If you’ve ever travelled the road between Te Puke and Rotorua, chances are you’ve looked across at this hidden haven and wondered what lies beyond. Now the curtain of mystery is lifted. As you wind your way up the bush-clad drive, anticipation builds until suddenly it appears, a truly unique bungalow that breathes life and character into its surroundings, ready to capture your senses and spark your imagination. Step inside and you’ll find three generous bedrooms, each with its own inviting charm, and two spacious living areas that provide the perfect balance of family connection and quiet retreat. The kitchen blends modern convenience with timeless appeal, while a nearly complete bedsit, accented by striking wooden beams, waits for your finishing touch. The home is fitted with a solar electric panel on the roof, offering energy efficiency and reduced power costs. Set across two titles, the property rests among mature grounds dotted with fruit trees, while the land itself tells its own story. Rolling hills give way to steep contours and flat valley floors, offering opportunity and adventure in equal measure. A large shed with a solid concrete floor stands ready for all the gear, projects and dreams you wish to bring to life. The property boasts an abundant variety of fruit trees and plants, including peach, apple, loquat, plum, lemon, feijoa, macadamia nut, avocado, tamarillo, and blueberries — perfect for those who love homegrown produce. Plus a small stand of pines for future use.  This is more than a property—it’s an invitation to create, to imagine, and to make something truly special your own.

Nestled on the very edge of Lake Rotoiti, this charming lakeside retreat captures everything we love about classic New Zealand holiday living. From the moment you arrive, the sparkling water sets the scene, so close it feels like an extension of the home itself. Designed for relaxed days and long summer evenings, the heart of the bach is its open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area. These spaces flow seamlessly onto a covered veranda and expansive decking, creating effortless indoor-outdoor living. Whether you’re cooking up a feast, unwinding with a book, or gathering around the table for cards, the lake is always front and centre. Accommodation includes two bedrooms, a family bathroom, and two bonus snugs perfect for extra bunks comfortably hosting up to nine guests. Outside, the sweeping lawn adds even more flexibility, with space for tents, campervans, and friends or family keen to join the holiday fun. Set on a generous 2,402 sqm leasehold section shared with just one other sublessor, the property benefits from a rare 50/50 lease split, an appealing and affordable opportunity to secure a foothold in one of Lake Rotoiti’s most sought-after locations. Picture early-morning paddles, children splashing at the water’s edge, and evenings spent under the veranda as the sun slips behind the hills. And when you’re ready for a treat, the iconic Okere Store, renowned for great coffee and its laid-back craft beer garden, is just a short swim or paddle away.
