Vintage Soul, Modern Heart
Nestled in the heart of Tauranga's coveted Central Avenues, this beautifully preserved 1940s Art Deco stucco residence is offered to market for the first time in over 28 years - a testament to enduring family life and timeless design. Set on a generous full site, the home is framed by lush lawns, mature trees, and manicured gardens that create a private sanctuary in one of the city's most desirable neighbourhoods.
Thoughtfully extended and meticulously maintained, the home blends vintage charm with contemporary comfort. Original rimu timber floors, curved walls, and ornate plaster detailing have been lovingly retained and replicated, while modern upgrades ensure effortless living. The layout is both elegant and practical, with multiple living zones that cater to entertaining, relaxation, and family connection.
The light filled kitchen is a standout, sleek, spacious, and designed for those who love to cook and host. It flows seamlessly to the dining and out through French doors to a sun drenched north facing deck and sheltered backyard, perfect for alfresco gatherings or quiet morning coffees. A separate formal lounge with wood burning fire adds cosy ambience in cooler months.
Accommodation is generous and flexible: Three large bedrooms, a versatile office or fourth bedroom, and a separate studio/workshop ideal for creative pursuits or remote work. The master suite, is a luxurious retreat featuring a chic en-suite, walk in dressing room, and French doors opening to the central deck.
Practicality is well considered, with internal access to a spacious double garage, large enough for a boat, plus a second single garage currently styled as a 'man cave' with drive through access. 
Additional features include ample storage, excellent natural light, and a layout that offers both privacy and connection.
