Set on 2,203sqm (more or less) of elevated, north-facing land, 34 Poike Road is a home that feels more like a rural retreat than a suburban address. Surrounded by mature gardens, wide lawns, and the charm of established trees, it’s a place where kids can run, pets can roam, and the pace of life slows - yet Tauranga’s shops, schools, and amenities are only minutes away.

The 275sqm (approximate) residence unfolds with the ease of a true family home. Timber floors bring warmth to open-plan living, dining, and a generous family kitchen, while a woodburner anchors the lounge in comfort and tradition. French doors connect seamlessly to a sunny deck, setting the scene for alfresco living year-round.

Two distinct living areas plus a large media room provide space for everyone - whether it’s movie nights, quiet escapes, or hosting friends. The master suite, complete with ensuite and walk-in wardrobe, offers a private sanctuary, while two further bedrooms share a family bathroom.

From vege patches ready for planting to broad lawns shaded by fruiting and flowering trees, the gardens are as practical as they are picturesque. There’s plenty of room for backyard cricket, summer barbecues, or simply enjoying the tranquillity of your own green outlook. Excellent off-street parking and a double garage make everyday living effortless.

Despite its country feel, this home is brilliantly connected. In under 10 minutes you can reach shopping at Tauriko or Gate Pa, while Bayfair, downtown Tauranga, and Mount Maunganui are all within easy reach. It’s the rare balance of rural lifestyle and urban convenience - a place where families can grow, downsizers can spread out, and grandparents can welcome the whole crew with space to spare.

This is more than just a property - it’s a place to put down roots, to slow the pace, and to savour the kind of space that’s getting harder to find. A sanctuary to retreat to, and a homestead to share - all in one.
