25 Gunbar Drive

The House Is Only Part of the Story

Some properties are all about the house. Here, it's the house, the gardens, the extra spaces and the freedom to enjoy a little more of life.
Set on approximately 5,121sqm of established, landscaped grounds in Welcome Bay, 25 Gunbar Drive offers a lifestyle that's becoming harder to find so close to Tauranga. There's room to spread out, space to enjoy the outdoors and a home with plenty of character and flexibility for the way you want to live.
The main living area makes an immediate impression, with cathedral ceilings, skylights and warm macrocarpa timber lining giving it a distinctive feel. The well-appointed kitchen features stone benchtops, two ovens and gas cooking, while the glass-enclosed conservatory provides a lovely spot to sit back and enjoy the garden outlook throughout the year. From here, the living areas flow onto the deck, creating an easy connection between indoors and out.
Upstairs, the generous master suite includes a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite, alongside two further bedrooms, one currently used as a home office. With bedrooms opening directly onto the deck, there's a lovely opportunity to start the day surrounded by greenery and enjoy the peaceful setting.
Downstairs brings another dimension to the property. With a large open-plan area, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom, it offers options for extended family, guests, a boarder or those wanting extra room for hobbies and working from home, subject to any required approvals. It also gives you the flexibility to adapt the space as your needs change.
And then there's the extra space beyond the main house. A double garage/workshop and an additional single garage provide plenty of room for vehicles, tools and projects. Further down the property, the barn offers a separate, versatile space that could suit creative pursuits, a studio, workshop or personal retreat, subject to any necessary approvals.
Outside is where the lifestyle really comes into its own. The established gardens, mature planting and generous grounds give you room to potter in the garden, entertain family and friends, find a quiet corner to relax or simply enjoy having more space around you. There's also scope to make the grounds your own over time, whether that's adding new garden areas or exploring the possibility of a pool, subject to suitability and any required approvals.
Practical features haven't been forgotten, with 15 solar panels, shared community bore water, fibre internet, CCTV security, underfloor heating in the ensuite and a Husqvarna zero-turn ride-on mower adding to the appeal.
What makes this property different is the combination of a substantial home, established outdoor surroundings and a range of spaces that can serve different purposes over time. Whether you're looking for room for a larger family, space to work on your own projects or simply a property where you can enjoy being at home a little more, there's plenty here to explore.
All this in Welcome Bay, where you can enjoy a sense of space and separation from the everyday while remaining within easy reach of Tauranga's amenities.
