ID#490211 - Kawaha Point, Rotorua

Elevated for views, planted for beauty - this character filled, one-of-a-kind home offers gracious living on the point.Once a larger estate that housed not only pool parties and celebrations but also a few sheep, today this rare treasure is set on a section that is still big by today's standards, a rambling 6.104m² (more or less) of beautiful park like grounds, with possible subdivision potential.

Bespoke gates at the entry frame the picturesque gardens and you are treated to a glimpse of a home that transports you back to an era of gracious architecture and charm. A character room with a feature window overlooks the garden and is well placed to see guests as they arrive - a great space for an office if you are working from home, also a lovely bedroom, guest or music room. Step into the living area with its grand lounge that flows to the dining space and a kitchen that captures the morning sun. The living rooms are wrapped by a large deck that provides an abundance of alfresco spaces positioned for sun, vista and some outlooks over the sparkling swimming pool. There's also a wonderful sense of freedom created by the indoor/outdoor blend.

Not only can family and guests stretch out in the lounge, there is also a second living area, a space that modern families may wish to transform into a media room. A reading nook nestles along the hallway. Of the four character bedrooms, the master is the largest and is set at its own corner of the home along with a wardrobe and ensuite. The master suite naturally enjoys lake views and steps out onto its own corner of the deck.

Below, the separately accessed bedroom & bathroom provides a welcome space for visitors. The property also comes with a double garage plus workshop/storage shed.

Born in Wellington I spent a good part of my adult life in Auckland where prior to Real Estate I owned and managed a painting and decorating company specializing in the restoration of old villas and bungalows in most of Aucklands exclusive suburbs.
I am married to Jacqueline who comes from Switzerland. Jacqueline is a Residential Sales Specialist in her own right. We have two young children. I also have a daughter currently living and working in Australia. Prior to settling in the beautiful Lakes District of Rotorua, Jacqueline and I married and lived for almost 3 years in Zurich, Switzerland. We moved to Rotorua in 1995.

People and houses have been the main focus of my previous occupation. Real Estate is all about people and I decided that a career in Real Estate would be a good move. Since then I've never looked back!

In June 2007 I was declared the overall winner 2006-07 for the Regional Real Estate Institute Award for the Waikato/Bay of Plenty and Gisborne District for residential sales with a population 20,001-70,000. The Real Estate Institute of New Zealand Award represents all Real Estate Companies and perhaps proves that bigger is not always better. We are all very hard working and never lose focus of achieving the best result for our homeowners.
