Friends and family have been sad to learn about the sale of this amazing 300m2 property and once you visit the sensational site, you will quickly see why. For the first time on the market in 27 years, this home is simply delightful at every turn. Trapping the morning sun and enjoying it until the end of the day, it is wrapped by a number of large windows and almost every room is bathed in natural light.

A spacious kitchen boasts functionality, ample working space and Bosch appliances as well ease of flow to both indoor and outdoor dining. The intimate living area provides a delightful escape for the winter - because for most of summer you'll be enjoying the multitude of alfresco dining options available. Entertain guests on the top level with lazy barbecues, at the mid level for long lunches, or the lower level for sundowners and canapes. Perched on the waters edge, it is an idyllic spot to light the brazier, sip a glass of wine and admire the twinkling city lights across the way.

And if that wasn't enough, we've saved the best bit for last....Panoramic, sweeping views to Mount Maunganui will have you mesmerised for hours and this breathtaking outlook can be enjoyed from almost anywhere in the house. It is the first thing you notice when you arrive at the property and is the ultimate draw card here, among many. Recently renovated bathrooms are fit for royalty; the state of the art, multi-jet shower and king sized bathtub ooze quintessential luxury and space is no issue here either. With five bedrooms in total, rumpus room and additional bathroom downstairs - there is an abundance of room to move. Add to that the garage, workshop and office and the world is your oyster for living options.

A great deal of love has been poured into the landscaping and this is evident with raised garden beds, palm trees and succulents that flank the entire property.
