This immaculate vertical cedar weatherboard home delivers such delight both inside and out you will declare it a winner even before you have proof in the Silver Cedar style award it won in the Registered Master Builders Awards 2016.

Built by award winning Kuriger Builders Tauranga Ltd, step into the light bright interior with its Scandi influenced atmosphere and be immediately tempted to gravitate from the open plan living to an expansively ambient and inviting outdoor room, covered and very sheltered for all weather enjoyment.

Backed by the dramatic black and white granite benches of the kitchen and socially central island, the serenely tiled dining space and carpeted lounge feature sliders out to the wonderful alfresco dining and lounging. Relax and pour the wine in total privacy surrounded by both hard and soft landscaping.

The living areas (and fourth bedroom or large office/ second lounge, plus powder room) are a few steps up from high-stud double garaging. Upstairs find three more light filled bedrooms including a master suite where you can wake to a peep of Mount Maunganui; and a large double room with an office nook. Both bathrooms upstairs are seamlessly spacious. There is plenty of storage incorporated in this home!

You wouldn’t expect to find a blueberry orchard tucked away behind a pristinely presented Bethlehem home. Just beyond the beautifully maintained outdoor area, you’ll discover 10 fruit trees and a fully netted patch of 30 blueberry bushes ensuring the berries are yours, not the birds.

Back on the living level of the home, fencing provides safety for children and dogs and a path leads to a concreted utility area, raised vegetable plot and garden shed discretely behind the home.

From the young Pohutukawas framing the drive and up to the back fence, this is a tranquil property that will delight you in many ways.
