COMING SOON
Escape the city and immerse yourself in native birdsong, lush rainforest and the golden sands of Cornwallis Beach. Cornwallis is one of Auckland’s most treasured pockets, where homes seldom reach the market, and when they do, they are quickly cherished by those lucky enough to secure them.
Welcome to Fantail Cottage, a warm and beautifully maintained character home that radiates a sunbaked feeling of comfort and homeliness. This delightful two-bedroom retreat offers relaxed open-plan living that flows out to an elevated deck for a sunrise breakfast, or the brick courtyard for afternoon sunshine and alfresco, evening dining. Soak in leafy vistas, enjoy a charming water view, and spectacular sunrises over the Harbour.
The garden is a sanctuary. Generous in scale and filled with an array of flowers, plants and a raised vegetable bed, it has been lovingly tended by a garden-proud owner. For those with creativity or vision, the space offers exciting potential and the opportunity to build a second dwelling with the appropriate consents.
Downstairs, your eyes open to a large, light, quiet, work-from-home studio or rumpus area, providing a creative space for artists, craftsman, writers, counsellors, or physical therapy practitioners. The property also includes a single garage and ample off-street parking.
But, it is the lifestyle that sets Fantail Cottage apart. Begin your day swimming in the Manukau Harbour, wander the wharf at sunset, fish with locals and enjoy the serene songs of native birds throughout the rainforest. Live in a community that cares about each other sharing eggs, fish, baking, plants and fruit. This lifestyle balances serenity with practicality, giving you the best of both worlds. Cornwallis is a coastal escape to replenish your soul.
Whether you are searching for the perfect bach, a peaceful, lifestyle retreat, or a home that sparks creativity, Fantail Cottage at Cornwallis offers something rarely found. With its character, personality, and unmatched proximity to the beach, this is a chance to secure a property that will be treasured for years to come.
Romantic, restorative and deeply special. Your Cornwallis story begins here. Opportunities like this are truly fleeting.
