Family living in fantastic expression on this stunning property with green golf course outlook.

A spectacularly conceived living environment that creates a fun filled haven for family while making an architectural and design statement maximizing every bit of its sunny 959m2 site fronting the greens of Mount Maunganui's Golf Course.

In a renovation where only the reworked plastered brick of the lower side is evidence of the original this home packs lots of punch into a big rectangle box clad in band sawn cedar and industrial long run iron, where a rusticated iron door opens to huge hall slicing through its centre and revealing the continuity of the exterior walls as smooth interior timber. The generous sky lit hall leads you to open plan living spanning the golf course frontage with big sliders to patio and a zen like poolside outdoor living, privately walled and incorporating a neat shallow safe kids' pool which also invites adults to dangle toes and drink cocktails!

The streamlined kitchen evokes a subtle 70s air picked up in subtle design touches, has drawers within drawers, big entertaining island and concealed scullery. Effective lighting injects evening atmosphere into an easy living interior colour scheme of black, browns and neutrals, spiked with effective features. Back down the hall on the lower floor you find every space you need to work (an office for adults and one for children!) relax, let the kids play (rumpus room facing the pool) watch movies (fully equipped media room designed to double as an intimate lounge/library) store the sports gear (right beside the side parking where you load it to go fishing, water skiing, having family fun).

Hall width allows stairs to float to a wide landing off which are all four bedrooms and two massive storerooms. Lattice tiles in the en suite and dramatic feature wall behind the bed are just two standout features of a gorgeous master suite which overlooks the golf course, while children have sleepover friendly big rooms, the fourth bedroom sophisticatedly situated to please guests. Bathrooms - one downstairs, the other two above - exhibit the attention to detail and cohesive design that pulls this large home together.

The property is safe and secure with a walled drive to an electronic gate which accesses an exceptionally large parking area with double garage at one side and clever gates concealing a parking spot beside the home, ideal for the boat or camper. The property is handy to local schools and central for all the recreational advantages, shopping, entertainment and business amenities which make Mount Maunganui so desirable to families.

From its strong dramatic approach to the myriad of life enhancing interior features this property stands out for putting family first.

Location:

Few regions in New Zealand or the world for that matter have as much to offer as the Bay of Plenty. From the gentle harbour waters to its surf beaches, its fishing and diving grounds to the scenic bush, the Bay is as much a quiet recreational playground as it is a thriving business and rural community.

Key economic elements for the region include Tourism, Horticulture (predominately Kiwifruit and Avocado production), Viticulture, Pastoral farming, Forestry, Housing and Holiday Makers. The rapid growth in the area provides a vibrant living environment from job opportunities to business prospects with a sustainable future.

Tauranga as a city is one of the fastest, if not fastest growing cities in New Zealand. With a mixture of beautiful scenery, great beaches, cafes, restaurants and nightspots it is more than a city it is a lifestyle. The award winning schools also provide a key reason why Tauranga is proving to be such an attractive destination for both ex Kiwi's and migrants as a place to set up their new life in New Zealand.
