231 Valley Road, Mt Maunganui, Tauranga, Bay of Plenty

Perfectly positioned for sun and privacy, this adorable mid-century abode is packed with possibilities. Situated just one street back from the dunes of Mount Maunganui’s world-famous surf beaches, the family friendly home with fenced section is a place where tiny toes can race across the lawn, bikes can be ridden up and down the driveway, and childhood adventures unfold in the safety of your own backyard. Families will love the location, zoned for Omanu School and nestled within a tightly held coastal neighbourhood.

Retaining the charm of the 1960s and 70s, this 138sqm (approximate) home blends character with modern comfort. Light, airy interiors harness natural tones, with original native timber flooring complementing crisp white walls and slatted blinds. The sun-filled living room invites family moments, warmed by both a heat pump and a freestanding log burner for cosy winter nights. A full-length deck spills out to the private backyard, where lush lawns, mature trees, and a playhouse create an outdoor haven for little ones and pets.

The separate dining area, also opening to a front deck, shares space with the refreshed family-friendly kitchen, featuring marble laminate benchtops, a stainless steel cooker, and abundant cabinetry—perfect for busy mornings and relaxed evening meals. Three carpeted bedrooms include a generous master with its own private deck, shaded by mature trees. The family bathroom features a floating vanity, shower-over-bath combo, and sleek chrome fixtures, ideal for soothing sandy kids after a day at the beach.

Set on an elevated 607sqm (approximate) freehold section, the home is fully fenced and secured by an electric gate, offering peace of mind for families with little explorers. A single garage sits at the top of the driveway, while the spacious grounds provide ample room for the boat, trailer, or even a backyard cricket match.

Walking distance to the Mount Maunganui Golf Course, schooling at all levels, and the Omanu surf club, this is a home that blends nostalgic charm with modern-day practicality. With Bayfair’s shopping and dining precinct just minutes away, this is beachside living at its best—relaxed, easy, and full of possibility.
