48 Wainui Road, Raglan

Set right on the edge of Raglan's picturesque estuary, this rare waterfront property is an open invitation to live life your way. With its own private boat ramp and jetty, the water is quite literally at your feet - perfect for launching a dinghy, runabout, kayak, or paddleboard any time the mood strikes. Built over three levels, the home offers an adaptable layout that works as a relaxed holiday retreat, a permanent family residence, or a mix of both. Upstairs, the wraparound deck frames an ever-changing panorama - from the one-way bridge across to the walk bridge and shimmering town lights - and weather-protecting blinds mean you can enjoy the view in all seasons. Inside, the easy-flow spaces retain a welcoming, bach-like warmth, while allowing for privacy when guests or extended family come to stay. There's loads of opportunity to transform it into a full family home or simply embrace its laid-back bach vibe. The flat, fenced section makes outdoor living effortless. Set up the BBQ, spread out with lawn games, or simply watch the tide roll in from the shade. Safe swimming from the front lawn is a rarity in itself, and with space for 6+ vehicles, a large runabout, and even a campervan with 240w plug-in, there's room for every toy and visitor. Location here is unbeatable. A short paddle takes you into Raglan township for a coffee, or to the wharf for fresh fish and chips. Stroll to the airfield and the beach beyond, or wander across the road to the Food Department where you can enjoy the famous Raglan Roast coffee. Quirky, functional, and utterly memorable, this property is ready for its next chapter. Whether you're seeking weekend escapes, a base for adventures, or a front-row seat to Raglan's coastal magic, you'll find it here - and once you do, you won't want to leave.
