Once Upon a Time in the Country
This unique 5244 sqm (approx.) semi-rural property overlooking Joyce Road, has a distant panorama to Mauao and Mayor Island on the horizon. Selling for the first time in over 30 years and built by the current owners, the modernised four-bedroom board and batten home nestles amidst parklike grounds featuring lawns, fruit trees, and shrubs. This is a golden opportunity for that dreamed-of laid-back lifestyle with potential to reap the rewards perhaps from the addition of a minor dwelling, house extension, or a swimming pool.
The home’s interior decor reflects a sorbet summer palette instilling a fresh country feel throughout. A large open plan lounge has cosy heat pump and northern orientation soaking up every drop of sun. Ranch sliders stack back to ease the flow to a large deck for entertaining while the adjacent dining area is similarly appointed with steps from a smaller deck to a huge pergola covered patio for all weather alfresco use. The updated galley kitchen was custom designed and incorporates plenty of cabinetry, tinted glass splash back and modern appliances. Double bedrooms have built in closets and includes master with deck access while two contemporary bathrooms and big separate laundry easily cater for a busy household.
A sweeping driveway leads around to freestanding garaging – one double and an extra-large single with substantial parking for multiple vehicles. A peaceful, and popular sanctuary for flocks of melodious tui, in the past there were multiple orchid houses here and one with irrigation connected still stands. Several ancillary workshop outbuildings are ideal for hobbyists – horticulture and otherwise and a plethora of harvest bearing fruit trees and raised vegetable and berry beds all contribute to the good life. For the necessities, Tauranga Crossing is close to home as is The Lakes neighbourhood, Aquinas and ACG Schools and main arterial routes to transit you across the region or into the city centre.
