Crafted Avenues character
The central Avenues is one of Tauranga's most sought after locations, renowned for its timeless character homes, excellent schools, proximity to amenities, and lovely water views. 156 Grace Road is a shining example of this heritage - a beautifully, extensively renovated weatherboard and brick classic, brimming with character and charm. Formerly owned by a cabinet maker, most of the homes design features and cabinetry have been meticulously crafted for modern family living.
Perched on a gentle slope, this home offers lovely views of the inner harbour. At its heart, a stylish granite and shaker-style kitchen with a spacious scullery and dedicated drinks station is illuminated by a large skylight above. Flowing from the central dining area, you'll find an elegant lounge with picture windows framing the water views, or step outside onto a sun-soaked deck overlooking a stunning pool area complete with a trickling water feature and outdoor fireplace.
Inside, three generous bedrooms have retained their original character, with one currently serving as an office fitted with bespoke bookshelves and a clever tilt-away bed for guests. The family bathroom across the hall is a sanctuary of its own, complete with a deep claw-foot bath, extensive custom storage, and an adjacent chic powder room. At the end of the hall, the private master suite awaits - a peaceful retreat opening onto a serene courtyard, where the gentle sound of flowing water provides the ultimate relaxation.
A second lounge, warmed by a log gas fire, offers a cozy space to unwind, opening onto a small harbour-facing deck with even more water views. Thoughtfully placed skylights flood the home with natural light, while decorative leadlight windows and original features enhance the timeless character of this warm, inviting family home.
Positioned in the heart of a prestigious neighborhood, this is a home that effortlessly blends classic charm with modern living, offering a superb low maintenance lifestyle.
