4 Bedroom House in Piha

In a prime spot over the road from Piha's dramatic surf beach, at the quieter north end, our beach-house started life 30 years ago, with architect brief: 'simple kiwi bach'.
We've improved and expanded it over the years, with our family, into a roomy, comfortable home-away-from-home, with large sunny decks and wonderful indoor/outdoor living, most mod-cons, yet still retaining some of the 'bachy' feel that we wanted.
We love our special place and our guests seem to agree, many coming back year after year.
Don't expect 5-star luxury, but instead enjoy a comfortable, clean & functional home with just about everything you want and need, including our recently renovated kitchen, new heat pump, fibre internet and smart TV.
We have a separate spacious sunny Studio (with en-suite bathroom) outside above the garage, ideal for a separate living/play area for older or younger family members. Or could be used, as I have done, as an office during lock-downs !
Our decks all around mean you can relax in the perfect sunny (or shady) spot, chill in the hammock, or spot tuis & kererus.
Our quiet North Piha location is worlds away from the south Piha summer crowds, sheltered by our pohutukawas from the west coast winds, spray and roar of the surf. We have some limited surf views downstairs, but prime spot is upstairs in the master bedroom, even from your pillow.
Enjoy the surf & beach straight across the road, year round bush walks, and hunkering down with wine, games and books around the fire in winter!
Easy access (2-3 mins walk) to North Piha Surf Club patrolled area for safe swimming.
Wonderful bush and spectacular cliff-top walks are close by - either into the bush up the Marawhara stream, or winding up Whites Track to the top of the cliffs above the house, and back down past Whites Beach.
Meals available locally at the Aryeh Restaurant, (check times), and dinners some evenings either at the Piha RSA, Piha Surf Club (South Piha) or Piha Bowling Club.
Special conditions:
NO PARTIES, WEDDINGS or other social gatherings please.
Extras: Cleaning (Required)

If that will be a problem for you, then let us know and we can provide linen for an additional charge.
NOTE (2): We have a remotely-accessible video camera monitoring the front deck, stairs and front of the main house, used for security purposes only

Summary: We selected this location based on proximity to family. The bonus was that is it located on our favorite beach area in New Zealand. The area is peaceful with access to the best hiking/walking trails and surfing in the area. This bach is very well appointed and was absolutely perfect for our family visit. Our daughter stayed in the unit above the garage so that she and our visiting granddaughter could have sleepovers and play Nintendo Switch all night :-) Communication with the host was outstanding. The host was very generous with his knowledge of the area and what was open/closed in the area due to slips from the last cyclone. We thoroughly enjoy the property and would not hesitate to visit again. Note for US visitors: screens don't exist in NZ. Buy bug spray on arrival or mosquitos/sand fleas (on the beach) will make a meal out of you. Also, respect the swim flags - the rip currents and dropoffs are not to be toyed with.

Summary: We enjoyed everything about Andrew’s property… wonderful deck, excellent location, private, enough space for our extended family. We are American but our Kiwi son in law told us it was very “Piha Bach” like and that’s what he loves after growing up in Auckland. Also the barbecue worked great with a little cleaning! Thank you Andrew! Memorable time.

Summary: I stayed at Andrew’s place in Piha for three weeks and loved it. He was very consistent with answering any questions I had and had amazing communication. Andrew left me a nice note and gift upon arrival since I was a long stay. The house was very clean and beautiful. The view from the house is incredible and very close access to the beach. This was my first trip to New Zealand from the US and I would definitely use Andrew’s place again if I travelled back.
