Overview

Fantastic Location And Potential Aplenty

Located in a popular area just a short twelve minute commute to Taupo CBD, this character, two bedroom Lockwood style cottage is also close to the wonderful swimming/recreational area of Whakaipo Bay with its W2K walk/bike/run trail. Less than ten minutes away are the Acacia Bay boat ramps and, even closer, is popular L'Arte Café. And, if all that wasn’t enough… This fantastic location also offers mesmerising, sweeping views of the Kaimanawa Ranges, Motutaiko Island, Whakaipo Bay, Mt. Ruapehu, Tongariro and Ngauruhoe. With such incredible vistas framed from the living area by the newly installed triple stacker doors you could while away many hours taking in the majestic beauty before you. Elsewhere on the property you'll enjoy stellar rural views that stretch to Mt Tauhara and well beyond to the Kaweka Ranges. The home is sheltered from the elements by the topography of the property and clever planting. An extensive deck wraps around two sides of the cottage and is part of the wonderful indoor/outdoor flow, so essential for a relaxed, modern lifestyle. The addition of a new ceiling not only modernises this home but also allows for the newly installed 3.6 insulation which has been added under the floor too. A new Wagener woodburner will keep everyone toasty in chilly weather. Endless hot water is supplied by a gas infinity califont. Great off-street parking supplements a large, over-sized double garage which also houses the laundry. With no close neighbours and not being visible from the road, this property is super-private. Being able to hear the uninterrupted and enchanting native bird songs attests to how wonderfully private it feels. Simply sublime. All of these attributes contribute to the incredible potential of this property. It could be a very appealing Air BnB, or a new build could be put on the site and the grounds developed further. There’s no doubt that there will be plenty of interest from savvy buyers so don’t risk missing out on this property which offers such mouthwatering opportunities. Contact Sacha or Penny without delay.
