Past Nostalgia, Future Potential

A cottage style homestead and a huge separate shed nestle in mature trees on an avocado orchard.

Tanglewood is tucked up a curving tree bordered drive which opens out to a wide lawn with a building each side. On one side is a chocolate box pretty three bedroom cottage style homestead covered in Virginia Creeper; on the other an extremely large shed which has done duty as a photographer's studio and workroom while its rear half has been extensive workshop space and its massive mezzanine used for storage. A lean to carport each side adds to cover for orchard and garden equipment. There is a fenced in ground pool beside the shed.

The home is quaintly comfortable with an air of faded glory accentuated by the original wall papers, attic ceilings and dormer windows upstairs and the French doors and sliders into the garden with every window giving up a green vignette of the beautiful mature trees that shield it. Two living rooms span the width of the home so you can move from morning sun to the warmth of afternoon rays.

The avocado trees spread out beside and behind the home and shed providing one a source of income. There could be several more on this beguiling property with a lot of promise. It would respond well to some tender loving care to retain and capitalise on its essential charm. The home could accommodate guests if desired or become a 'home and hearth' family base. The 'super shed' has its most attractive side to the garden and has been home to a business for a very long time. The space and configuration could lend to a myriad of business ventures or become a creative studio par excellence, perhaps for a sculptor or potter or similar 'heavy duty' artist.

Tanglewood turns off the main highway a couple of hundred metres from Te Puna village and is only ten minutes from Tauranga city. The high traffic count (not that you hear it from home at all) will be beneficial if you plan to promote an enterprise.

Location:
Few regions in New Zealand or the world for that matter have as much to offer as the Bay of Plenty. From the gentle harbour waters to its surf beaches, its fishing and diving grounds to the scenic bush, the Bay is as much a quiet recreational playground as it is a thriving business and rural community.
Key economic elements for the region include Tourism, Horticulture (predominately Kiwifruit and Avocado production), Viticulture, Pastoral farming, Forestry, Housing and Holiday Makers. The rapid growth in the area provides a vibrant living environment from job opportunities to business prospects with a sustainable future.
Tauranga as a city is one of the fastest, if not fastest growing cities in New Zealand. With a mixture of beautiful scenery, great beaches, cafes, restaurants and nightspots it is more than a city it is a lifestyle. The award winning schools also provide a key reason why Tauranga is proving to be such an attractive destination for both ex Kiwi's and migrants as a place to set up their new life in New Zealand.

JEREMY PRYOR Profile:

“Real estate is more about the relationships I build than the property I sell. This business is all about people and it is my aim to exceed the expectations of the people who place their trust in me.”
Jeremy Pryor has been exceeding expectations since he hit the ground running when he entered the real estate profession in 2004. He has committed himself to knowing his market and to providing an honest approach to meeting clients’ needs in an ever-changing real estate environment.

Jeremy has carved out a niche for himself as an enthusiastic straight-talking agent who gets the job done, and is not above having some fun. His reputation ensures nearly all his business comes from referrals and repeat clients.
Evidence of his success includes the highest awards both locally and nationally for his achievements in real estate and contributing to the accolades awarded to the team he worked with. However, it is the positive testimonials from his clients that he values most.
Jeremy Pryor sees the transition to Sotheby’s as the right step in an evolving career. “It is exciting to be part of the establishment of an international brand in the Bay of Plenty real estate scene, one that is bringing youth and energy to our environment, appreciating the way technology influences the way we do business today.
