30A Pohutukawa Place, Bell Block, New Plymouth, Taranaki

Perched on an elevated 1,060sqm (more or less) site with sweeping views across the coast, mountain and neighbouring countryside, this stately residence combines the grandeur of a Victorian villa with the comfort and convenience of contemporary living.

Behind its classic weatherboard façade and bay windows, the home has undergone thoughtful upgrades that enhance both function and lifestyle. From the moment you step inside, it’s clear that every detail has been considered - from the updated amenities to the seamless integration of light-filled spaces.

The five-bedroom configuration upstairs provides ample space for family or guests, with each room offering a unique perspective - whether it's the ocean, the mountain, or surrounding landscape. A traditionally inspired jack and jill bathroom services both the master suite and additional bedrooms on this level, offering both convenience and character with its dual access design and timeless finishes. Other areas of the home have been elevated with modern enhancements, including a complete re-wire, fully re-plumbed throughout the home, ceiling and underfloor insulation along with central heating for everyday ease.

The casual living, dining, and kitchen zones flow effortlessly out to the veranda, with indoor-outdoor living made easy thanks to multiple access points. A formal lounge with a solid brick surround and wood burner adds warmth and charm, while a generous third living area and adjoining sunroom provide flexibility for a work-from-home setup or additional relaxation zone.

Outdoor entertaining is well-catered for with a range of inviting spaces - from the courtyard complete with a pizza oven and grapevine canopy to the spa area and veranda overlooking green paddocks.

Practicality is also covered, with a three-car garage (partially lined), extra space for a campervan or boat, and off-street parking all tucked behind the home’s private entrance.
