Charming 1950’s Beach Bungalow

We often describe properties in central Mount Maunganui as ‘one-off’, ‘unique’ or ‘rare’ – 26 Riverton Road ticks all of these! Set beautifully on its elevated 812sqm (more or less) freehold site boasting a wide street frontage, this original 1950’s cottage has been lovingly restored using a sympathetic blend of the old and new. Greeting your guests via a perfectly formed tropical garden, is a covered front porch – a place for warm welcomes, watching the people go by or the sun come up. Many summer evenings have been spent here sipping and chatting overlooking the garden and pool.

The heart of the home is the modern kitchen with seamless indoor/outdoor flow to the spacious entertaining deck overlooking the sparkling blue waters of the pool and sub-tropical gardens. Bask in the holiday vibes, invite friends over and sip cocktails beneath glorious sunsets or laze awhile and take in the ever-changing unobstructed views out to Mauao. With summer coming, the inevitable flow of family and guests will be catered for, with the added benefit of an adorable sleep-out with kitchenette, bathroom and lounge.

Features are many:
– Timber flooring and yesteryear original features
– Main house hosts four bedrooms and one bathroom with separate toilet
– Separate laundry
– HRV system
– Salt water swimming pool with pergola
– Fully fenced with generous off street parking with room to park a boat and/or caravan

This is a haven with everlasting charm that will both steal your heart and sooth your soul. Properties in this highly sought after street are tightly-held and seldom available to the market, so we encourage your early enquiry! Feel free to call Mel or Annette anytime.
