This 9,500mΒ² (STS) lifestyle property on one of the region's most popular and prestigious roads offers so much scope and potential to enhance. It is private and peaceful yet close to urban amenities and excellent schools. This is a place to run free and enjoy a life based on good kiwi family values, or an active retirement. An opportunity to update and capitalise on the retro vibe of the family home which spreads itself expansively along the sunniest aspect with generous linked living areas and wide patio overlooking the garden, the fenced inground pool and with outlook to Mauao and Mayor Island. The kitchen is prime for an upgrade and could easily be made more open plan with the two living areas. Bedrooms are light and sunny, a fifth or hobby room behind the garage. Bathrooms display some deliciously retro features. The environmentally friendly outdoors even sports frogs in the fish pond by the pool. Native birds flourish here. Children can play safely in the walled garden, frolic in the pool, go exploring in the established trees framing the home grounds. You can link walkways along the lower stream via the acre or so of grazing and go mountain biking in the local park down the road. A separate 66mΒ² (approx) shed offers options for running a home industry or trade business with the flat paddock beside it ideal for parking additional vehicles, planting, or building a tennis/volley ball court. A beautiful setting with huge potential to further enhance the home and this comprehensive couple of acres and to join a friendly community of high calibre properties.

Tauranga City is moving ever closer with the burgeoning growth of Pyes Pa which places you handy to local shops, one of NZ's largest urban shopping centres in development at Tauranga Crossing at The Lakes nearby.
