On a hilltop not far outside Tauranga city a panoramic plateau provides a ‘hang glider’ outlook to the north over Tauranga city, Mauao and coastline, and out to the rolling rural hills at the rear. There is huge potential in the flat lawn that sweeps out in front of the existing structures.

The property boasts a two-level shed and another large garage and workshop with a big easily accessible attic, both crafted in locally milled lawsoniana. Corten steel is a feature in the kitchen, bathroom and doors of the intriguing, double-glazed shed with massive mezzanine wrapped around the stairwell, and five French doors from ground floor open ground level to recycled brick under bull nose veranda. Copper pipes, soakers and spouting, and galvanized steel roof, complete the artisan building.

The siting of the two buildings and a small cabin suggests that a home could be built on the remaining ample flat land, existing structures serving as atmospheric studio or additional accommodation. There is plenty of scope to ensure a new build would maximize exposure to the vista without compromising the character and charm of the in-situ buildings. And you’d have a fun and functional place to enjoy while planning for your future.

Mature deciduous trees on the flat and surrounding slopes admit sunshine in winter and provide dappled shade in summer here where all your options are enhanced by an awe-inspiring outlook.

The property is at the end of a cul de sac country road not far above the Ohauiti community hall, handy to city amenities.

Only permitted as a shed, inspections on the 'dwelling' were started but never finished - Purchaser to do own due diligence on this.
