153B Oceanbeach Road, Mount Maunganui, Tauranga, Bay Of Plenty

In one of Mount Maunganui's most coveted coastal pockets, this freehold beachside residence captures everything people love about living at Omanu. Sitting just one property back from the shoreline, with a private gate opening directly onto the beach accessway, you are only forty-ish steps from the dunes. No roads to cross, no traffic to navigate - simply effortless, daily access to one of New Zealand's most treasured beaches. The elevated position embraces Pacific Ocean views to the east and west, while the north facing orientation fills the home with natural light throughout the day. Solidly constructed and enhanced with recent cosmetic upgrades, the property offers an easy care coastal lifestyle in a location where long term owners hold tight. Versatility is one of its greatest strengths. Split over two levels, the home adapts to almost any living arrangement. The entire downstairs level functions as a semi self contained suite, complete with its own entry, private courtyard, kitchenette and laundry. It is ideal for extended family, teenagers, guests or as an income earning option for those who appreciate flexibility in how they live or invest. Upstairs, generous open plan living connects naturally with the coastal surroundings. Large windows bring in ocean glimpses and the balcony offers an inviting vantage point to check the surf or unwind at the end of the day. Two bedrooms and a well appointed bathroom complete this level, unified by a relaxed, beachside feel that suits the home's setting. The floorplan is extensive without being overwhelming. Bedrooms and bathrooms on both levels provide privacy and separation when needed, while the interconnected living spaces strengthen the home's ability to evolve with family needs. A separate toilet adds thoughtful convenience to the home's already flexible layout. Outside, the easy care nature of the property becomes immediately clear. The fully enclosed courtyard creates a sheltered place to dine, relax or store boards and bikes. Storage is abundant, the oversized two car garage is a rare asset this close to the water, and there is secure off street parking for the boat, campervan or beach gear essential to Mount living. This is a home that delivers freedom - the freedom of a freehold site, the freedom to live upstairs or down, the freedom to host family or generate income, and above all, the freedom of direct, roadless access to the beach. Make this your new home in time for your best summer yet. Contact Dirk to learn how.
