Riverside classic with stories tucked into every weatherboard. Perched above the Whangarei Harbour on a spacious 696sqm section, this is the kind of place where families come together, teenagers finally get that dream retreat, and parents or grandparents stay close without crowding anyone's vibe.
Back in the 90s it served as a youth hostel, a hive of laughter and late-night yarns. Long before that, it was one of Riverside's earliest homes. Today, it's ready for a new chapter - maybe yours.
Inside, there's space for everyone: 6 bedrooms. 2 bathrooms. 2 full kitchens.
Plenty of room for independence and connection - the sweetest blend for large families, blended whanau, or those bringing their parents home without compromising privacy. Investors will see the dual-income potential straight away, but families will feel the heartbeat of a place designed for people to gather.
And then there's the location. You're moments from the CBD. A short stroll from the marina. Cafés, restaurants, and the Loop track practically call your name each morning. From the deck, you'll watch the harbour shift with the light, and at night the city sparkles like it's putting on a show just for you.
