A contemporary country lifestyle near a quality rural school creates contentment without commitment.\n\nGive your children a wonderful start in life moving to the country where they can experience quality education at the (decile 10) Omokoroa Number One School. Give family a wonderful life on a lifestyle block perfectly sized for contentment without commitment. Drive onto your private promontory above the estuary, with plenty of parking, farm style garage with an attached office or studio, plus a carport right outside the door. \n\nGraze a few stock or the pony in the paddocks or home orchard, keep chickens in the corner. Let the kids play on big open lawn; enjoy enough garden to pick veges and put flowers on the table.\n \nRelish life in a home with a sense of place where rural references merge and juxtapose with a stunning central living pavilion with floor to ceiling stackers to wide decks with a solar heated spa in the corner, steps lining the lawn and a sheltered corner with outdoor fireplace where paddock abuts the home.\n\nFlair and careful consideration has resulted in interior design where industrial edge meets warmth and comfort with a layout for real family life. A gorgeous parental haven is tucked above the living area. A four bedroom wing extends one side with bedrooms (all with built in furniture and homework nooks) and a guest suite off a hall wide enough for bowling balls. Cavity sliders access a media room beside the main living area. At the rear of the pavilion the kitchen and scullery melds social side and highly efficient work space with a mix of granite and timber - facing side doors to a second outdoor living space soaking up afternoon sun. All three bathrooms, large powder room and the laundry display verve and practicality - Oregon floors, slatted showers, deep Cleopatra bath. \n\nThis is a contemporary home for relaxed country living, packed with clever features, yet emanating ease and welcome. It all seems so right when you see it, yet you won't find another like it! You'll love the location so handy to the city, via a series of satellite villages and opportunities for eating and local shopping. The quality of the school is evidence of a community that contributes and cares.\n\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
