46 Heron Lane, Snells Beach, Rodney District, Auckland

Wake up to sunshine and the soft sounds of nature in this quintessential 1960s bach that has had only two owners since it was built. Described as 'the last house on the beach', this classic Kiwi bach offers the perfect antidote to city life.

This waterfront bach sits next to the reserve with immediate access to the water. Start your day paddleboarding in the tranquil waters of Snells Beach, or head to Omaha or Tawharanui for a surf after work. At low tide, kick back with a book, enjoy an afternoon nap, or take off in the boat for a spot of fishing.

The downstairs features an open-plan living, dining, and kitchen space with an induction hob, convection oven/microwave, and integrated dishwasher. A large laundry and bathroom are perfect for cleaning up after beach adventures. Upstairs, there are two adjoining bedrooms. The primary bedroom features large sliding glass doors that open to a balcony with stunning vistas over Kawau Bay. The bach and outdoor entertaining areas capture abundant sunshine, while surrounding bush and mature Pohutukawa trees provide privacy and attract native birdlife. A garden shed behind the bach offers convenient storage for beach and outdoor equipment.

The generous 1,459 sqm section (more or less) benefits from dual access. The site runs from the beachfront at Heron Lane through to Woodlands Avenue. The top of the site features a significant plateau of land, ideal for parking tractors, boats, or a camper. There is also a secure shed for all the toys and great water views. Further development potential for this very sheltered end of the site could be explored. A bush path links to the bach, or alternatively, you can use the nearby public walkway.

The location offers incredible convenience with a brand new Four Square, gym, cafes and amenities within walking distance. Character-filled Matakana, with its notable restaurants and cinema, is a short drive away, while the rapidly growing Warkworth town centre puts all essential services within easy reach.

This property has broad appeal, whether you're seeking a permanent residence in a thriving and welcoming community or a cherished second home to create family memories. Many residents choose to work from home in this idyllic setting, while others enjoy the convenience of the luxury commuter bus service with onboard wifi for the 50-minute journey to the city.

With a brand-new roof and fresh paint inside and out, this bach is ready for its new owners to enjoy. It's rare to find an opportunity like this. Make it yours.
