"In addition to an excellent income, the future owner will also have the right of use of one chalet for four weeks of the year," Crawford says.
"It is an appealing property with 31 well-appointed spacious units set amidst lush vegetation on the shores of the scenic Tairua Harbour. It has a mix of units with the majority having water views."
The 5199sq m is on one title and the accommodation comprises 23 studio units, six one-bedroom units and two two-bedroom units. Four units are in the manager's building three on the lower level and one on the upper level.
Eight units are in a double-storey block with the remainder standalone units dispersed throughout the property. All upper level units have external access stairs.
Crawford says the units have been soundly constructed and designed with a Polynesian theme - incorporating timber sarked ceilings and linings. "They have also been well maintained."
The units feature a variety of amenities from basic tea and coffee-making facilities to full kitchens. The bathrooms, with separate hot water cylinders, contain showers, vanity sets and toilets. Most units have ranch-slider access to deck and paved areas from the lounge area.
Crawford says the property has a frontage of 116m to the inner Tairua Harbour, which makes for a pleasant backdrop.
"The overall theme is that of a Polynesian-styled village with the grounds attractively laid out with extensive coverings of shells and paved access leading to the main reception area and various units. Established gardens create privacy and the whole development is located within a beautiful natural setting that has a tropical theme. A reserve area adjacent to the foreshore gives the appearance of forming part of the property and provides additional space for relaxation."
He says the reception area is spacious and includes a lounge, toilet, ancillary storage rooms, internal garage access and an internal stairway up to the manager's residence which has three bedrooms, bathroom and toilet, a lounge and dining area, and a spacious balcony with nice views. External stairs also provide access to the manager's unit.
Onsite is a Visitor Information Centre, which provides some rental income.
Essential services include electricity, sewerage, town water supply and a water bore.
Crawford says Pacific Harbour Lodge is strategically located on State Highway 25 in a prime position, on the main road into the Coromandel Peninsula.
"It is very popular with international and domestic visitors. It is the largest accommodation provider on the Coromandel Peninsula and can comfortably accommodate coach tours.
"Pauanui is only a ferry ride across the harbour and it is a short drive to the famous tourist attractions of Hot Water Beach and Cathedral Cove, which was the film location for the 2008 movie The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian. It is an excellent base to explore the east coast of the Coromandel Peninsula."
The lodge is just 50m from the centre of Tairua township, which is only minutes away from interesting bush and kauri grove walks, historic gold mines and tunnels inhabited by glow worms. "Tairua is a delightful laid-back coastal town with all the amenities visitors require, including cafes, restaurants, takeaway outlets, bakery, chemists, gifts and art galleries," Crawford says. "Further growth is predicted with the opening this year of the 95-berth Tairua Marina."
