Proximity to Tectpark outdoor recreational facility adds options to country lifestyle property \nThe proximity of this property to the burgeoning Tectpark (mountain biking, horse riding, trail bikes, rally driving etc) and the peace and privacy it offers on the Tauranga-Rotorua direct road suggests this property could be much more than a home for a large family. \nOriginally set up as a home stay it has three en-suited bedrooms with options for up to five bedrooms, so great for teenagers too. Spacious open plan living is warmed by a solid fuel fire with wetback and the wide front verandah offers ample shade and protection from sun and rain. \nThe 2.2475 ha rectangle property has shelter belts along each side and the rear boundary and is well fenced into four paddocks, with an attractive stand of native bush above a gentle gully.\nSheds include a separate 9x6 metre 'Versatile' garage beside the house and a hay and implement shed behind the post and rail fenced home grounds. The loading bay will be useful whether you run sheep, a few cattle, raise calves or enjoy having horses. \nThe local Pyes Pa school is a few kilometres back toward Tauranga which is an easy 20 minutes via the expressway, though the rapidly increasing amenities at Pyes Pa suggest you may not need to go to the CBD for your needs. It is 40 minutes to central Rotorua and five to the ever increasing recreational attractions of Tectpark which has proven a very popular addition to the many outdoor options offered in this region. \n\nLocation:\nFew regions in New Zealand or the world for that matter have as much to offer as the Bay of Plenty. From the gentle harbour waters to its surf beaches, its fishing and diving grounds to the scenic bush, the Bay is as much a quiet recreational playground as it is a thriving business and rural community.\nKey economic elements for the region include Tourism, Horticulture (predominately Kiwifruit and Avocado production), Viticulture, Pastoral farming, Forestry, Housing and Holiday Makers. The rapid growth in the area provides a vibrant living environment from job opportunities to business prospects with a sustainable future.\nTauranga as a city is one of the fastest, if not fastest growing cities in New Zealand. With a mixture of beautiful scenery, great beaches, cafes, restaurants and nightspots it is more than a city it is a lifestyle. The award winning schools also provide a key reason why Tauranga is proving to be such an attractive destination for both ex Kiwi's and migrants as a place to set up their new life in New Zealand.
