Tucked away from the street and backing onto the beautiful Whakatāne Rose Gardens, this much-loved home has been treasured by the same owner since it was built in the early 1980’s.

Privately positioned on a rear site, the home offers a surprisingly functional layout that has stood the test of time. The open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area is enhanced by striking pitched ceilings, creating a wonderful sense of space and light. From here, doors open seamlessly to the generous entertainer’s deck, providing the perfect spot to relax, entertain, and enjoy the peaceful garden surroundings.

With two bedrooms and one bathroom, the home is comfortable as it stands, while also presenting exciting opportunities for a new owner to add their own style. Whether you choose to refresh cosmetically over time, reinstate the swimming pool, or extend the deck across the existing pool area, there’s plenty of scope to make this property your own.

Established gardens wrap around the home, creating a private, leafy setting that can be enjoyed immediately or reimagined to suit your vision.

While some buyers may wish to undertake cosmetic updates, the underlying appeal is clear - a practical layout, a sought-after location, and a home that has been lovingly cared for over four decades. With vacant possession available, the next chapter is ready to begin.

Set in a peaceful and highly convenient location, you’ll enjoy the unique benefit of having the Rose Gardens as your neighbour while remaining close to Whakatāne’s town centre, river walks, cafes, and everyday amenities. A hidden retreat with endless potential in a location that’s increasingly hard to find.
