7 Sutherland Avenue Mt Maunganui, Tauranga City

Take this entree to coastal living with stand-out views of the Mount and develop further to create the perfect future for your family. Already a spacious, comfortable elevated home located on a freehold site of 478m2 in a highly sought-after street, this four-bedroom two-bathroom home is ripe for the picking. This is the long game where finite property on Mount Maunganui's tightly-held peninsula is the reality and securing a place to renovate, re-clad, or start from scratch for your dream retreat, makes perfect sense. Investment for the yield by listing on Bach-care should also be incorporated into the opportunity mix here - with the option to purchase fully or partially furnished.

Three levels of sun-filled, easy living present a range of spaces for the whole family with most of the entertaining areas on the middle floor where a large living room opens to the spacious conservatory and the outdoors. A modern kitchen with pleasant outlook caters for a crowd so this summer might consist of a full calendar of barbecues. Accommodation has been arranged over two levels with the master bedroom and ensuite/bathroom occupying a splendid top floor retreat from which to admire the nearby peak of Mauao while chilling out in the second casual lounge.

The established private grounds have coastal-friendly plantings and useful dual access on the corner of Wells Avenue. Double garages internally accessed and room outside to park the boat or camper, this handy location means that within minutes you can be riding a wave or lounging on the sand with a great read. For a caffeine fix and sweet treat, a whole lot of outstanding cafes are within a short walking radius - Elspeth's, Mixture, Tay Street, with the boutique and bar mecca of the Mount main street just waiting for you.

A coastal vision for the future - a rare opportunity of Mount living at its best, minutes to the beach and town centre.
