Established plantings, fruit trees, a glasshouse and flat lawn create a private, family-friendly setting with plenty of room for kids and pets to play. Perhaps add in some raised veggie gardens for a bit of “grow your own” self-sufficiency. The separate double garage has been converted into a versatile covered space, ideal as a rumpus, hobby room, work-from-home setup or additional storage — with the option to reinstate it as a double garage if preferred. There’s also ample off-street parking for a camper or trailer. Zoned for Kapakapanui School, and ideally positioned on Te Moana Road with Mahara Place township at one end, the beach at the other, and easy access to the expressway in-between, this is a home with genuine heart, space and potential — and well worth seeing in person.
