12 Cathedral Court, Hahei

Just 400 metres from the golden sands of Hahei Beach, this charming two-storey home is your invitation to endless family summers by the sea.

Tucked into a peaceful, flat site in the heart of Cathedral Court, it's the kind of place where kids ride bikes barefoot, fish and boogie boards lean against the garage, and long summer evenings are spent on the sun-drenched deck, sharing stories and sizzling sausages on the BBQ.

Inside, warm polished rimu floors set the tone for relaxed, easy living. There's room for the whole whānau and then some.

3 generous bedrooms with space for sleepy kids, sunburnt cousins, and the odd snoring grandparent

2 bathrooms , no morning queues after the beach

Detached double garage with loft, sleeps 6 and includes its own bathroom and laundry, ideal for guests, teens, or a quiet workspace away from the action

This home is much larger than it first appears, like a real-life TARDIS, with all the heart and character you'd hope for in a classic Kiwi beach house.

Whether it's your weekend escape, forever home, or a legacy for the next generation, this special spot is made for making memories.

Summer's calling. Are you ready to answer?
