some properties have a water view. this one gives you the water.
at 129 ridge road, wander through your own grounds to the edge of beautiful mahurangi harbour and slip a kayak into the water, cast a fishing line or head out for a morning swim. this is waterfront living that's not simply admired from a distance – it's there to be enjoyed.
set on over an acre in tightly held andersons bay, this beautifully reimagined 1911 character home is full of the warmth and personality that newer homes simply can't replicate.
original rimu detailing, polished kauri floors and a magnificent galleried staircase tell the story of the home's past, while thoughtful renovations have created a wonderfully relaxed residence for modern life.
with five bedrooms arranged across two levels, there is space for family and friends to spread out. soaring four-metre stud heights bring drama to the main living areas, while french doors open onto wraparound verandas, connecting the house with its gardens and harbour setting.
upstairs, the library and sunroom provide quiet places to retreat, while an expansive deck with outdoor fireplace creates an irresistible spot for long lunches, evening drinks and watching life on the water below.
summer has its own rhythm here. swim in the pool, wander down to the harbour, take the kayak out, fish for dinner, then gather around the outdoor fire as the sun disappears.
a separate building adds another layer, with three-car garaging, a substantial art studio/workspace and self-contained studio cottage, ideal for guests, extended family, creative pursuits or supplementary accommodation.
character. space. pool. guest accommodation. and your own connection to the mahurangi harbour.
this isn't simply a beautiful coastal home. it's a place where the harbour becomes part of everyday life.
come and experience it for yourself.
