Tatton x Thorne

47E Moffat Road, Bethlehem

Enjoy sunrises, sunsets, rural outlooks, and comparative peace and privacy from one of the most desirable and convenient lifestyle locations in the BOP. Appreciate easy commuter access to the CBD and out-of-region routes, a short walk to the highly sought-after Bethlehem College, and a flat 2 km walk on pavement to the Bethlehem Shopping Centre.

The home was created by two of the BOP market’s most longstanding and well-regarded professionals: designer Will Tatton and builders The Thorne Group. Like those who conceived it, this home’s style and quality are enduring. Additional provenance comes from the exceptional Mark Cashmore-designed pool and landscaping.

Cherished by the same owners for 15 years, this is a rare opportunity in a tightly held market segment. It offers effortless, luxurious living for a couple, alongside the scale and amenities required for an outstanding family lifestyle.

Highly sought-after, outstanding central Tauranga lifestyle location.

Held for over 15 years, this enduring, single-level, designer home features plaster-over-brick and aerated concrete panel cavity construction. It is fully double-glazed, featuring hydronic underfloor heating and a thoughtful, flexible floor plan.

Sited a considerable distance off both Moffat Road and the new expressway, the property ensures the relative tranquillity of this central, convenient location is maximized.

Arriving off the exclusive 47 Moffat Road driveway, the property’s elevated position offers excellent privacy, with low-maintenance landscaping opening onto a well-conceived and hardscaped parking area. Decking leads to a covered entry and a short arrival foyer, where the spacious, appropriately scaled nature of the home immediately becomes apparent.

To the left of the entry, a mono-pitched great room contains the kitchen, family, and dining spaces. These connect seamlessly with a patio BBQ area and an alternative decked outdoor living area, perfectly positioned to take in the sunsets and rural vistas this site provides. The kitchen features a small but practical plumbed scullery, keeping things social with plenty of central island bench space, while the family room is suitably enhanced by a built-in gas fire for ambience.

Also off the foyer, positioned between the great room and the accommodation wing of the home, is a massive second living space/lounge. It features a corner sliding wall arrangement that allows for complete separation when required. GIB Noise lined, this space was originally conceived as a games and media room, and it still offers a home cinema experience with its built-in screen and projector. It also benefits from sliding doors opening to its own outdoor space.

At the living end of the hallway, a thoughtfully positioned powder room sits alongside a small home office with desk space for two, offering attractive outlooks to the pool area and landscaping on the north side of the home.

Two generously sized family bedrooms, each with their own en suite and direct outdoor connection, occupy the north side of the hallway. Meanwhile, a large two car garage, an indoor utility space, and a connected galley laundry occupy the south side, providing a practical, well positioned arrangement.

On the northeastern end of the home, the master suite is peacefully located, featuring sliders that open onto a northerly aspect patio and offer broad views from the sleeping area across the landscaped yard and its designer pool. This large space is mirrored on the other side of the headboard partitioning wall by an exclusive lounge area for the master, which has direct access to a private courtyard. Currently planted, this courtyard was originally conceived as a patio or deck area hosting a spa pool for discreet, direct use from the master bedroom. A generous walk-in wardrobe and an ensuite with a wet room shower, twin vanity, and bath complete the owner's indulgence.

Across the hallway from the master is the internal entry to the fourth or guest bedroom. This room is a studio-suite-scaled space for both sleeping and living, complete with a large en suite, a small kitchenette, and an independent entry opening to a private patio. This space would be highly suitable for a large work-from-home office, gymnasium, hobby space, or even home-and-income potential through Airbnb…

The home's designer pool is a signature Mark Cashmore feature, with its elevated positioning and minimal pool fencing achieved by way of trenched planting. Heated via a roof-mounted hydronic solar array and conveniently in view of the kitchen and main living areas, it simplifies the supervision of children while beautifully enhancing this private landscape.

Don't miss this rare opportunity to secure a home of such exceptional provenance, combining the talents of Tatton x Thorne and Cashmore in this tightly held market segment. Move straight in and enjoy it as is, or tailor its next era with your family's needs in mind.
