Welcome to Taumata, a much-loved Gore Bay holiday home that captures the essence of classic New Zealand seaside living. Original in both features and feel, this sunny coastal retreat enjoys sweeping sea and shoreline outlooks and a feeling that instantly invites you to slow down and breathe.

Inside, the home offers two comfortable bedrooms and a warm, sociable living area with an open-plan layout that flows effortlessly onto a sunny veranda - the perfect spot to enjoy morning coffee, long lunches, or evenings watching the light change over the bay. Practical in form and function, yet undeniably charming, Taumata is a home designed to be lived in, loved, and shared.

Held by the original family for many happy years, this is a rare and genuine opportunity to purchase a property rich in memories, laughter, and timeless summer traditions. The quiet setting provides peace and privacy, while generous off-street parking, and a single garage with ample storage add everyday convenience.

Embrace all the area has to offer, including Cheviot township, which is only 8km away for all those necessary holiday supplies and offering more space to play including a golf course, bike options for everyone and walking tracks through the historic Cheviot Hills reserve.

Set in the special and iconic location of Gore Bay - a place renowned for its natural beauty, legendary surf, relaxed lifestyle, and unforgettable holidays - this is where memories are made and magic happens. Just 90 minutes' drive from northern Christchurch, Taumata is perfectly suited as a weekend escape, a cherished holiday base, or even a full-time coastal haven.

This is a special home, in a special place - ready for its next chapter.
