Charming Central City Bungalow
This charming 1930s two-bedroom weatherboard home in a quiet and leafy neighbourhood has stood the test of time as Tauranga has grown up and flourished around it. Nestled amidst established trees the charm of waking to the tui giving a sing-song performance in the mornings adds to the aura. The flat and fenced cross lease property at street frontage will be calling to first home buyers, downsizers, and health professionals wanting hospital proximity. Still featuring some of the artisan elements of an earlier time, there's scope to compatibly modernise and enhance the creature comforts already in place.
Interior features showcase leadlight glazing and prodigious use of native timbers to architraves, built in cabinetry and joinery. A separate lounge has a log burner and cosy heat pump with French doors segregating this from the spacious dining room flanking the old school kitchen. Here, timber joinery has been utilised along with a stainless-steel benchtop and standalone electric range. Two double bedrooms have plenty of closet space and the larger includes the home's second heat pump. A modernised bathroom comprises shower, heated towel rail and vanity while the toilet is conveniently separate. A large washhouse/laundry room has ample space to drop off the wet weather gear beside the back door and the single detached garage has workshop and storage space. There are lawns around the house for the kids to safely play and a deck and patio ready for barbecue season.
Within minutes of the city centre and walking distance to Tauranga Hospital for work, the home is minutes from both Gate Pa and Fraser Cove Shopping Centres and handy for Memorial Park. Easy for commuters to join the flow for arterial route travel to Tauriko, the Mount and beyond and the Historic Village is down the hill for art and craft events, shops, and leisure activities for the family.
