With 3 bedrooms, an easy flow through the open-plan kitchen and living zone, and a lawn that surrounds the home, 164 Clayton Road gets the basics right for families searching for balance. Set on a 453m² section in Mangakakahi, with 91m² of single-level living, it's a home that offers peace of mind in terms of location, layout and convenience.

Inside, the living room is generous with wide glazed doors to the porch, and a heat pump already in place for year-round comfort. There’s a calm, easy connection through to the dining area, where a large window draws in the light and gives the whole middle of the home a brighter, more open feel. The kitchen is well-appointed, with good bench area, plenty of cabinetry, and a pass-through that peeks into the living room.

The bedroom wing is set off the hall, offering privacy and separation from the rest of the house. The largest bedroom is well-suited to serve as the master, while the other two are well-sized for children, guests, or a home office. A bathroom, separate WC and dedicated laundry all add up to better functionality.

Outside, there is more to work with than you might expect. The screened rear porch gives you a sheltered extra zone for wet shoes, bikes, drying, or a quiet breather. The lawn wraps the home with enough area for kids to play or for keen gardeners to make their mark, while the substantial detached double shed is a real bonus for storage, hobbies, or secure parking.

Living here puts you within easy reach of local schooling, including Aorangi School, Rotorua Intermediate and Western Heights High School, while Linton Park Community Centre and the wider reserve network add to the neighbourhood feel. The attractions of Central Rotorua are also an easy drive when errands or weekend plans call.

The rear house is also available for purchase, buy one, live in the other or rent out both.
