Conveniently situated on the main road heading east from the Matakana township toward Mathesons Bay, Leigh, Goat Island Marine Reserve and Pakiri, this fully renovated kiwi bach is perfect for family holiday accommodation, overseas guest accommodation, special occasions, weekday retreats and weekend getaways.
Located just one hour north of Auckland City, the bach has three bedrooms, one bathroom, open plan living/kitchen/dining and some great outdoor living areas including a north facing deck that spills out onto the front lawn. The estuary flows under a small bridge through to Whangateau Harbour across the road which can be accessed by kayak (And yes there is 2x kayaks available for use under the deck including life jackets).
The 3 bedrooms have new queen sized beds plus three spare mattresses which can go on the floor.
Take this great opportunity to get north of Auckland to one of New Zealand's best most accessible holiday spots.
