Te Puna
Near New Home in Desirable Location
This 314m2 home was only finished just over a year ago, it is rare
to have such a modern home in this enviable location. Being set on
3760m2 (sts), on the edge of an avocado orchard there is mature
tree life all around all the while the owners have been hard at
work establishing the surrounding gardens. Schools, the water and
harbour access just down the road and Bethlehem only minutes away
these are some of the reasons this area has such a good
reputation.\n\n Property:\nThe vendors have owned
this land for nine years and established the surrounding orchard
into a top producer. It was a plan from early on to build a home on
this very spot and they have developed the property with this in
mind. Keeping the mature trees around the home is a real advantage,
providing shelter and protection from the elements and the road
while giving a new home an instant established feel.\nThe
substantial drive provides ample space for kids to play safely
while allowing friends and family to park and leave with ease. Upon
entering the home the modern feel continues with a warm colour
palate and welcoming atmosphere inviting you in. The home was the
vendors own design and is a compilation of their experience and
good ideas they have seen and enjoyed over time.\nThe use of wooden
flooring through the well used living areas provides a warm,
durable, yet appealing finish. The kitchen is the centre of the
living areas and sets the tone of the modern home. A 900cm gas
stove, stone bench tops, double width fridge/freezer, and an island
bench/breakfast bar gives you an appreciation of the standard of
this home.\nBeyond the kitchen is a relaxed family area which joins
the substantial decking area via large bi-fold doors to the rest of
the living. The double glazing through out the home is substantial,
making this home very well naturally lit while allowing flow to the
outdoors from pretty much everywhere. At one end of the open plan
living area is the formal dining while at the other is living
space. This boasts space and provision for a large flat screen and
surround sounds not to mention the gas fire with a heat transfer
system which heats the whole home.\nFrom this room you have direct
access to a large glass covered substantial deck area you can enjoy
out door living no matter the weather, and has direct access from
the master bedroom at the other end. You can see why this area is
so well used with spa, outdoor furniture and barbeque all
conveniently under cover. \nThe home boasts three generous bedrooms
plus an office which is size enough to be a fourth bedroom if
needed. The second and third bedrooms share a private bathroom and
there is a third toilet for guest purposes. The garaging completes
this considerate home with a 9m deep double garage boasting a
single roller door at the back with opener for the ride on or easy
access to your workshop space.\nThe home has been positioned to
provide space for a pool and a tennis court if you wish while being
set far enough off the road, traffic noise is not an
issue.\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.\nTe
Puna is 'the lifestyle area in Tauranga. Snodgrass Rd being close
to the water and having access to the harbour continues the appeal.
Only 15 minutes to the city and even less to Bethlehem while living
on a rural sanctuary surrounded by like minded people completes the
package that Te Puna has to offer.\n\nIn Brief:\n
