Families who want a space and a house that feels connected to its garden will feel right at home. Offering relaxed, single-level living with an easy everyday feel and two on-site carparks, well suited to buyers wanting room to live, work and unwind.

Large entrance rancher slider doors and north facing windows flood the living with light . Plus a second private covered patio is a wonderful second living area and a secure and private space to kids and pet to play or that family function. A wood burner keeps things comfortable through the cold. The kitchen is a genuine social hub, with a practical galley-style layout, good bench space and a clear line of sight through to the dining area, so cooking and conversation stay connected.

The main bedroom is a well sized, restful space situated at the back of the home. The other bedrooms are also carpeted and well proportioned, offering flexibility for kids, guests as life evolves. Or set up as multipurpose room, giving you a dedicated spot for working from home, hobbies or a reading space. The bathroom is well appointed, with both a freestanding clawfoot bath and separate shower.

Outside, multiple decked and paved areas give you options, from a covered, sheltered corner for morning coffee to open spaces for summer barbecues. Established lawns, mature trees, fruit trees and raised beds create a private backdrop. Garden sheds and keep tools and projects neatly contained, while a concrete driveway and off street parking with room for a cabin, boat or campervan. If you consider you next family home this is a must see.

Kawerau’s friendly, close-knit feel is a real drawcard, with Kawerau South School and Tarawera High School both within easy reach for families. Walks along the Tarawera River and time at Prideaux Park or the Kawerau Hot Pools give weekends a relaxed, outdoorsy rhythm.
