2/199 Papamoa Beach Road, Papamoa, Tauranga, Bay Of Plenty

Tucked within a gated coastal community off Papamoa Beach Road, this is beachside living made beautifully easy, with shared beach access on the title and no roads to cross between you and the sand.

The home has been renovated and extended with a timeless coastal feel, so it still presents fresh, stylish and ready to enjoy. Flexible, full of character and designed for relaxed coastal living, it is currently configured as three bedrooms, two bathrooms, two living areas, an office, games room and internal-access garaging, with options to reimagine the layout to suit family, guests, working from home or extended living.

From the moment you arrive, there is a genuine sense of escape. Lush established planting, resort-style gardens, a large communal green space, pétanque area and community tennis court all contribute to a setting that feels more like an international retreat than a typical suburban address, yet the home itself remains warm, grounded and incredibly liveable.

At the heart of the home, the kitchen, living and dining area is designed for connection. The kitchen is a genuine standout, with premium SMEG appliances, generous bench space and beautiful bespoke lighting, creating a space that feels both elevated and welcoming. A wood burner, two heat pumps and partial double glazing ensure comfort through the seasons.

Outdoors, the property becomes truly memorable. The living opens into a private Indonesian-inspired garden sanctuary, complete with palms, lush plantings, tranquil water feature, a custom outdoor stone bath, outdoor fire / pizza oven. It is atmospheric, peaceful and made for entertaining, the kind of setting where you instantly feel on holiday, but completely at home.

Upstairs, the master suite is its own retreat, with a generous his-and-hers walk-in wardrobe, sumptuous ensuite with double vanities and private balcony. Downstairs, a beautifully finished main bathroom with separate toilet services the additional bedrooms and living spaces with ease.

Practicality has also been carefully considered, with substantial shedding along the boundary providing excellent storage for tools, bikes, boards, beach gear and hobbies, while the main living and outdoor entertaining areas sit tucked away in their own private world.

And the lifestyle here is incredibly convenient. Park the car and leave it there. Walk to Fresh Choice, Pearl Kitchen and Goodhome Bar and Bistro, head straight through the complex to the beach, or make the most of nearby bus connections. For families, Tahatai Coast School is an easy bike ride away, with Mount College zoning adding further appeal.

Private, flexible and full of personality, this is a renovated beachside home with genuine lifestyle depth, secure, walkable, resort-like in feel, and just moments from the sand.
