19 Edith Ridge Road, Kawau Island, Rodney, Auckland

The first time you discover this gorgeous property, your hand will rest on your heart! Located in the upper reaches of stunning South Cove, this sunny, sheltered, north-facing and totally private parcel of land sprawls out over 7707m2, the largest section in South Cove. An exclusive elevated position with beach access where you can launch your own boat and overlook one of Kawau's most outstanding views.

Long loved, the family holiday home basks peacefully in the sun. As with many Kiwi bachs, this gem has grown over time and been well maintained over the years. Showcasing light-filled interiors throughout, the main house offers 2 bedrooms, a bathroom and comfortable main living complete with a cosy fire for winter. A spacious open plan kitchen flows to a wonderful all-weather alfresco barbeque /dining area taking in those sensational views. A second detached cabin provides for either a third bedroom, or the overflow of family and friends. The property will be sold furnished and ready-to-go, including a car to get you up and down to the wharf.

After a day on the water fishing and diving, relax on the outside deck overlooking the cove with a glass of wine and the BBQ fired up as the children happily frolic about on the lawns or play safely down at the beach.

To get there, you can travel by the Kawau Ferry service or water taxi to the South Cove public wharf, then by road to the property. Alternatively, you can come over in your own boat around high tide, pull up to the beach just down the way and walk a few minutes up the fern fringed track through reserve below.

Just a 40-minute drive from the buzz of Auckland to Sandspit, and a quick 15-minute boat ride across to the island. Kawau Island is a mecca for those who love the water, and it offers some of the best fishing in the world. Opportunities for this location are rare so do not delay your enquiry. I'd be delighted to share this property with you, just pick up the phone and call Debbie on 021 406967.
