17 Te Hono Street, Maungatapu, Tauranga, Bay Of Plenty

Perfectly poised high above the bay in a prized Maungatapu enclave, this unique home gazes across the shimmering waters of Tauranga Harbour. Set on 868m² of elevated tranquillity, it offers panoramic views, generous space and endless potential. A rare canvas for families wanting room to grow, renovators seeking character, or developers ready to create something extraordinary. The vendor is motivated and keen to receive offers, presenting an exceptional opportunity in a tightly held location.

Step inside to a sunlit living area which frames sweeping estuary views, where harbour and distant hills become part of everyday life. The spacious open-plan lounge and dining flows seamlessly to the outdoors, while a cosy fireplace and heat pump ensure year-round comfort. Charming window seats invite moments of quiet reflection or a wonderful spot to enjoy morning coffee while taking in the harbour vistas.

With four bedrooms, bathrooms on both levels, plus a separate rumpus or office, the home accommodates families, multi-generational living, or creative redesign.

The generous grounds invite imagination - whether to renovate, rebuild, or redevelop (subject to council consent) - with space for a pool, garden retreat, or expansion. A double garage, carport, and ample off-street parking to complete the package.

Step outside to enjoy birdsong, sea breezes, and coastal trails at Rotary Park just a short stroll away. From here, mornings bring golden light over the water, while evenings fade to spectacular sunset reflections across the bay.

Rarely does a property like this appear in such a coveted, private coastal setting, ready for its next chapter.

We welcome your early inspection, as this inviting home is sure to capture plenty of interest.
