7 Otaiatoa Street, Tauranga Taupo

Whether you’re seeking a permanent home or a peaceful holiday escape, this spacious and thoughtfully designed residence offers the best of both worlds. Nestled in the lakeside settlement of Waitetoko. Just 15 minutes from Turangi and 30 minutes from Taupo, it’s a location that balances tranquillity with convenience. The upper level forms the heart of the home, with an open plan kitchen, dining and living area designed for easy entertaining. A wood burner keeps things cosy in winter, while a Fujitsu ceiling-mounted cassette provides cooling comfort through summer. The kitchen is a true standout, featuring a generous Caesarstone bench, abundant storage, three sinks, double oven, twin dish drawers, integrated fridge/freezer, ceramic hob and extractor, ideal for the keen home chef. French doors open to a large north-facing deck, where you can relax, entertain and soak up the lakeside atmosphere, complete with unforgettable sunsets. The master suite also occupies the top floor, offering a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite with underfloor heating and a luxurious walk-in shower. Downstairs, two generous bedrooms, a second lounge and a media room (or optional fourth bedroom) provide plenty of space for family and guests. A full bathroom with underfloor heating, separate shower and bath, plus a laundry, add to the practicality of the layout. The property also boasts excellent garaging: a double garage with internal access plus a dedicated 7.75m boat shed at the rear with a 2.45m door height, perfect for watercraft and outdoor gear. Built in 2008 by its current owners, this 266sqm home sits proudly on a 1,012sqm section, serviced by its own bore.
