Spacious, Sunny and Social

An expansive property in a quiet premium location on one of Tauranga's most progressive areas. \nFreeburn Park is a peaceful lifestyle subdivision which has attracted large high quality homes to its large sites, this one at over an acre and a quarter is larger than most, part of it in trees down the rear bank which add to your sense of seclusion with a green outlook. \nThe home displays interesting features and has been constructed in weatherboard and plaster over brick with timber slats to add interest and punctuate the elevated features.\nInside, the exceptionally high stud creates living spaces which draw all day sun, merge socially and are so spacious the grandchildren have played football on the tiles without incident! When you find you have to install shade blinds to avoid waking wearing sunglasses, as these owners did when they moved into the, then new, architecturally designed home eight years ago, you definitely have a suntrap home! You will find your place in the sun no matter what the time of day inside and out. Relax on the patio on the morning sun side between the kitchen and master suite, or under the covered outdoor living accessed off both lounges in a large living space where there is room for a generation gap but also space to enjoy each other's company. One lounge flows easily off the kitchen and dining area, the other is nicely stepped down behind a dividing wall which holds the large gas fireplace. \nThe bedroom wing extends from the master suite to three more bedrooms, huge family bathroom and an office at the double garage end. A boat or small camper will fit easily in the carport and there is concealed parking for the motor home. Low maintenance semi tropical plantings enhance the dual driveway and lots of lawns and shrubs free you up to enjoy family and trips away.\nLocated close to reputable schools, including Aquinas College, this side of Tauranga is experiencing dramatic growth, none of which will impede your peace and privacy but it will make education, shopping and access to amenities even more convenient than it is now. \n\nLocation:\n\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.\n
