The moment you set foot onto the wraparound deck of this raised home, the leafy outlook immediately draws you in. Set across a generous 230m² floor plan on a 634m² section, this is a residence designed for families who value light, warmth and everyday connection to nature. Double glazing throughout enhances year-round comfort, while pallasite cladding and a colour steel roof ensure the home is as low maintenance as it is inviting.

The heart of the home unfolds as an open-plan living and dining expanse, framed by large windows that pull in northern sun and garden views. The well-appointed kitchen anchors the space beautifully. From here, the lounge transitions effortlessly into a second lounge and sun room, where a woodburner adds another layer of warmth and comfort.

Four well-proportioned bedrooms offer flexibility for growing families, guests, or a home office setup. Three include built-in wardrobe space, while the primary bedroom enjoys the privacy of its own ensuite, creating a master retreat that feels tucked away from the home’s social zones. A separate laundry keeps household rhythms running smoothly without intruding on daily living.

Practicality is well catered for with a large double garage and ample off-street parking, providing plenty of space for vehicles, storage, or weekend projects.

Outdoors, the landscaping delivers a true sense of sanctuary. Mature greenery wraps the home, creating a private, garden-forward setting that feels worlds away from the pace of town. The sloping deck traces the northern edge of the home, offering multiple vantage points for morning coffee, long lunches, or quiet evenings as the light softens.

Conveniently located between the Whakatane township and Ohope Beach—both just a short drive away—the property enjoys the best of coastal and town living. Properties offering this combination of elevation, warmth, low maintenance living and established greenery are tightly held.
