🌊 A RARE WATERFRONT OPPORTUNITY – ONE TREE POINT

Looking for your own slice of prime waterfront paradise?

For what I believe is the first time, a modern, relatively new high spec home, has come to market on this stretch of waterfront at One Tree Point.

If you value privacy, a more natural outlook and a special waterfront setting, this property could have a real edge over the more man made canal lifestyle at Marsden Cove.

As a builder, I know there’s nothing quite like designing and building a home to suit yourself. But with building costs having risen considerably over the past 3–4 years, there’s also a lot to be said for buying a quality home that’s already been built.

You could potentially secure a high-spec waterfront home at a significant discount to the cost of recreating it today — without the time, decisions and uncertainty that come with a new build.

Sometimes the opportunity isn’t just in the property itself, but in the time and money you save getting there.

If waterfront living is on your wish list, this one is well worth a look over the long weekend.

It could be yours for summer holidays!!!

Property for sale on 13 Graham Street, One Tree Point. This is a Residential Property with 4 bedrooms,2 living rooms 2 bathrooms,2 car parks. Auction.

That view. 🌊

This is the outlook from 13 Graham Street, One Tree Point. It's a north-facing waterfront home I built in 2014, and it's now on the market.

Imagine this summer here: morning coffee looking out over the harbour, the boat ready to go in the high-stud garage, and long evenings with family on the deck. There's no build to wait for and no decisions to make. It's ready now.

As the builder, I can tell you this home was built with coastal living in mind, and it's been well cared for ever since.

🚤 High-stud garaging, 9.2m long with a 3.1m clear opening

Nine weeks until Christmas, and there's still time to make this your summer.

Designed around the light. Glass on both sides, doors that open to the deck, and the water right there.

This home was planned around how the light and the views move through the day.

Get the light right, and the whole home feels better.

🎄 Ten weeks to Christmas, and this home is ready to move straight into.

I built 13 Graham Street, One Tree Point back in 2014, and I still think it’s one of the best waterfront positions in Northland. North-facing, right on the water, with views across the harbour that never get old.

When you’ve built a home yourself, you know what’s behind the walls. This one was designed and built with the coast in mind: the layout, the finishes and the details that matter when you’re living beside the sea. It’s been well looked after and it’s ready for its next family.

Building new is something I love helping people do. But I’ll be honest, if you want waterfront living this summer, this is the shortcut. No section hunting, no consents, no build timeline. Just move in.
