Beautiful elevation allows you to live bathed in light and exposed to an ever-changing panorama of the Kaimai Ranges that hug the horizon, plus views over the Tauranga harbour and Mt Maunganui. All while you luxuriate in sunny seclusion at home.

The peace, privacy, safety, grazing, pines, gums, native and fruit trees may seem like bonuses when you live in a bright, sun-flooded home, enjoying spectacular sunsets, coastal outlook and even a view shaft to Mauao. Adding to the natural charm is the abundant birdlife — from the cheerful chatter of tūī and the playful flitting of fantails to the striking presence of kingfishers and the majestic, whooshing flight of the awesome kererū.

The distinctive and immaculately maintained board and batten and corrugated iron clad home oozes personality and practicality. Extremely generous open plan living with polished aggregate flooring boasts four bi-fold doors to deck along the northwest side, yet another to the eastern ‘morning sun’ deck. Live ‘inside out’ all summer, embrace connection with your environment in winter. Every bedroom faces the afternoon sun, three doubles lining up along the deck, the master suite privately at the end. There is ample storage throughout the home including a flexible study nook.

A solid fuel burner with wetback and solar panels heat water and solar also works the security gate to grounds with plenty of on-site parking, plus a double carport outside the garage. From flat lawn off the deck find paths through the shrub planted banks of an easy-care garden with citrus trees and vegetable plot.

Several sheds include a large lockable one in the garden, others for implement storage and hay near the run for chickens that would like to stay and lay. Enough land to graze a couple of beasts slopes both sides of the home’s generous plateau.

A country lifestyle with a ‘top of the world’ atmosphere at the top of a short rural road almost equidistant between Tauranga and Katikati. Local primary school handy, school buses stop one km away at bottom of road.
