Overview

Come for the Space. Stay for the Lifestyle.

Move-in ready, generously proportioned and thoughtfully modernised, 68 Forrester Drive offers the best of both worlds; the space and solidity of an established home with the comfort, style and ease of modern living. Set on a generous 728sqm (approx.) section in one of Welcome Bay’s most coveted streets, this substantial home offers five bedrooms plus a study, two bathrooms and an easy, practical layout designed for everyday life. Forrester Drive is known for its established feel and strong sense of community, with Rangataua Bay and Tye Park just moments away. The home has been extensively refreshed, with fresh interior and exterior paint, new carpet and an updated kitchen. The result is a home that feels current, comfortable and ready to enjoy from day one. At the heart of the home, the spacious open-plan living and dining area is light, welcoming and well connected to the modernised kitchen. Generous proportions provide room to gather without feeling crowded, while the layout also offers plenty of flexibility for those who want separate spaces for work, guests, children or hobbies. Indoor living flows outdoors to a Kwila deck, established gardens, spa pool and built-in outdoor fire area, creating an easy setting for entertaining, relaxing or simply enjoying the privacy of the section. The generous master suite includes an ensuite and excellent storage, while the additional bedrooms and separate study offer versatility for a wide range of households. Whether you need space for a growing or blended family, guests, working from home or simply want more room around you, this home delivers. Practicality is another standout. The fully fenced property has three gated access points, a double garage, carport and ample off-street parking, including room for a boat or motorhome. Raised garden beds, established fruit trees and garden cabin add further lifestyle appeal without sacrificing suburban convenience. Across the road, Tye Park offers a playground, BBQ facilities and boat and jet-ski access, while Rangataua Bay is just metres away. From the front deck, bay and hill views add to the sense of space and connection to the outdoors. Local shops, schools, Bayfair, Mount Maunganui and Tauranga CBD are all within easy reach. For buyers wanting a home that feels modern and move-in ready, but with the generous proportions, established section and community feel that can be difficult to find in newer developments, 68 Forrester Drive offers a compelling combination. Please note: the fourth and fifth bedrooms are noted on the original floor plan as a sunroom/study.
