A New Zealand (nz) coastal lifestyle property for sale

Map of new Zealand All over the world, coastal property is the most desirable (and therefore "premium") real estate. This is particularly true of New Zealand (nz), a beautiful, sparsely populated and politically stable country in the South Pacific. We have set up this site to sell our coastal property directly without any intermediary, i.e. a private sale. Potential buyers may be current New Zealand residents, expatriates planning their return home, immigrants or those seeking a "trophy" investment/lifestyle block. Overseas buyers have the advantage of a favourable exchange rate.

Location:

Situated 6 kms south of Motueka on state highway 6 at Mariri, it is currently a pipfruit orchard with all production exported. The arrow on the map of New Zealand points to the property's location. Below is the plan of the property deposited with LINZ (Land Information New Zealand). North is towards the top and the measurements are in metres. This dates from 1974 and is prior to realignment of the coastal highway.
