### A new family home just a few steps from the beach

A family Bach close to Tata Beach in Pohara  
  
Piwakawaka Haven is a new home perfect for a family or small group getaway.  
  
The property offers three bedrooms and two bathroom, sleeping up to 6 guests. The open plan living and kitchen is comfortable and functional with all you are likely to need.  
  
The large sliders in the lounge give wonderful indoor outdoor flow, allowing you to enjoy the large sunny deck. With nearly all day sun, it is a great spot to park up and watch the day go by.   
  
The kids are well catered for with a large fully fenced garden and the beach just a few steps away.  
  
The bedrooms are all a good size with storage. The master and second bedrooms enjoy sea views and the master is complete with a large, modern ensuite.  
  
Pohara is a very popular destination for families, with the beach close by and safe swimming it really is the perfect getaway. We hope to see you soon at Piwakawaka Haven.
