The location is the best you can get. The property has a beautiful garden next to the coastline with access to the beach. The deck behind the house provides the luxury of eating diner while enjoying the sunset on the Whangarei Harbour. The Four Square is a 15 mn walk, and there are a couple of restaurants within a 5mn drive.
