62L Grace Road, Tauranga South, Tauranga, Bay Of Plenty

Completed in 2024 and still under the Signature Homes 10-year weathertightness guarantee, this beautifully crafted home combines timeless English country charm with a high-spec, low-maintenance finish. Behind its classic exterior lies a fully contemporary build, with double glazing, modern insulation and quality joinery providing comfort, efficiency and ease of living year-round. Every material has been intentionally selected for longevity and minimal upkeep, allowing the home to retain its appearance without the ongoing demands often associated with traditional finishes. Set across an architecturally designed 198m² floor plan on a 393m² site, with a further 52m² of decks and patios. Elevated to capture a pleasant outlook, the upper level is where daily living unfolds. The lounge opens to a balcony, while the dining space flows effortlessly outdoors into elegant, park-like surroundings. A paved patio connects to a hedge-lined garden and lawn, while a sculpted raised pond with water lilies and wisteria adds to the home’s calm and established feel. At the centre, the kitchen reflects the home’s design intent — farmhouse sink, quality fittings and soft neutral cabinetry that feels both considered and enduring. Accommodation is thoughtfully arranged across both levels. The primary suite sits privately downstairs, opening through double doors to a covered patio, and is complemented by a beautifully appointed bathroom featuring twin basins, a freestanding bath and separate shower. Two additional bedrooms, a second bathroom, separate toilet, ample storage and internal garaging support the home’s practical day-to-day living. Externally, the home carries real presence. Red brick, weatherboard detailing and a tiled roof give a nod to traditional English architecture, while composite decking and carefully chosen materials continue the theme of durability and low maintenance. Set within a peaceful pocket of Tauranga South, the surrounding trees attract regular tui, bringing birdsong into daily life.
