Tauranga, Bellevue 58 Western Road

Bellevue Beauty with Big Options

Perched on the ridge with sweeping views of the Kaimai Ranges, inner harbour, Mount, and urban neighbourhood, this colossal 938sqm (approx.) easily accessed site holds huge potential for developers or space loving families. The brick and concrete block 1960s house occupies a lofty elevation and northwest facing orientation for day long sun. There's plenty of scope to renovate and extend if a project for the two storey 187 sqm (approx.) dwelling is your objective.

From the spacious entrance hall with raked ceilings, several steps ascend to a mezzanine rendezvous area currently assigned as a dining space. Gorgeous honey toned native timber floors anchor this and the neighbouring kitchen where classic cabinetry, black laminate benches and smart red brick tiles create a trendy combo. The sunny lounge similarly has high ceilings and timber panel feature wall while a log burner fire upon stone hearth and upright is a focal point. Three double bedrooms have new carpet and all have built in wardrobes and attractive new drapes. These share a stylish and sizable bathroom with encaustic tile feature wall, floating vanity with gilt mirror, and shower - possibly space for a tub - and next door a separate toilet. The laundry is a biggie and could easily yield some space to become a walk-in pantry for the next door kitchen.

Vast internal access carpeted garaging downstairs integrates a variety of workshop and storage zones - ripe for remodelling. Attached to this, two rooms have each done duty as overflow accommodation with the kid's casual den having exterior access. The privately situated mostly flat nicely landscaped and lawned section includes ample off street parking and sits close to Cherrywood shops, good schools, commuter bus routes, and Matua Saltmarsh Reserve walkways.
