96 Manu Drive Kaiwaka, Kaipara District

Are you seeking a unique, versatile, durable, and habitable shed in a waterfront location? If so, you need to check this out!

96 Manu Drive sits on a gently sloping, north-facing, 2.0330-hectare parcel with lake frontage and excellent lake and harbour views from the main shed house. Featuring two well-appointed bedrooms, this home is ideal for small families or those looking to downsize without compromising on space.

A boatie's dream, the property includes access to a sought-after all-tide boat ramp within the prestigious Takahoa Bay Coastal Estate, located just an hour's drive from Auckland. Enjoy a serene coastal peninsula lifestyle, whether as a holiday retreat or a permanent country home. Estate amenities include a tennis court, olive grove, walking trails, picnic areas, woodlots, a working farm, and the boat ramp.

Constructed by Shed Boss with colour steel, the building features a 5.2-metre-high stud and double roller doors within the shed/workshop component. The remainder of the building houses a unique two-bedroom dwelling with an open-plan kitchen, dining, and lounge area, plus a laundry and bathroom.

Downstairs living wraps around a wide central staircase leading to two generous mezzanine-level bedrooms with sunrise-to-sunset views. Two triple-stacking doors with insect screens open to the grounds and vista from the living areas. The bathroom (featuring a full bath and super-sized shower) and laundry are cleverly positioned behind one of the workshop bays.

The property offers excellent infrastructure, including 3-phase power, a Waterflow wastewater system, and three large concrete water tanks with a submersible pump. The land is mainly pasture with a naturally filled pond, alongside various plantings including fruit trees, banana palms, and Mexican sunflower plants.

Whether a boat owner, artisan craftsman, "Tradie" or a tinkerer, the shed /workshop component may well be the main fare with the home being desert!

Located in a tranquil setting, this lifestyle property is a rare find and is priced at $985,000.
