Matua Elegance - With a Long Term View...

There's a delightful wrap-around feel of residential style and comfort driving through Ranui St, in Matua. Part of that feeling comes from the fine collection of character and architectural home styles and their attractive garden settings, adding to the tranquility of the tree clad environment.

This popular part of Matua is well known for its share of up market luxury homes, lavish executive properties and outstanding Harbour views. These awesome properties provide an excellent opportunity for retirement seekers and families to find a niche in very fine style but unfortunately rarely come to the market, with most owners, once having secured a property in this sort after location, reluctant to let it go.

One such impressive residence that has become available, is attracting keen buyer attention due to its waterfront location and large 404m2 design, is at 42 Ranui St.
The charm of the residence is its practical room layout for convenience, comfort, and architectural design, which opens up as much of the interior as possible to the harbour views and expansive lawns.

The real jewel in the crown of this property is that it commands one of the dress circle locations overlooking the harbour. The panorama opening up from this site spreads across the harbour, past Matakana and the Mount and on to Mayor Island.

For the owners, there is the added appeal of having the harbour edge with walk and cycle track directly below. At low tide there is the appeal of beach walks to Fergusson Park. At high tide there is sufficient depth to launch a light dinghy or to set off on a sail board.

The double level dwelling is a contemporary design family home with open plan living of lounge, kitchen and dining, office, huge guest room and ensuite sharing the ground floor with a very generously sized double garage workshop. The living areas open freely to a the patio and the grounds, which are a natural enticement for outdoor dining and recreation. The best of the northern harbour views are enjoyed from both levels of the home.

One of the highlights of the interior is the grand entry foyer which is dominated by a beautiful curving staircase. The theme of modern vibrant décor continues upstairs to the upper living room with kitchenette and large balcony. The master bedroom, en suite and walk in wardrobe occupy pride of position as does the second guest bedroom and separate bathroom.

The front lawns with their panoramic harbour views are a major asset, that would provide as much enjoyment for young families as they would for retirement owners with time and the desire to sit back and enjoy the change in harbour scenery, by day and night.

For owners looking for a property with charm and elegance together with unsurpassed harbour views in one of Tauranga's most preferred locations, then viewing this property is a must.
