Your Wonderful World on the Tauranga Waterfront

Love life on the Tauranga waterfront in a sunny north west facing home at the top of a 1384sqm (approx.) section sloping easily to the sea.

This waterfront property is much more than a sprawling spacious home packed with personality and the odd quirk, much more than the daily (and nightly) delight of 180-degree everchanging views, more than the party sized deck that opens out into the environment. So much pleasure to be derived from the site that drops gently to the water, level by level. Vegetable gardens and citrus trees flourish in the microclimate, a grove of fruit trees on the bank, Nikau palms and succulents framing wide shady steps down to the big flat plateau by the estuary. Here, the lockable storage shed and boat port with 12-volt power prove the perfect launchpad for your water-based recreation, be it frolicking in the shallows of the tidal waters, fishing, paddling your kayak or board, or a spin in the boat launched from your own ramp - Mount Maunganui a mere 15 minutes by sea.

Embrace a versatile 316sqm (approx.) five bedroom, three bathroom home that invites hosting, entertaining, large families, couples whose grandchildren will love to stay. Built in the 1980s with interesting architectural features like the conservatory ceiling that floods the entrance and stairwell in light and a layout which exposes almost every room to the views. There's loads of living spilling to a massive deck complete with louvre covered dining space, a pizza oven and spa pool for soaking with the stars and city lights. The kitchen was upgraded recently to include everything you expect in a comprehensive contemporary space. There's also an additional work area which was created for large scale catering. Bathrooms have undergone a refresh. The fifth bedroom and third bathroom form a private suite ideal for invited, or perhaps paying, guests.

So much scope and so much to enjoy, certainly more than meets the eye initially - right here in your waterfront world.
