Tender closes 2pm, Monday 7th September at Harcourts Motueka, 183 High Street, Motueka (unless sold prior)

The vendors are relocating, which means you get the chance to snap up a home that makes a convincing argument for spending less time mowing and more time enjoying yourself.

This is the sort of place where life feels easy. It's sunny, warm and welcoming, with a manageable, sizeable section that gives you room to enjoy the outdoors without signing yourself up for a part-time gardening job. There's space for a garden, a few pots, the dog (gate available), the grandkids or simply a chair in the sun with a cup of tea.

And speaking of sun, this home makes the most of it. The kitchen gets the morning sun, while the main bedroom catches the afternoon rays, so there's always a good excuse to find the sunny spot. Got a motorhome or camper? Even better. There's off-street parking ready for it, so your pride and joy can live at home too. Park up, unpack and start thinking about where you're heading next. The established kowhai brings plenty of bird life into the garden, adding a lovely bit of nature without demanding much in return. It's the kind of outdoor space you can actually enjoy rather than constantly maintaining.

Inside, it's practical without being fussy. There's a bathroom with both a bath and shower, a separate toilet and a low-maintenance brick exterior that means you can spend your weekends doing something considerably more interesting than painting the house.

Then there's the big tick: standalone with boat parking space. You get your own home, your own sizeable section and your own space, without taking on a huge property that becomes a second job. Whether you're a first home buyer ready to escape the rental treadmill, a small family wanting a home that works without the upkeep or you're thinking that retirement village life can wait because there are still a few roads left to explore, this one is worth a look.

Less mowing. More living. More sunshine. Maybe even more road trips.
Our vendors are motivated to relocate, so if you've been waiting for a home that gives you the space to live without all the work, this could be your cue to make a move.
