Live panoramically positioned on a promontory in an elevated gated country community.
Arrive up a curved drive past the rolling paddocks and the horse arena to arrive at the highest point of the property, a view platform which takes in all the beauty of the country, coast, city, Mauao, Minden hills and Kaimai Ranges.
The sophisticated rustic Shadowclad home overlooks its 4.6125ha of grazing that curves below and slightly beyond it. Living wraps the view frontage with inspiring outlook from every window. Tile look concrete flooring is a practical, energy efficient, option for the kitchen, dining and family area where children and dogs will run in and out to and from the lawn all day. Carpeted living space is backed by a warm solid fuel fire for winter warmth and there is a sheltered deck outside for summer evenings watching the sunsets and the city lights.
The master suite with its own balcony and fifth bedroom are privately above while three more bedrooms and office fan off the lower hall where macrocarpa features in the family bathroom and the laundry is the size you'd want in the country.
Other buildings include a loosebox and storage shed below the home, small sheds by the arena. Though currently horse country the paddocks which include a gully of bush reserve could equally support other stock. They are well serviced with good fencing and mains fed (via a holding tank) troughs in every paddock.
The stunning 270 degree views enhance your pleasure night and day; urban proximity makes it a convenient country life. The gated community is shared by only three properties though this one has the advantage over the others of having been approved for another site to be subdivided off it.
Location:
Few 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.
Key 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.
Tauranga 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.
