Complete Contemporary Country Living

Mention Joyce Road to anyone who admires lifestyle properties and it sparks immediate attention as to the address. This property combines dream rural living and secluded backdrop with enchanting views and lifestyle to match\n Property:\nTennis day or night, thanks to a floodlit court; swimming all year round thanks to a heated pool - al fresco dining any time, thanks to numerous outdoor nooks and sheltered settings. This outdoor flow is a significant element - smart design following the classic simplicity of an Y-shape layout, with modern-day flair ensuring natural light is an essential aspect. It's 354 square metres of contemporary styling - Colorsteel construction instilling rustic practicality with an air of timeless elegance. Coloured concrete - cut and sealed in slab-like finish introduces a subtle hint of a converted barn. It's a look made popular in Europe, but the ambience here is all Kiwi - an approach that melts this house brilliantly into its surroundings. It sits on its own peninsula - staring out to stunning scenery from the Mount to the Kaimais - bathed in sun from dawn to dusk. The house and gardens have a sense of formality and total relaxation all in one. There's a foyer greeting that spills straight outdoors to pool and tennis; there's space to entertain in the open-plan hub; and separate cosiness in a TV den with its built-in office nook - one of many smart design features. Four bedrooms all enjoy personal doorways outside. The master suite sits on its own - off family living, with walk-behind dressing room to the designer bathroom - subtle styling everywhere emphasising the understated flair. It's a home built around space - floor-to-ceiling glazing wherever possible; pill-box windows for ventilation, leaving glazed panels and doors to frame scenery and draw nature inside at all times. Sheltered dining either side of kitchen/dining cater to every element and time of day - each area boasting distinct moods. \nEssentially, the tone is neutral inside - bold colour in the family hub highlighting its warm invitation with orange on the feature gas fire wall. This is picked out in kitchen splashes as well - a two-tone finish adding spunk to this upmarket kitchen - a cook's dream made for entertaining. Lighting plays a significant role too, gently curved ceilings adding further panache to the contemporary approach - plus there's storage for Africa. \nThis is a home for executives to artists, entertainers to horse lovers - grazing, post and rail fencing and a hidden grassed plateau for dressage, plus stable and tack room with power and lighting. Big grounds, no-fuss gardens and gorgeous setting - this place has hosted countless functions.\n\nLocation:\nFew regions in New Zealand or the world for that matter have as much to offer as the Bay of Plenty.

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.
