3 The Anchorage Tutukaka, Whangarei District

There's something pretty special about having the Tutukaka Marina, cafes, restaurants and coastal lifestyle right across the road. Immaculately presented and incredibly spacious, 3 The Anchorage is a home designed to make the most of its sunny setting and everything this sought-after location has to offer.

Upstairs is the heart of the home, where expansive glazing and large sliding doors fill the open-plan kitchen, dining and living area with natural light and make the most of the sunny aspect. The generous kitchen creates a natural hub for family and friends, while the living spaces open effortlessly onto the sun-soaked deck with views of the marina and surrounds. With plenty of room to entertain and a pizza oven ready to fire up, it's a space made for long lunches, summer evenings and easy coastal living.

Also on this level is a large study that provides the flexibility of a fourth bedroom or additional guest space, with provision for shutters to close it off when needed. An additional WC upstairs makes this level even more practical for both everyday living and entertaining.

Downstairs, three generous bedrooms include the master with ensuite, alongside a family bathroom with spa bath and separate shower.

Beautifully maintained throughout, the home has recently benefited from its solid timber flooring being refurbished, along with interior and exterior painting, leaving very little to do but move in and enjoy. Double internal-access garaging, excellent storage, additional parking for the boat or motorhome and a dedicated fish filleting bench make it perfectly set up for life by the coast.

Spacious enough for family living yet easy enough to lock up and leave, 3 The Anchorage offers the best of both worlds, with the marina and everything Tutukaka has to offer right on your doorstep.
