33 Turangitukua Terrace, Whareroa, Turangi, Waikato

Turn off the Western-Bays arterial road and find yourself winding through, idyllic rolling green farm paddocks and then - you gasp - as the expansive view opens up. The azure of Lake Taupo, reaching far to the East to the banks of Motuoapa the Kaimanawa's nestled in behind. To the North Mt Tauhara, and to the South, the trio of snow-capped mountains, tucked in behind the lady Mt Pihanga. This is Whareroa, and you smile, as this is the view you see every time you drive home. Turning onto Turangitukua Terrace you spy your magnificent property, at the top of the cul-de-sac, looking back at the lake view but also offering a valley view behind of pine and paddock. Safely parked in your four-car garage, with room for the boat and toys, you internally head upstairs.

Now that I've set the scene, let's talk about this house! Upstairs are three supersized bedrooms, each with their own ensuite, walk in wardrobe and individual layout. The large living/dining room is open plan and can accommodate many, with large bi-fold doors allowing for flow onto the huge deck spanning the East and North. The spectacular views are achievable from the living/dining room, kitchen and the deck. The kitchen is well appointed and spacious, with all the modern facilities and two sinks. The home is heated by a closed wood-fire and one heat pump. Downstairs, a fully self-contained flat, of two double bedrooms, toilet, bathroom with a bath, and a kitchen/living area - currently used as a home and income area. Use this 300sm of space for one family to spread out or many to come together to meet and mingle. Join the other 17 permanent local homes or holiday like the other hundred odd. The brilliant idea of each upstairs room having its own ensuite lends itself to an Air BnB, a hunting lodge, or would keep any teenagers happy. Downstairs can be easily returned to a fully self-contained flat or continue as a space to work from home. The grounds are easy care and tidy. Call today to view and to make that smile yours.
