What's around 657 Minden Rd

Elevated Ambiance

Boasting unencumbered and expansive views of nearly the entire Bay of Plenty, this modern colonial-style home is unique, filled with character, and offers so much more than your average lifestyle property. Set on an established half- hectare wonderland, the current owners have continued with an extensive native planting regime, including 100 pohutukawa, adding to the existing kauri, totara and kowhai and creating an oasis that attracts kereru, tui, fantails, pheasants, quail to name a few. The solid, well-built, Peter Lochhead designed home offers an unexpected mix of character and functionality. The extensive use of native and exotic timber throughout is complimented by a high-stud and perfectly planned layout. North facing and with a deep rolled verandah, it’s hard not to be drawn to the ever-changing view from almost any room in the house. Designed and improved with efficiency in mind, the home is insulated, largely double-glazed, and has a solar hot water system and hydronic underfloor heating throughout. Consistently warm and dry in winter, and cool in summer, our clients have described this as the most comfortable home they’ve lived in. In addition to the family home, there’s a fully consented and recently refurbished self-contained flat. Suitable for short and long-term stays, this highly sought-after extra accommodation could open up any number of possibilities for you and your family. We’re expecting strong interest in this listing so do not hesitate, come along to one of our planned open homes and see this perfect example of why so many folks call Minden Road ‘home’. - North facing 315m2 home (4 bedrooms or 3 + large study) - 48m2 fully consented, self-contained flat - Double, internal access garage plus additional 80m2 garage - Australian hand-thrown brick exterior, double-glazed aluminum joinery - Fijian kauri doors, rimu flooring, window frames & skirting - Stylish designer kitchen with stainless steel benches & scullery - 4,928m2 land area including landscaped lawns, orchard & veges

The complete package

Jason and Cameron immediately impressed us with their professionalism and knowledge in applying a highly effective marketing strategy. They maintained that high standard throughout the sale process. We particularly appreciated their excellent communication skills; they listened to our concerns and opinions, and provided clear explanations for the advice they provided. Their team of stylist, photographer and video production manager, were equally personable and professional, producing quality support in presenting our home. We’re really pleased we chose Oliver Road, and would happily recommend them to anyone looking for a unique real estate team.
