La Casa de la Playa - Waikanae Beach Holiday Home | House in Waikanae Beach
3 Bedroom House in Waikanae, Waikanae Beach
Designed by renowned mid-20th century architect Ernst Plischke and lovingly held by the same family since the early 1960s, this unique holiday home blends timeless architectural character with modern comforts, creating a memorable coastal escape.
Perfectly positioned on the edge of the sand dunes, the property offers direct access to Waikanae Beach and is within easy walking distance of local favourites including Long Beach and Hey Coastie restaurants and bars, the Olde Beach French Bakery, Hendrix Café, local stores, the Waikanae Boating Club, playgrounds, a pétanque court, free tennis courts, and basketball hoops. Waikanae Golf Club is just a 15-minute walk away, while the celebrated Paraparaumu Beach Golf Club, Nga Manu Nature Reserve, local art studios, and regular train services to Wellington are all easily accessible.
Inside, the home is bright, welcoming, and designed for flexible family living. The spacious master bedroom features a super-king bed that can be split into two single beds on request. Beyond a sliding hallway door, the sunroom with bunk beds connects to two additional bedrooms, separated by Plischke’s signature large sliding doors. These can be opened to create a spacious open-plan area or closed for added privacy.
The open-plan kitchen, dining, and living areas are filled with natural light and decorated in relaxed beach-inspired tones. The indoor dining table comfortably seats eight, while large doors open onto the paved courtyard and expansive beachfront lawn. The sunroom also opens directly to the outdoor dining area, where a generous table provides the perfect setting for long lunches and summer evenings overlooking the dunes and beach.
La Casa de la Playa is a paradise for water lovers, with plenty of room to park a boat and the Waikanae Boating Club boat ramp just 150 metres away. Guests can enjoy complimentary use of kayaks and boogie boards, while the well-stocked bookshelves and games cupboards provide entertainment for quieter moments. Set up a hammock in the sheltered garden and unwind with a book, or make the most of the spacious lawn with family cricket, pétanque, Kubb, and mini golf, with equipment provided.
A short drive away, Waikanae township offers galleries, boutiques, cafés, restaurants, a cinema, and the popular Saturday morning market. The home also includes brochures and suggestion cards featuring local recommendations, helping guests discover the very best of the Kapiti Coast.
