Meet Me Under the Apricot Tree
This classic weatherboard bungalow is the ideal cure-all answer for first time homeowners. With Tauranga Hospital, Girls College, Gate Pa Shopping Centre and School all essentially around the corner, you can discard the car keys and become a fulltime pedestrian or public commuter. Sited with elevation on a private, well-established freehold section, mature trees and secluded outdoor areas are an appealing feature. A new roof was added several years ago and although tidy, there is abundant scope for further rejuvenation throughout. The deep-toned carpet anchors and contrasts with white walls delivering a simplistic finish for spacious feels and the home is thoughtfully configured to provide versatile allocated spaces for living, dining and socialising. The cheerful kitchen is efficiently functional for composing a good-tasting dish and the separate lounge has a heat pump for winter warming or summer cooling. Out through French doors you’ll find a place of repose by way of the privately enveloped garden, allowing you options in terms of open-air entertaining or picnicking beneath the protective boughs of the deciduous apricot tree – be it shade in summer or sunlight in winter. Bedrooms bathe in natural light with one offering direct access onto a deck and all share a serviceable bathroom with restroom and shower alcoves. In the basement awaits a washhouse large enough to accommodate a decent-size load of dirty laundry and there’s ample flexibility with the externally accessed storage sitting alongside both this, the double carport and off-street parking. Cambridge Park is the final factor which makes this your next move, as it’s the ideal spot to take a walk with your two or four-legged friend.
