Make Big Plans in Booming Brookfield

Positioned to make the best of the beautiful sunshine and situated in a central location handy for Bethlehem, Tauriko and the city centre, this gorgeous, tidy three-bedroom home will appeal to first home buyers, downsizers and investors. Reassuringly built in the 1970s of brick and shadow-clad, the cross lease single level dwelling on an easy-care established section has been well-maintained over the years.

The main open plan living room has a cheerful colour scheme and benefits from indoor/outdoor flow onto a superbly sunny elevated deck where barbecues will be the order of the day come summer. A spacious dining nook flanks the contemporary kitchen with its enduring timber benchtop, and copious neutral toned cabinetry. A large laundry has built-in benchtop favouring busy family wash-days and the back door's adjacent to access the line. Three double bedrooms off the central hall all have built in closets and are well-served by a spacious tiled-floor bathroom, updated in recent years with trendy vanity, modern fittings and shower over the bath. Morning rush hour queues at home will be a thing of the past with a separate toilet.

The single lock up garage adjoins the neighbouring one at the rear and there's plenty of room to store the garden tools. Fully fenced and comprising gardens big enough for the young ones to scamper, lawns and trees dot the perimeter and include fruiting citrus for the lemon cake to accompany coffees on the deck. Desirably located close to Cambridge Heights shops, Brookfield's New World at the crossroads, motorway ramps and the beautiful Gordon Carmichael Reserve and Tauranga Wetlands for a stroll with the dog. In zone and close to excellent schools including Brookfield School, Otumoetai Intermediate and Otumoetai College with bus transport close by.
