136A Maketu Road, Paengaroa, Western Bay of Plenty

This hidden retreat is unlike anything else on the market and is selling with urgency - be ready to bid! You won't see it from the road, and that's the point; it's waiting for someone who's not looking for just another house, but for a place with heart, character, and instant livability.

The delightful cottage is fully fenced, private, peaceful, and full of unexpected surprises. Step inside and you'll find a seriously stylish renovation, a home that feels handcrafted with love and a touch of design magic. The kitchen is new with thoughtful cabinetry and an open layout that makes cooking and entertaining feel effortless.

There are three bedrooms; two offering comfort and space, while the third could be a child's room, office, music room or creative hideout. The tiled bathroom is exquisitely tasteful with Italian fixtures while the lounge seamlessly steps out to the covered decking area for you to enjoy indoor/outdoor chill time, anytime. The spa pool completes the ambiance of this area.

Just when you think it could not get much better, add in a 12x6m saltwater pool sparkling at the centre of the property. It's big, it's bold, and it brings summer to life. Throw in a few friends, a BBQ, and some good music, and you've got yourself an instant lifestyle upgrade.

Then, there is the shed. Industrial in style, the four bay shed/mancave comprises two standard and two high stud ceilings, a mechanics pit, and space for just about anything - trucks, boats, campervans, or your dream creative studio. It's a rare find, and it opens the door to a whole new level of flexibility.

Outside, the section is thoughtfully landscaped with raised gardens, a fruit and citrus orchard and space to breathe. It's simple, just unpack and start living. A little bit funky, a lot of fun, and totally unforgettable, this place has soul.

Call now. View it. Feel it. Fall in love. But don't wait, this one is going to move.
