Neighbouring the Waterfront...
Neighbouring the Waterfront...
Watching the silver path of the rising moon over a full tide from the patio on a summer evening is just one of the magical vistas from this three bedroom plus office townhouse.
Crews of rowers passing silently on the glassy harbour water as the sun rises are another vista from your kitchen window.
The 1980s brick and timber fully insulated single level home enjoys superior status in its inner city location and always will, it sits above the waterfront and has direct access to it.
Top quality renovations in 2004 sees the approx. 173 square meter home offering all the comforts and security expected in a modern home, internal entry from the 37 square meter double garage, a security system, air conditioning and two bathrooms are just a few.
The practical, top quality kitchen services not only a breakfast bar and dining room but a perfectly positioned alfresco patio on the morning-sun-warmed side of the home. It is from here that the 180 degree outlook from the deep harbour water in the north to Motuopuhi Island in the South is a full panorama.
Generous flat lawns and gardens beyond the patio offer an ideal venue for bigger social occasions. From here a private access meanders through loved gardens to the harbour water front across a short strip of esplanade reserve. Here are just the beginnings of a marine playground with safe swimming at full tide.
With a small-boat launching ramp within 250 metres and boat parking on the property, the full glory of the Tauranga Harbour with the guidance of its channel markers extends the maritime playground.
This address is one of only a few that looks over and has direct access to the waterfront. Being within one kilometre of downtown shopping, restaurants, cafes, movies and entertainment puts 240 Devonport Road in the rare category.
