Tauranga, Otumoetai 163 Ngatai Road

Huge Potential with Million Dollar Views

Set back on a rear section in a million-dollar neighbourhood with panoramic views to match, this remarkable property comes with strings attached but they're worth taking on in this exceptional location. Rectification of some unconsented work and remedial maintenance will bring this schist and Linea clad dwelling up to code assuring a bright future. Once signed, sealed, and delivered, with the required corrections completed, this lofty ridgeline residence will represent a happy ending to the makeover story.

The 214 sqm (approx.) home has an elevator between floors with upper level comprising core living areas where the inner harbour vistas take in Matakana Island, Mauao, Pilot Bay and the port. An enclosed veranda runs the length of the north facing frontage while the lounge incorporates a modern high gloss kitchen with stainless steel appliances including a gas hob. Three upstairs bedrooms share two contemporary tiled bathrooms with the split-level master quarters having ensuite, walk in wardrobe and a closed in conservatory that will need to be altered to comply. On the ground floor there's space for Africa with huge rumpus room and a third mellowing bathroom. Basement storage is plentiful and there's a single garage and single carport with the fenced kid-friendly section in need of a tidy up but featuring some fruiting trees.

In zone for popular Pillans Point School the property is located minutes from Otumoetai Golf Course, Kulim Park, waterfront boardwalks and Bureta Countdown, with city centre and main arterial routes a short commute from home.
