Due to the high level of interest in this property, a Deadline has been set. All offers will be presented to the Vendor on Wednesday 18th November 2026.
Position, privacy and presentation come together beautifully at 19 Melville Drive. Set in a sought after Whakatane location, this well maintained split level home enjoys wonderful views, generous living spaces and a peaceful setting that makes it something rather special.
From the kitchen, dining and lounge you look across a garden full of native trees to open rural countryside, with tui, kereru and weka as regular visitors. Upstairs, the front bedrooms look down the coast and over to the hills. 19 Melville Drive sits high in one of Whakatane's most sought after streets, and it makes the most of it.
The house is tucked away down a quiet, private right of way, offering a welcome sense of privacy while remaining conveniently located. No through traffic, good neighbours, and a real sense of having your own patch.
A formal entrance foyer creates an inviting introduction, with the home's split level design providing flexibility for family living.
The modern kitchen is well appointed and connects seamlessly with the adjoining dining area, with doors opening to a private, sunny paved courtyard. This delightful outdoor space is perfect for morning coffees, alfresco dining or entertaining friends and family.
The separate lounge is a warm and inviting retreat, complete with a heat pump, new carpet and drapes. Large windows capture the outlook and natural light, creating a comfortable space to relax and unwind.
The home offers four bedrooms: three doubles and one single size room, currently used as an office and fitted with an inbuilt desk. The master has its own ensuite, and one of the other bedrooms opens onto a small private deck. The large and stylish family bathroom is a
highlight, with a freestanding bath and large corner shower. There's even a third toilet off the garage, adding further convenience.
On the lower level, a generous rumpus room offers exciting versatility. With its own exterior access, this space could provide an additional bedroom, second living area, teenage retreat or work from home option, depending on your needs.
Outside, the property continues to impress. The large easy care rear section runs down the embankment amongst mature native trees and plantings, and it truly feels like your own private reserve. Adding to the appeal is a surprisingly generous flat lawn, ideal for children to play, outdoor entertaining or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The established gardens create a lovely green outlook and a real sense of privacy, while offering a keen gardener years of scope to explore and expand, should they
wish.
Parking completes the package. There's an internal access single garage, a double carport and plenty of extra off street space for the boat, caravan or campervan.
Beautifully presented and maintained to a high standard, this is a property that delivers on so many levels. The sought after location, wonderful views, established gardens, private outdoor living and versatile floor plan combine to create a home with genuine appeal.
Great position, beautiful presentation and room for everyone. 19 Melville Drive is a home you'll be proud to call your own.
