49 Tarapatiki Drive, Whitianga, Thames-Coromandel

Stunning sea views and motivated vendors

Perched high above Whitianga, with views of the Bay and backdropped by your own mature native bush, this energy efficient home with double glazing is a must view. Having owned this land for 23 years and built the home 16 years ago, the owners have meticulously maintained and cared for property, however, now is the time to move closer to family and allow another family to enjoy for many more years.
The front of the home takes full advantage of the ocean view via multiple sliding and bifold doors opening to substantial decking. Back inside, the spacious lounge area has a study nook that allows you to work from home yet can be closed off and hidden away when guests come to visit. There is also a vast built-in shelving unit for all your books, wine, and vinyl collection. And to top it off, a central gas fireplace to keep you cosy and warm on those winter nights.
Off the dining space you have the large central kitchen and TV room with doors out to a patio area, giving you a quiet place to sit and have your morning coffee whilst you listen to the native bird song of the tui's or watch the quail & kereru. From here you can meander down the boardwalk through your own peaceful mature bush wilderness. Off the wide hallway you have the master bedroom with walk through robe and full ensuite with double vanity and spa bath and two good sized bedrooms. One of the bedrooms with a sliding door out to its own private deck, taking in views of the Bay, the other with a door out to a courtyard. Both bedrooms sharing access to a spacious Jack and Jill bathroom. There is also a powder room and laundry off the hall. Downstairs you have the large double garage with attached workshop/hobby room.
While the home is connected to the power grid, the 18 panel solar system provides substantial savings on your power bills. Any excess power produced goes back into the grid, giving the owner credits. There is also a separate solar unit for hot water heating. Other great features of the property include underfloor heating via heat pump in the polished concrete areas (with separate thermostats for each area), the top level of home wheelchair accessible throughout, and plenty of lawn space to plant your own substantial orchard. And for the kids, a Petanque Court and Hobbit House complete with furniture.
Viewings welcomed by appointment.
