They Don't Make Them Like This Anymore

There is something special about a home that has stood for more than a century – and this beautiful 1920s villa has all the character, warmth and presence that makes these homes so loved.

Set on a generous 888sqm (approx) freehold section in the heart of Ngongotahā, this is a home that has been genuinely lived in and loved. Behind its classic villa facade, you'll find the beautiful proportions and character you'd expect of its era, combined with the modern comforts that make everyday life easy.

Generous living spaces lead out to a large covered deck flowing from the lounge – a fantastic extension of the home and a favourite spot for entertaining or simply relaxing outdoors.

Year-round comfort is well catered for too, with a wood burner, heat pump, HRV ventilation system and heat transfer system already in place. A separate laundry and the convenience of two toilets add to the home's everyday practicality.

One of the home's most versatile spaces is the adjoining sunroom. Lovingly used over the years as a children's playroom, it's a space with plenty of potential. Enjoy it as it is, give it a refresh, or explore how this additional space could be used to further enhance the home and make it your own.

And for families, the location is hard to beat. Ngongotahā Primary School is quite literally across the road, with early childhood education right next door – making the school run about as easy as it gets. Ngongotahā village is close at hand, while easy access to SH5 and SH36 puts Rotorua, Hamilton and the direct route through to Tauranga within easy reach.

With approximately 150sqm of character-filled living and more than 100 years of history behind her, this is a home with a story already written – and plenty of room for the next owners to write their own.

It's simply ready for its next chapter.
