Flexible Beachside Living

About This Property

Affordable beachside living. After 46 happy years here, the family is ready to hand on this vintage haven, where sunshine, birdsong and flexibility abound.

Everything about this magical hideaway close to the beach, in a sheltered sweet spot between Raumati Village and Paraparaumu's shops, will surprise and delight you.

Built for a broadcasting icon in the 1960s, it's been ingeniously renovated to combine a predominantly double-glazed three-bedroom house with a generous, ground-floor self-contained granny flat for the ultimate in lifestyle versatility. The options are endless: use the modern flat for extended family members who want to live independently, treat guests to a grand bedroom suite with their own lounge, bathroom and kitchenette, or reward yourself with a work-from-home retreat removed from the household.

All this is tucked away at the end of a secluded lane in a private, picturesque 987sqm* setting with a colourful cottage garden that makes it feel more countryside than seaside - complete with roses, plum trees, natives, tui and, even more apt, a bird of paradise.

Here you can captivate children's imagination in the fairy garden or chill out around the brazier on a summer's night after barbecuing the flounder you've dragged from the beach.

A swim is never far away, with the beach close by and the pool just beyond the back door.

Watch the kids splash about as you make lunch or dinner in the remodelled kitchen while a huge north-facing deck overlooking the garden provides an all-weather al fresco showcase - essentially an 'outside room' that can be accessed from the light-filled living/dining space on one side and the main bedroom on the other.

All the bedrooms have 'robes', the bathroom includes a separate bath and shower, and there's also a downstairs study with a built-in desk, plus a garage and carport.

After 46 years, the owners are relocating north; this is your chance to savour a relaxed beach vibe loved by generations. Be quick!

Rateable Value $1,040,000.

Deadline Sale Closing 1pm Tuesday, 1 December 2026 (not selling prior).
