Overview

Unbeatable Value with Stunning Lake Views

The owner has set the price at $700,000, making this one of the best-value opportunities in Rotorua. For a home of this size, outlook, and location, it's an offer that's hard to believe - and even harder to beat. Feel on top of the world in this spacious and welcoming home, perfectly positioned to take in sweeping views over Rotorua's lake and city. From sunrise to sunset, every moment here feels special - whether you're enjoying your morning coffee bathed in light or watching the sky glow from the sun-drenched deck at day's end. Set across a generous 250m² (more or less) floor plan on a 1138m² (more or less) section, the home offers the perfect balance of space, serenity, and lifestyle. The beautifully established gardens create a private, park-like setting - a peaceful retreat with room for kids to play, pets to roam, and plenty of space to entertain. Inside, the warmth and character of Lockwood design shine through. Three well-proportioned bedrooms and two bathrooms ensure comfort for family or guests, while the expansive downstairs area opens up endless possibilities - a gym, workshop, or games room, you decide. A double garage and ample off-street parking add practicality, and an internal elevator seamlessly connects both levels, adding ease and accessibility to everyday living. Nestled in a quiet cul-de-sac surrounded by quality homes, you'll enjoy privacy and tranquillity without losing touch with convenience. Schools, shops, Rotorua's vibrant CBD, and popular attractions are all just a short drive away. For investors, there's even more to love - explore short-stay accommodation options, or retain the excellent long-term tenant who would be delighted to stay on. This is a home that truly elevates everyday living - relaxed, versatile, and set against one of Rotorua's most captivating backdrops
