.

From the moment you sit down, the view is already there. White sand, blue water and the outer islands are framed through the living area, close enough to feel part of the room. Morning coffee comes with the changing colours of the bay; by evening, the same outlook takes on an entirely different mood as the light moves across the water.

Tinted stacker doors span the width of the living area, opening the home completely to the deck and allowing the coastal outlook to flow uninterrupted from the kitchen bench to the sea. Step outside and you're close enough to hear the waves - a constant reminder that Langs Beach is right across the road.

And what a beach it is.

Pohutukawa shade the beach, with swings and picnic tables for the younger ones, while the sheltered southern end of the bay offers easy access for boats, launched directly from the sand by tractor. Swim in the clear, sheltered waters, paddle along the shoreline, cast a line from the rocks or head out on the water, or simply find a quiet patch of sand, settle in with a good book and let the afternoon disappear. Summer days naturally unfold here, but the beauty of this location is that it doesn't switch off when the holiday season ends. It's just as appealing on a quiet Tuesday in June as it is with the whole family gathered for January.
Then there's the simplicity of the home itself.

This is a property that asks remarkably little of you - an increasingly rare quality for a beachfront home. Whether you're managing it from overseas, fitting it around a demanding career, running a busy family household, or simply don't want your holiday house to become another job, this is genuine lock-up-and-leave living. A small front lawn is the only garden to maintain; the remainder of the section is concrete, leaving no ride-on mower, extensive planting or weekend maintenance waiting for you.

Inside, the design is contemporary yet grounded in its coastal setting. Open-plan living and dining sit across polished concrete floors beneath a negative-detail plywood ceiling, while cedar and schist bring warmth and texture to the material palette. The master bedroom enjoys its own ensuite and walk-in wardrobe, while two further bedrooms share a beautifully tiled family bathroom and separate WC. A dedicated internal laundry completes the practical layout.

But ultimately, this home is about where you are.

Wake to the ocean. Walk across the road for a swim. Come home from the beach and leave the doors open to the sound of the waves. Entertain on the deck while the bay provides the backdrop.

Fall for it on the first walk-through - a beautifully considered beach home where the setting does most of the work, and the view never needs an introduction.
