195A Manly Street, Paraparaumu Beach, Kapiti Coast, Wellington, 5032, New Zealand

Tucked away down a drive among the sandy dunes, this beautiful beachfront home is a refreshing sanctuary, with a location that blends the best of Kapiti’s natural splendour with convenient, easy living.

195a Manly Street is in a truly envious location: boasting private beach access and just up the road from the Waikanae Estuary Scenic Reserve. There’s no shortage of beautiful spots on your doorstep, including pocket views of Kapiti Island from the privacy of the wind-sheltered garden.

With an interior inspired by a mid-century Californian aesthetic and a calm, natural exterior space, this is a home that deftly balances comfort, modern style, and timeless coastal charm.

The property has been thoroughly renovated to a fantastic standard with new flooring, larch cladding, roof, guttering, deck, paint, upgraded kitchen, and bathroom – it’s probably easier to list what’s not new!

The flow between the indoor and outdoor areas is airy and effortless, with plenty of space inside and out for family gatherings, entertaining guests, or camping on the lawn – there’s even a hot outdoor shower to wash off the sand and seawater after a dip or relax in the near new spa.

In the summer, the deck and louvered pergola offer ideal spots for a barbecue or soaking up the exceptional afternoon sunshine, alongside planter boxes for the green-fingered to get stuck in. In the winter, full double glazing throughout the house and a heat pump ensure you stay cosy and warm.

This fully fenced home is the perfect “lock and leave”, great as a weekender, Airbnb, permanent home, or further development potential to create your dream coastal home.

So if you love being near the beach, having incredible access to local shops, cafes, and the award-winning 50-50 restaurant, and want to fall asleep to the waves crashing, 195a Manly Street is a must-see.
