Arriving at number 32 the entrance belies what you will experience upon entering the property. Brace yourself - 2.3 ha of beautiful parklike grounds await, including a stand of stately palms, specimen trees and natural water features plus a wonderful home orchard.

The inviting four-bedroom home sits at ease in the attractive environment with outdoor living spaces positioned to allow fabulous views of the surrounds; accommodate the relaxing spa pool and provide the facility to soak up the essence of this amazing property.

Open plan living spaces interact perfectly; great for family living and/or entertaining. A generous kitchen, family/dining space and the step-down lounge complete with a feature open fire for ambience and a heat pump for ease. There's also the efficient freestanding Bosca woodburner. Three double bedrooms, three bathrooms within the home (two are en-suites) and a fourth accessed off the garage. If you have limited mobility, one en-suite is designed to cater for such a situation. The fourth bedroom is smaller and positioned to work as an office, if required. Storage facilities are at a premium, whether it be in the kitchen, the wonderful walk-in linen cupboard, or the large garage.

But wait there's more a big three bay shed, one of the bays being lockable, this may be perfect for the boat, or the hobbyist. The stud height of the open bays could probably accommodate the camper.

There's plenty of room for cricket, a bit of putting on the manicured green, or recline and watch the children burning off their energy. If activity is on your to do list, this is the place to be. The enticing Ruby Bay waterfront is across the road, the Great Taste cycle trail passing down the street, Mapua wharf and all its attractions within a comfortable walk.

If you have green fingers there is potential to sell the palms which are collectively planted on one side of the expansive lawn. This could possibly be the commencement of a new income stream for the budding horticulturalist.
