Paradise At Home

Indoor/outdoor living has real meaning on this lifestyle property in Tauranga.\n\nThis private solid block and solid timber home with six bedrooms feels like a lodge in paradise, but the amazing connection with the outdoors makes it a perfect place for a laid back lifestyle in the sunny Bay Of Plenty. \nThe front foyer opens up to an expansively flexible family living area and large kitchen spanning the north side of the home. The kitchen juts forward at the end of the covered area with windows opening front and side for easy passing snacks and drinks out to children playing in the pool! Sinks each side and masses of bench space ensure you can entertain equally easily inside and out, from this, the hub of a very social living space. \n\nThe kitchen and family room give easy access to a cosy lounge full of character with an open fire place or aircon for convenience.\nThe majestic family and dining room also with a gas fire place, has several French doors to large covered patio facing the resort style pool and spa which is surrounded by wide areas of paving and tropical palms with a gazebo on the far side. The property's hot water bore ensures you can economically heat the pools for year round use.\n\nThe large and adaptable home spreads itself over two levels with huge master suite and a lounge facing the wide upper balcony, and another bedroom under sky lights.\nThe master suite has 'his' and 'hers' walk in wardrobes and its own sky lit bathroom.\n\nThere are four more bedrooms below - two of them open outside, one to the front patio and the other (which is linked to the family bathroom) opens to a private side space. The foyer has access to an office and has doors to the casual living space and the formal lounge. Stairs take you down to massive garaging which is accessed via a drive up the side of the home where several vehicles can park on site.\n\nThe 3240m2 property includes a reserve like area of lush grass bordered by native and exotic trees and a home orchard. Enjoy paradise at home in the complete privacy offered by this established lifestyle enclave of Westridge so close to Tauranga CBD. Very convenient for access into the city, and to Mount Maunganui or to Bethlehem Town Centre and the main highways North and South.\n\nLocation\nFew regions in New Zealand or the world for that matter have as much to offer as the Bay of Plenty. From the gentle harbour waters to its surf beaches, its fishing and diving grounds to the scenic bush, the Bay is as much a quiet recreational playground as it is a thriving business and rural community.\nKey economic elements for the region include Tourism, Horticulture (predominately Kiwifruit and Avocado production), Viticulture, Pastoral farming, Forestry, Housing and Holiday Makers. The rapid growth in the area provides a vibrant living environment from job opportunities to business prospects with a sustainable future.\nTauranga as a city is one of the fastest, if not fastest growing cities in New Zealand. With a mixture of beautiful scenery, great beaches, cafes, restaurants and nightspots it is more than a city it is a lifestyle. The award winning schools also provide a key reason why Tauranga is proving to be such an attractive destination for both ex Kiwi's and migrants as a place to set up their new life in New Zealand.
