For some buyers, 20 Farm Street will be about the home. For others, it will be about the land. What makes this property different is the flexibility to consider both.
Held within the same family since it was built, this property combines an original brick home on a 625sqm (approx.) freehold site in an established part of Mount Maunganui.
Whether you're ready to move in, renovate, extend or simply secure a substantial site close to Bayfair Shopping Centre and the beach, there is scope here to consider what works best for your circumstances both now and in the future.

Home
The existing home remains largely original throughout, offering buyers the chance to modernise and add value over time. For families, there is room to enjoy now. For renovators, there is clear scope to improve. For investors, there is scope to consider how the property may work both today and into the future.
Land
Beyond the home itself, the land opens the door to a range of possibilities. The home is positioned towards the northwestern boundary, while the driveway runs along the eastern side of the property. This arrangement leaves a substantial flat backyard beyond and creates a layout that may support a range of future opportunities.
Location
Location has long been one of the area's greatest strengths. Bayfair Shopping Centre is just footsteps away, providing convenient access to shopping, dining and everyday services, while recent upgrades to Farm Street have improved pedestrian connectivity to the Arataki Bus Hub and surrounding retail precinct. The beach is approximately 850 metres from the property and key routes connecting Mount Maunganui, Papamoa and the wider Tauranga area are all within easy reach.
Future Potential
Some buyers may see an opportunity to renovate and create a home tailored to their needs. Others may investigate the addition of further accommodation, explore options for additional dwellings or assess how the site's configuration and planning framework may support future development opportunities.
Adding further appeal, the property is located within the High Density Residential Zone under Plan Change 33. While any future development remains subject to council requirements and necessary consents, buyers may wish to investigate how the planning framework may support their long term objectives.
For some, the opportunity will be immediate. For others, it may be what the future holds that proves most compelling.
The information provided regarding Plan Change 33, zoning and development potential is intended as a general guide only. Any future development remains subject to Tauranga City Council requirements, applicable planning provisions and all necessary consents. Buyers should undertake their own due diligence regarding zoning, Plan Change 33 provisions, development capacity, permitted activities and any matters relevant to their intended use of the property.
