145 Oteki Park Drive, Welcome Bay, Tauranga, Bay Of Plenty, 3112, New Zealand

Perhaps one of Tauranga’s best kept secrets, this location on the outer fringes of the city feels like a country retreat with the neighbouring native bush and birdlife creating a special environment which the friendly locals cherish. This generous flat and fenced 701sqm property is perfect for families who love to hang out together, have mates and their kids around for a barbecue and create a home base to retreat to at the end of a busy week.

Constructed of reassuring brick and weatherboard, the 212 sqm home boasts a large sunny living area enhanced by full length glazing to let in light and warmth with a heat pump making it extra cozy in winter. Clever configuration of the layout means that living spaces embrace a private and sheltered covered patio area for entertaining and relaxing with a wall of stackable bi-folds creating an outdoor “room” to enjoy year-round.

The contemporary family-size kitchen in shades of white has all you need to cook up a storm with walk-in pantry, timeless white bench tops and stainless appliances. Four bedrooms maintain a trendy vibe and are well-served by two marine-inspired bathrooms with the master having an ensuite and walk-in wardrobe.

A generous separate laundry accesses the garden which has been sympathetically planted to be easy to care for and lovely to look at. The internally accessed double garage is set well back from the street with loads of off-street parking for visitors. You may feel a million miles from the hustle and bustle but it’s a short car trip off peak to the CBD and to Bayfair Shopping Centre.
