Lawn-to-Lake Waterfront
When a home has that innate ability to tug the heart strings, it's testimony to the memories of a happy life. Sitting on the shores of Lake Rotorua, not far from the heart of town, this prized spot has been cherished for more than 30 years by this vendor.
Family grew up here; revelled in the space of this typical kiwi quarter acre - water on the doorstep - complete with a boat ramp for recreation and thermal waters lapping the foreshore. Gazing out to Mokoia Island, this home basks in dawn-to-dusk sun - steeped in Rotorua's rich history and perfectly placed to enjoy its downtown appeal.
Generous at around 210 square metres - excluding extensive garaging - this home has adapted to changing trends, while retaining its character.
The kitchen blends traditional appeal, while catering for cooks with a large stove and the enduring preference of stainless counters. The bathroom also pays homage to tradition with the classic claw-foot bath, while separate living areas offer rooms with defined purpose. A formal dining room has space for dressers and drinks. A sun room bathes in sunlight for café-style relaxation, while the lounge has a built-in wood burner to snuggle up around come TV time. French doors open out from here to that lawn-to-lake expanse and spectacular view. The main bedroom also opens out to this verandah setting and that stroll down to the lake front.
Extensive garaging provides ample room for cars, bikes and separate workshop facilities. This home even has its own pool house - a cottage style room with a thermal plunge pool to soothe the soul and refresh the mind.
Near parks and reserves, this home is also handy to Rotorua's aquatic centre, hospital, shops and the brilliant revamp of Rotorua's lakefront playground.
Living here - just far enough away in the peace and quiet of its own lakefront corner - this property certainly has the advantage of being on the doorstep of Rotorua's vibe. Whether revelling in the character of the home as it is now, or adapting to another new chapter.
