Living large with a small footprint

Location In popular Whakamarama 15 minutes from Tauranga city. Good local school.
Property Rural lifestyle with land dropping gently from elevated platform of home grounds.
Dwelling: 358m2 four- bedroom (plus office or 5th b/r) home with expansive open plan living, separate lounge, big 'mudroom'/ rumpus. Detached three-bay garage approx. 80m2.
Land: Approx. one hectare (subject to final survey and title) surrounded by farmland.

Good morning sunshine, good-bye electricity bills!

Live in a private rural setting with expansive views north to Mount, harbour and ocean, equally beautiful to the east where countryside rolls in a green patchwork.

This bespoke home was built two years ago (completed Feb 2016) by multi award winning Master Builders, Belco Homes. It has been designed so you can live completely off grid with eco features considered while making no compromise on style and contemporary convenience.

The very spacious home draws maximum light and sunshine and incorporates a professionally designed and installed solar power system (with back-up generator) and rainwater catchment to the 30,000-litre tank. The 20 strategically placed solar panels (forming the north sloping roof of a useful shed) and the control panel and 24 batteries at the end of the three-bay garage are the only indications this is a solar powered home.

Appliances include a Parmco gas oven and hobs plus a log burning range cooker and oven (ducting warm air to the bedrooms) which comes into its own in winter.

The English farmhouse style home occupies the large elevated plateau of its one hectare (subject to final survey and title) which slopes gently at the front and sides, protecting those glorious views, and is bordered by acres of countryside. The home orchard was recently planted and there is facility for some grazing.

The home fans off a large foyer and combines polished concrete flooring in main living and halls with carpet in lounge and bedrooms. A raked ceiling enhances the airy atmosphere of open plan living which embraces the sunshine and outlook and takes you out via sliding glass doors on three sides. It shares its east deck with an adjoining lounge.

The master suite occupies the east wing while large family bedrooms (respecting the teenage desire for a bedroom to be a genuine retreat, especially the attic room with velux windows), are on the west side. The massive laundry links a versatile space which can do duty as garaging for a small car, and/or gym, rumpus room, mud room and dogs' bedroom.

Wonderful country living for a family with plenty of space for pets, grounds which can be kept simple or become the canvas for a keen gardener, and the peace of mind that comes from living large with a small footprint.

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. His expertise has been applied to the sale of farms, orchards, lifestyle and urban residential properties, many in the prestigious premium sector.
The Pryor family live on a lifestyle block in Pyes Pa in a home they had built themselves. “My family – my wife Jacky, my sons Finn and Ashley and my daughter Charli – is the reason I strive to be the best agent I can.”
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. Having a stake in the company further increases my desire to succeed, for my clients, for my family and for Sotheby’s.”
