Overview

Sold under the hammer $1.25 Million

Enjoying a spectacular harbourside location, 45 minutes north-west of Tauranga and 20 minutes commute to Waihi Beach, Ongare Point lies midway between the surf at Whangamata and the café scene at Mt Maunganui... possibly the ideal location if you have surfing family in both directions but prefer a more tranquil location. One of only 12 homes on the foreshore, this character home enjoys expansive views from Athenree to the Mount taking in the grandeur of Matakana Island, Anzac Bay and the twinkling night lights of the Bowentown Boating & Sport Fishing Club across the bay. Over the years, many of these baches have been passed down through generations. Now number 26 could soon become yours. The original third bedroom is now an expanded living/home office area facing the harbour. As well as a full bathroom with toilet, there is also a separate guest toilet. A shower in the carport with hot and cold water could be handy when coming back from a swim. Launch your kayak or dinghy from the sandy foreshore across the road. You can even catch snapper from out in the channel and then have dinner on the deck! Coastal walks along the harbour front to a beautiful Reserve with giant gum trees will keep you fit. Ongare Point is a small, friendly coastal community of mainly permanent residents. Bonuses are: town water and fibre, no septic tanks (reticulated sewage - community scheme means no subdivision), power lines are underground, gas hot water means you can have a lovely shower and swim in the harbour as soon as you get out of that traffic. Fruit trees include citrus, cherry, avocado, nectarine (dwarf), apricot (dwarf), red plum, peach (dwarf) and Golden Delicious apples. Lovely big lawn for pup tents and motor Home. Extend the dwelling up to 8-metres high (subject to a building consent) without power lines obstructing your view—design a minor dwelling for guests. Live in the view while you work from home and enjoy a new, relaxing lifestyle. Make every day a holiday!
