Outdoors, the 4,100sqm grounds are a gardeners paradise, boasting 15 thriving avocado trees, several raised garden beds, a mix of citrus trees and a 6.4 x 2.6m glasshouse for year-round harvests. A separate 9 x 6m garage provides workshop and storage space for the car or other toys, while a "Life Pod" office with hyper fibre makes working from home effortless. One of the true highlights is the propertys legal access to the pristine riverside esplanade below. Here youll find sparkling ponds nicely planted and alive with birdlife, a jetty and boat ramp for launching the jet ski or kayak into the Waipapa River which leads into the Tauranga Harbour. The perfect picnic spot while the kids swim or bomb off the jetty.
