Overview

A place to breathe, entertain and belong

Tender closing: 4pm, 11 June 2026 (unless sold prior) Tender location: Bayleys, 110 Maunganui Road, Mt Maunganui Perched high on the ridge of Mount Maunganui, this timeless home has been thoughtfully reimagined to balance classic character with contemporary comfort. Every detail has been carefully considered, preserving the home’s original integrity while elevating it to meet the expectations of modern living. At the heart of the home, the master suite is a true sanctuary - perfectly positioned to greet each morning with sweeping views of Mauao. Both the master suite and main living areas flow effortlessly onto an expansive outdoor living space, designed as a natural extension of the home. Here, a rain-sensing Louvretec roof, an impressive open fireplace with cooking capability, and sliding screens to temper coastal breezes create an inviting setting for year round entertaining. Indoors, warmth and comfort take centre stage. Vented gas central heating ensures a cosy retreat during cooler months, while soft winter sunlight filters across a seamless palette of sand toned interiors, evoking a sense of calm sophistication. The home’s original footprint has been respectfully retained beyond the master suite, enhancing its enduring appeal. The kitchen is both stylish and highly functional, featuring stainless steel benchtops complemented by engineered stone surfaces, a central island, and a well appointed scullery - perfect for effortless hosting. Both bathrooms are elegantly tiled and include twin vanities, offering a refined sense of space and luxury. Accommodation is generous and flexible, with two double bedrooms and a versatile sunroom that can serve as an office or fourth bedroom. These spaces are connected by an extra wide hallway adorned with French doors showcasing distinctive 1950s glazing - a subtle nod to the home’s heritage. Practicality meets innovation with features designed for modern ease. A lift connects the lower foyer to the main living level, making everyday tasks - like bringing up groceries - remarkably convenient. The high stud single garage is complemented by a large parking area, with scope to add a double garage or carport. A second driveway provides additional parking options for a boat or campervan and presents exciting potential for future subdivision. The grounds are equally impressive. An underground rainwater tank supports irrigation, ensuring lush, green lawns year round. Despite the home’s central location; just a short stroll to the beach and nearby shops via a scenic reserve - the setting feels private and tranquil. Elevated views take in the natural beauty of the surrounding landscape, from the iconic Mauao rising beyond the Pōhutukawa lined slopes of Mount Drury to glimpses of the ocean framed by mature native trees and the vegetation of Rabbit Island. This is a home where heritage charm and modern living come together in perfect harmony - offering a lifestyle as inspiring as its surroundings.
