Framed by established gardens and fruit trees, this 1295sqm property delivers a lifestyle where space, character and family living come together with ease.

Built in the 1970's, this solid brick home radiates the kind of character that is now in high demand. Rich native timber flooring brings warmth, while bespoke inbuilt furniture showcases the craftsmanship of its mid century era. These original details set the home apart, offering an authentic retro charm that blends beautifully with modern living. Inside, the layout provides three generous bedrooms including a master suite with its own walk-in wardrobe. Separate living and dining spaces create room for family connection. It's a home that balances everyday practicality with enduring personality.

Outdoors, the lifestyle becomes truly extraordinary. This is more than a backyard, it is a self-sustaining haven designed for abundance throughout the year. An impressive edible garden unfolds with a feijoa hedge, three varieties of plums, citrus including Meyer lemon, tangelo, mandarin, grapefruit and both Washington navel and Harwood late oranges, along with pear, Granny Smith apple, avocado and apricot. Adding to the richness are olive trees, passionfruit vines, Albany Surprise grapes, a raspberry bush and a large vegetable garden ready for fresh seasonal harvests.

The grounds are further enhanced by established native trees, including Kauri, Kowhai and Pohutukawa, adding beauty and a timeless New Zealand touch. Sunlit lawns invite children and pets to roam safely in the fully fenced yard, while a patio sets the perfect scene for long summer evenings. Practicality is assured with a large garage and workshop, a double carport with excellent storage, and the bonus of an extra outside toilet for convenience. Ample parking means there is space for a boat, trailer or motorhome, ensuring the property caters to every stage of family life.

Tuakau itself completes the picture. A short walk takes you to schools, sports fields and the vibrant village centre where cafes, shops and services create a community atmosphere supported by everyday convenience. Properties of this calibre are increasingly rare. This is your opportunity to secure not just a home but a lifestyle to be proud of.
