Premium central Tauranga lifestyle location. 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.

Single-level, with plaster-over-brick and aerated concrete panel cavity construction. The home is fully double-glazed and features hydronic underfloor heating and a flexible modern floor plan. Inside, the renovation included adding 28m² through the partial enclosure of a large internal courtyard to provide for a new kitchen/scullery, upgraded fittings and fixtures throughout, and a stunning natural microcement rendering of drywall surfaces.

Arriving off the exclusive 47 Moffat Road driveway, the property’s end-of-the-enclave positioning offers a large site with excellent privacy. The immaculate asphalt driveway continues through a large parking area with a central turnaround, which guides and formalizes arrival and provides another opportunity for the property to showcase its landscaping.

The covered entry and double front door are positioned centrally and open to a foyer with sight lines through an internal courtyard garden space to the living areas beyond. This feature ensures the foyer feels large, bright, and welcoming with intrigue and anticipation; key accomplishments of all great entry designs. From the foyer, there is immediate access to a generous home office with unique built-in cabinetry and clear views to the arrival area. Across from the office is entry to the larger-than-standard double garage with storage cupboards and an EV charger.

Moving into the home, a wall of storage leads to a large open-plan living area. This area is flanked by two internal courtyards that greatly enhance the space with a novel green oasis of light; a very resort-like touch. Set back between the courtyards is a spacious galley kitchen, and behind that, a massive, fully featured scullery. These high-end updates were part of an extensive architectural renovation and leave nothing wanting with respect to form or culinary function; whether for family or entertaining, this is up there with the best.

Both the dining and living sides of this great room benefit from wide in-built window seats and associated storage, as well as a broad connection to the outdoor living area made up of decks and patios stretching along the north and west sides of the home. A quality timber pergola fringes the threshold of the living space, and another separate pergola provides a specific shaded area under which outdoor dining can take place. An adjacent patio focuses around an outdoor fireplace.

Off the living area is a large separate lounge, and like the dining area, it enjoys its own wood fire. With its large bank of folding windows, this space is equally appealing in summer or winter. Adjacent to the lounge, a generous powder room provides for guests and services the living area.

Privately situated and occupying the rest of the eastern end of the home between the lounge and garaging is a substantial master bedroom. A partial "headboard wall" separates the bedroom from a spacious walk-through dressing room. The ensuite is also geared toward providing for him and her, with a double wet room shower, twin vanity areas, and a toilet nook with a cavity slider. Aside from its functionality, the ensuite offers a unique wall and floor pigmented microcement finish, giving a clean designer Mediterranean look, an easy-care surface, and a timeless natural feel.

The western end of the home provides 4 large bedrooms, each with built-in wardrobes. Three of these bedrooms offer a direct outdoor connection to deck or patio space. The patio area incorporates a large, quality Hot Spring spa pool, an outdoor hot and cold shower, access to the pool area, and easy family bathroom access via the functional galley laundry. The last of the bedrooms is slightly larger than the office, but oriented in the same way toward the arrival area, making this a very suitable second office space, with its size also potentially facilitating hobby or gym use. Hallway storage is also available in this wing of the home.

The family bathroom is positioned to equally service all bedrooms and has been lavished with the same finish and feel as the master ensuite. It includes a double-sink vanity and bath, in addition to a more typical box shower arrangement. The toilet sits cleverly in a privacy alcove.

Outside is a rare mix of designer landscaping and lifestyle self-sufficiency.

Across the driveway from the house sits a heavily planted area set up for chickens and an attractive shed with a rainwater collection tank providing for the property's irrigation system. There is ample space available on the other side of the arrival area for bin management and the parking of a boat, camper, or trailer. On the northern boundary of the property and extending down the east side are a number of beautifully constructed, large raised vege planter boxes; nine in total provide for ample growing opportunities. An additional shed space supports these gardening activities.

The remainder of the landscaping is more aesthetically focused, with dividing hedgerows, immaculate lawn space, a Pétanque court, patio and deck spaces, and a beautiful Del Tutto heated swimming pool with a dedicated pool shed.

This beautifully curated property offers an exceptional lifestyle with the best of both worlds—space for peace and privacy, while maintaining exceptional convenience.
