614 Kaitemako Road, Welcome Bay, Tauranga, Bay of Plenty

Imagine grabbing a picnic basket and meandering through protected New Zealand bush to your very own waterfall and swimming hole. And then imagine coming home to a gorgeous, bespoke modern cottage that overlooks the land. If this sounds like your dream home... keep reading.

Set in the upper parts of Kaitemako Road you will find this very special property. Having been in this family for 40 years it is now time to pass the care of this significant National Treasure to someone new. With approximately 8 acres of native bush that is protected under the Queen Elizabeth II National Heritage Trust it is truly something special. At the heart of this sanctuary you will find a 12 meter high waterfall that continues downstream to a swimming hole. Approximately 4000m2 of grassland in front of the cottage has potential to be turned into a large lawn, home orchard or perhaps a paddock or two.

Built and completed in 2020, the bespoke modern cottage offers something unique. From the bright green front door with a real ships porthole in it, you are carried through the home past the generous master bedroom, to the huge open plan living area and expansive North facing deck that spans the length of the home and overlooks the land. The beautiful Palazzo kitchen is complimented by the generous dining area, separate laundry and a very convenient central office that also doubles as a single bedroom. Let's not forget the beautiful fully tiled bathroom with heated floor.

Next door the large single garage offers drive through convenience and plenty of space. Above you will find a consented second room. Ideal as a guest bedroom, home office, studio or even an air BnB, there is scope here to complete the picture.

Properties like this are rare and for those that appreciate space, tranquillity and all that nature has to offer will feel at home.
