45 Pillans Road, Otumoetai, Tauranga, Bay Of Plenty

This is a home that makes no apologies for its scale, its presence, or the lifestyle it delivers.

Originally built in 1958 and thoughtfully evolved over time, this substantial circa-400sqm, primarily masonry residence, blends authentic mid-century character with refined modern living. Positioned on an elevated, north-facing 800sqm site in Pillan’s Point, where sea views capture beautifully both Mount Maunganui and Matakana Island setting the stage for sun-soaked, resort-style living.

The owners are relocating to Christchurch and are committed to moving forward. As a result, the property is now priced by negotiation for a limited time, creating a genuine opportunity for buyers who recognize value and are ready to act.

The main living level sets the tone with rich Tawa hardwood floors, ornate scotia, and generous proportions that deliver a feeling of permanence rarely found today. The well-appointed kitchen anchors the heart of the home, designed for gatherings with living and dining flowing effortlessly to expansive north-facing decking where the outlook here becomes part of your everyday life. The door off the kitchen's back pantry takes you down to the pool where the resort theme is undeniable. Private, secure, and beautifully landscaped, the outdoor living here centres around a two metre deep in-ground pool, purpose-built with length for swimming laps, entertaining, and long summer days. This is not a backyard designed around lawn and maintenance, but a deliberate lock-and-leave entertainer’s sanctuary. A substantial louvred alfresco dining zone further enhances the scene ready for unforgettable gatherings be that just your family or your wider crew.

Full perimeter concrete walls, electronic gates, and abundant off-street parking all further foster a sense of privacy, security and ease of living.

The four bedrooms could only be described as generously sized and they all enjoy inspirational wide sea views with the added sparkle of evening city lights reminding you just how close you are to town.

The lower level is where this home truly separates itself once again from the ordinary. A large games lounge, home theatre, office, designated gym, custom-built bar and wine cellar room create exceptional flexibility few homes can offer. Polished concrete floors and triple internal-access garaging complete a level designed for those who value space, functionality, and lifestyle.

This is a bold, substantial home, designed for buyers who want scale, privacy, and a resort-style lifestyle, and are looking for a home that is intentionally different.

With the vendors committed to their next chapter, this is the moment to view, engage, and negotiate. Opportunities of this calibre, size, and position are seldom found and rarely offered with such clear motivation.
