Set on 1.6ha of peaceful Tapawera countryside, this warm and grounded home delivers comfort, practicality and room to breathe. With three or four bedrooms, 1 bathrooms with separate toilet, generous parking and shedding, it suits buyers seeking a scenic lifestyle opportunity without giving up everyday ease. Solid, practical and built to last with beautiful established gardens and open land ready to be enjoyed.

The enclosed entry is a standout detail, working beautifully as a mudroom, sunroom or drop zone after a day outside. The kitchen is with a breakfast bar, generous bench space, plus additional larder / pantry at the entrance that keeps the busy bits tucked away. It opens naturally to the dining zone, where wide windows frame the rural outlook and leads through to a sunny separate lounge. A second living area adds welcome flexibility for either living or a fourth bedroom - somewhere for reading, hobbies or hosting guests.

The accommodation is well considered, with three genuine doubles and good separation from the shared living areas. The main bathroom includes both a bath and separate shower, while a separate WC helps daily routines run more smoothly. The laundry is its own room, with built-in storage and bench space. Throughout, large windows pull in natural light and keep the landscape close.

Outside is where this property really settles into itself. There’s a covered deck for long lunches and evenings, established landscaping, raised planter boxes, veggie gardens, a pergola-framed lawn and plenty of room for kids, pets or a few animals. The large shed, carport and wide gravel forecourt give you excellent storage and parking, while the surrounding grounds and paddocks open up all sorts of possibilities.

Tapawera has always had a strong sense of community - a place where rural living still feels connected, and where weekends naturally lean toward the outdoors.

If you’ve been searching for sun, land and a home with real heart, give me a call. I’d love to show you around.
