This 70s time-capsule is in need of a champion
A hand-built 70s Pauanui bach hits the market for the first time after more than 50 years.

AI summary
A unique 1970s Pauanui bach, hand-built by owner Ron Lacy in 1972, is on the market for the first time. This beloved family holiday home is a "time-capsule" in its original condition, offering panoramic estuary views and direct water access.
Ideal for boaties and mid-century design fans, the three-bedroom property sits on a 610m² section. The family hopes the new owner will cherish its unique character rather than redevelop the prime riverside site.
