This beautifully maintained character home in central Whakatāne offers family living in a convenient location, close to schools and shopping centres.

The 140-square-metre three-bedroom home is located up a right-of-way, well away from the road and is fully fenced for privacy and security.

It has been home to its current owners for 14 years. They are now moving on having enjoyed their time living in this comfortable, welcoming and sunny mid-century home – making improvements to the interior and creating a beautiful outdoor living environment.

Although there remains potential for new owners to stamp their personality on the place, this home is move-in ready and the perfect place to enjoy summer with multiple formal and informal living areas and spaces for outdoor entertaining.

The house is surrounded by other quality homes and friendly neighbours. There are primary and secondary schools within easy walking distance and Whakatāne Hospital is just around the corner.

The weatherboard home was built in the 1950s and has been well maintained and
improved over the years to suit modern
living requirements.

The living areas are north-facing with the country-style kitchen, with walk-in pantry, opening to the dining room/family room. French doors open from here to a tiled patio area with pergola that provides a sheltered place for outdoor dining.

This entertaining space is screened for privacy and with a north-easterly aspect, enjoys sun for much
of the day.

The dining area flows through to another informal living/office space with French
doors that open onto a covered porch that is suitable for year-round entertaining.

Step down into the garden and you’ll find more space to relax and entertain, with high boundary fencing providing privacy from the neighbour. Inside, there is also a more formal lounge, separate but connected to the general easy flow of the home.

Off the hallway, there at three good size bedrooms, a separate toilet and a large family bathroom that incorporates the laundry.

A wood burner fireplace, heat transfer system and a DVS provide year-round comfort.

A lot of thought has gone into developing the surprisingly spacious section, which is well fenced/gated and landscaped for children and pets with border gardens, hardcourt areas, plenty of lawn and a well-screened garden shed/utility area.

There is also a separate double garage with plenty of parking outside.

Like the interior, the landscaping is aesthetically appealing and flows beautifully.
