An incredible, modern family home with spaces for everyone in the family to enjoy. Built of solid board and batten with colour-steel roofing, it is hard to find homes of this calibre in the heart of Bethlehem.

Completed just 2 years ago this Landmark Home showhome has a timeless design with an open plan kitchen/family/dining area with a log fire in the family room for heating and ambience. A heat pump also services this area. Warm and dry with double glazing, the home is spacious with a great layout. Double doors into the second lounge can be closed to make a private space, well separated from bedrooms (great if you have teenagers), and double doors into the entrance foyer. The kitchen is large and modern with a feature island. The walk-in large pantry has lots of space and shelving for extra storage.
n
A bedroom downstairs with a full separate bathroom is perfect for use as a home office or guest room or maybe for a Bed and Breakfast. Entertaining is a breeze under the covered deck area with doors leading off the living areas that open right out giving easy indoor/outdoor flow, with a magnificent deciduous specimen tree that provides beauty and privacy in the front living area.

Upstairs are 3 bedrooms and the master suite with a small living area at the top of the stairs for teenagers to relax in, or to create reading nook/media room. All bedrooms have wardrobes and there is a large, walk-in storage cupboard. The master ensuite has views to Mauao in winter and has a heat-pump for warming or cooling through the seasons. The generous bathroom not only has a large, walk-in tiled shower (no glass) but also a bath. The walk-in wardrobe is generous and private with double entry to the bedroom and ensuite.

Gas fuels the hot water system and cooking hobs. The house also has an internal vacuum system both upstairs and downstairs, and a separate laundry with outdoor access.
n
The internal access double garage has generous storage and there's plenty of off-street parking, including a lean-to carport for a third car or boat.

Fenced on three sides, established fast-growing hedging will provide privacy in the coming years along the Moffat Road side, and there is plenty of room to put in a pool if desired.

The current owners have enjoyed getting to know their wonderful neighbours and being within walking distance of everything they need.

Situated on 881sqm of land the home is close to local amenities and travel routes. Walking distance to Bethlehem College, Bethlehem town centre, including Countdown, Kmart, Smithu2019s City and just across the road from the Decor Garden Centre and cafe, and nearby extensive walking tracks through bush reserve, duck ponds and wetlands is great for walking the dog.

This corner of Bethlehem has proved to be a quiet, friendly, safe neighbourhood. While Beaumaris Boulevard is a wide connecting street, it has surprisingly little traffic at night and with the modern build and double glazing, visitors are always pleasantly surprised at how quiet the house is inside. Easy access to the Expressway allows for a six minute drive to the Tauranga CBD, with the joy of no traffic congestion. And in 15 minutes you can be lying in the sun on the world-class beach of Mount Maunganui.

Public transport stops a few metres from the house. What more could you ask for!
