A Tropical Retreat - Hard to beat

Sprinkle a little bit of spice in your life with this pocket of lush tropical tranquility. A 1980s cottage by name and spacious in nature, this generously proportioned cross lease section would be ideal for those with a growing tribe of youngsters. Fully fenced to keep everyone safe and sound, tiered patios and lush lawns are perfect for children and family pets. Optimally located and configured for those looking for a good solid investment, this versatile property is a rare find in a city currently welcoming an influx of young families seeking the good life.

Open plan lounge and dining areas are warm and cosy spaces with good old fashioned wood burner fireplace receiving back up from the heat pump and lots of warm north facing afternoon sun. Sliders stack back to connect the entertainment space as well as the master bedroom with the substantial covered deck where the barbecue will stand to attention all year round. A sleek white kitchen blends trendy chic and old school artistry with the rustic hand carved timber breakfast bar an eye-catching focal point. Three bedrooms in the house share a modern bathroom with wall hung vanity and separate bathtub. With separate laundry, plentiful built-in storage and ample off-street parking. The separate garage has been converted to accommodation but would easily adapt as a rumpus room or even revert to garaging if desired.

Close as the pigeon flies to Brookfield New World crossroads and handy for Gordon Carmichael Reserve to take the dog for a romp or to bike the pathways, this superb property zoned for top Otumoetai schools is handy for a city or Bethlehem commute too.
