5 Mangatoetoe Grove, Cape Palliser, South Wairarapa

The time has come to up sticks! Grab your surfboard, walking stick, or bottle of rum and come and have a look at this one. Rarely do properties like this hit the market, in sleepy seaside settlements with a lighthouse around the corner and some seals for company. The property is nicely elevated and overlooks the village with spectacular views across to the Kaikouras - also making a great vantage point to keep an eye out for pirate invasions. Along with your weapon of choice you will also need a good selection of tools if you are that way inclined, otherwise bring your builder along for some advice. Either renovate or start with a clean slate, this property will be a memory maker either way. See you at the next open home, me hearties!

You're no doubt aware that properties rarely become available in this magic part of the world. And this isn't just any old property - this one's an absolute stunner which takes pride of place, overlooking the rustic yet charming coastal settlement that is Ngawi. Welcome to 17 Seaview Avenue, and what could become either your transition to a coastal retirement - or one hell of a family bach. Beautifully elevated, the views on offer are simply outstanding. The enormous sun-drenched deck is partially enclosed and gives you the option to screen off any unfavourable weather so you can enjoy year-round outdoor living. Not one, but two sleepouts give plenty of overflow accommodation so the entire family can come and enjoy everything that Ngawi has to offer. Two heat pumps and a log burner leave no shortage of heating options in the cooler months, and the modern kitchen is nicely completed with a brand new oven and induction hobs. A workshop and extensive garaging below mean there's ample room for the boat and toys. The property has its own water supply in the form of a well and a brand new pump has been connected. This really is a very special property and needs to be seen if the ocean has been calling of late. Summer's just around the corner - it could be the best one yet...
