10 Rushton Avenue, Otumoetai, Tauranga, Bay of Plenty Designer 70s Chic with Views and Options

Properties like this seldom come on the market in Tauranga and this idiosyncratic 1970s classic has retained all the hallmarks of the era in its tasteful contemporised refurbishment. The current 214 sqm (approx.) California ranch-house styled residence with sleek linear profile could easily be reconfigured downstairs to create self-catering accommodation for extended family or for useful income yield.

Hinuera stone colludes with a unique sapphire and amber glazed wall to define the front entrance and reception lobby anchored by polished concrete flooring. The timeless sense of Kiwi culture is apparent as you move through the artisan interior. A massive open plan lounge and dining area have ash-toned flooring, funky atmospheric lighting, and a dazzling glass block wall in the stairwell. A wall of glass faces north maximising the panorama of Mauao, harbour, Port of Tauranga and the nearby Otumoetai golf course. The new designer kitchen will get any keen foodie's heart racing with Caesarstone benches, matt black fittings and SMEG appliances. Accommodation ranges across both floors with four of the six carpeted bedrooms upstairs. The ground floor's lounge has more concrete flooring and connects to a front patio bordering tiered lawns that step down to the rear boundary. Each of the two bathrooms has been tastefully curated with upstairs featuring twin vessels atop wall hung vanity while the ground floor version is a fully tiled showstopper with freestanding tub. There is abundant storage on both floors with a large separate laundry and internal access single garage, off-street parking, and double carport at the front door.

Close to Bureta shops, waterfront walkways and city centre, this unique brick and block home is situated in coveted Pillans Point School zone. The colossal freehold 830 sqm (approx.) full site section may have possibilities for a future subdivision subject to council approval and resource consent.
