If you've been dreaming of a place by the sea where there's room to spread out, slow down and enjoy the simple things, 165 Beach Road could be just the spot. Set on over 3,200m2, this three-bedroom home offers plenty of space, potential and an easy coastal lifestyle. With the beach just a stone's throw away, you can start the day with a walk along the sand, head out for a fish or swim, then come home and enjoy all the room this generous property provides. There's plenty of space for the boat, vehicles, tents, family and friends, along with more than enough lawn for the kids to run around while the BBQ is fired up. Whether you're looking for a permanent home, a family holiday escape or somewhere to create your own slice of the coast, there's plenty here to work with. The location makes life easy too. The Te Puka Tavern is nearby, along with local schools, the Four Square and, of course, the fabulous local fish and chips and famous paua pie. The historic Tokomaru Bay wharf is another local landmark, while the friendly community and relaxed pace are all part of the appeal. And while it feels like a true coastal escape, Tokomaru Bay is approximately 1 hour 15 minutes from Gisborne along State Highway 35, making it achievable for weekends away or those wanting to make the move permanently. This is a place for sandy feet, fishing rods, long summer evenings and family gatherings. A property where you can settle in, add your own touches and create the kind of memories that only life by the coast can bring. Come and see why life is better by the sea.
