THE SETTING

Tucked away at the end of a quiet Te Puna cul-de-sac, this beautifully established property has the kind of presence that only comes with time. Mature gardens wrap around the home, creating privacy, shelter and a wonderful sense of arrival, while the elevated position captures peaceful views across the surrounding countryside towards the Te Puna inlet.

Set across 9,875sqm (more or less), the grounds unfold through established gardens, a brick potager and 68 avocado trees - offering space, beauty and a genuine sense of escape.



AT HOME

Warm, character-filled and generous in scale, the 366sqm (more or less) residence has been designed for family life, entertaining and simply enjoying being at home.

At its heart, the country-style kitchen features an impressive built-in oak table - a natural gathering place connecting the living spaces on either side. An intimate lounge with an open wood fire provides a cosy retreat, while a second lounge with a gas fireplace offers another inviting space to relax.

Bi-fold doors open wide to the covered loggia and pizza oven, creating a sheltered extension of the home for long lunches, summer evenings and entertaining throughout the seasons. Beyond, the brick potager and established gardens continue the connection between home and grounds.

Upstairs are three bedrooms - two doubles and a single. Both double bedrooms open to a generous, sun-filled balcony enjoying peaceful views towards the estuary and surrounding countryside, while two of the bedrooms have their own private ensuites.

All bathrooms feature underfloor heating, which also extends through the downstairs hallway and entrance.

A dedicated home office adds further practicality, while triple garaging provides generous space for vehicles and storage. Above the garage, a separate guest suite with its own private entrance and ensuite creates an inviting fourth-bedroom option for visiting family, extended stays or those wanting a little more independence.



BEYOND THE HOME

Adding another dimension to the property is an approximately 180sqm building, comprising around 110sqm of high-stud shed space and a further 70sqm of self-contained accommodation.

Skylit and impressively proportioned, the shed features a high-stud remote door and three-phase power, providing serious space for vehicles, a workshop, storage, hobbies or a home-based business.

Adjoining the shed, the self-contained apartment offers flexible options for independent accommodation, extended family or additional income, and comes complete with its own carport.

Grapevines trail the verandah, adding another layer of character to this beautifully established lifestyle property.



THE LIFESTYLE

For those drawn to the water, Waitui Reserve is approximately five minutes away, offering a lovely beach and convenient boat access to the Tauranga Harbour.

And while the setting feels wonderfully removed from the everyday, Tauranga CBD is approximately 15 minutes away.

There is a lot here, but perhaps the greatest appeal is how naturally it all comes together: a substantial family home, beautifully established grounds, guest accommodation, serious shed space, a separate apartment and room to simply enjoy life.

Private, established and unmistakably Te Puna.
