Tucked into a quiet cul-de-sac and backing onto peaceful reserve land, 4 Taepa Close is the kind of home you feel connected to the moment you arrive - light, calm, and filled with the simple pleasures of everyday living. Loved, looked after, and thoughtfully enhanced, it’s a place where mornings feel brighter, afternoons feel longer, and summer spills effortlessly outdoors.
The setting alone sets this home apart. North-facing and wonderfully private, the sun moves across the home from first light in the main bedroom to warm the living areas right through the day. The reserve behind creates a natural extension of your backyard - a haven for birdlife and a quiet green outlook - with direct access from the colourful garden as well as from a walkway just one house away. Fully fenced with internal gate separation, both the front and back are secure, practical spaces for children and pets, with paved parking for two additional cars, boat, or camper, complementing the double garage.
Step inside and the home feels instantly airy. Generous glazing and a soft, neutral palette draw the light in, while the open-plan kitchen, dining, and living zone is designed for connection. From the kitchen you can see it all - kids on the lawn, friends gathering around the table, the breeze drifting through from sliders on both sides. A second living room brings welcome flexibility for movie nights, playtime, or quiet retreat.
The bedroom wing is peaceful and private, with three comfortable bedrooms tucked away from the main living. The master suite enjoys morning sun and a serene outlook to the garden. A family bathroom, separate toilet, and internal-access double garage tick every practical box, while the whole-home water filtration system means every glass, every shower, every tap feels that bit purer.
Outdoors, the love and care poured into this property really shows. The wraparound deck follows the sun from morning to evening and has been thoughtfully extended around the built-in face-brick barbecue - complete with macrocarpa serving slabs, perfect for long summer evenings. Beneath a wooden pergola, thick tendrils of grapevine climb overhead – their broad leaves weaving a natural canopy that filters warm sunlight into soft patterns on the area below. A gentle breeze stirs the vines and clusters of grapes hang heavy, hinting at a lazy summer and making the perfect spot for a glass of wine shared under vine and sky.
New translucent sheeting overhead filters soft light onto the patio, creating a relaxed, all-weather outdoor room. A sprawling haven of fruit trees and fragrant herbs surround the property, the vast edible planting creating a garden that is both beautiful and quietly sustainable – this is one you’ll never want to leave.
Life here flows at an easy pace. A ten-minute stroll and a wander across the grass will have you on the beach. A few minutes in the car brings you to the buzzing Coast precinct - Fresh Choice, Pearl Kitchen, and The Good Home for live music and long lunches - or head in the other direction to Papamoa Plaza and Fashion Island. With arterial routes close by, getting to the Mount, Tauranga, and beyond is effortless.
Warm, welcoming, and well cared for, 4 Taepa Close feels like a home that has been truly lived in and -loved — a home ready to pass that feeling on. For first-home buyers, small families, couples, downsizers, or retirees wanting somewhere peaceful, sunny, naturally sustainable, and wonderfully easy to live in, this is where the good days gather.
