14 Kempton Place, Richmond Heights, Taupo, Waikato

Tucked away on a peaceful cul-de-sac, this three-bedroom home makes the most of its private green backdrop and generous outdoor spaces - ideal for first or second home buyers, families, downsizers, or anyone looking for a holiday retreat.

Neat from the street and even better out back, the private rear yard is something magic. An expansive multi-level deck steps down to a spacious lawn framed by trees - perfect for summer evenings or weekend barbecues. Vehicle access to the rear adds extra flexibility for a boat, camper, or even a potential granny flat (subject to consent).

Inside, the home is tidy and comfortable with scope to add your own touch now or in the future. The layout includes a roomy lounge opening to a second deck, a separate dining area, functional kitchen, three bedrooms, bathroom with separate toilet, and laundry. Downstairs, a garage and workshop provide space for projects and storage. A wood burner, heat pump, heat transfer system, good insulation, and north-facing aspect all work together to keep the home snug year-round.

Set close to schools, local shops, the lake, and the Botanical Gardens, this is a spot that’s easy to love. Whether you’re starting out or settling in, this little gem is well worth a look.
