Buying or selling a home is a rollercoaster. When choosing an agent, you want someone experienced, tenacious, and reliable...but you also want someone with emotional intelligence, who can make the process easy. Lauren MacRae masters this delicate balance - proving it takes a mix of ‘head & heart’ to consistently exceed expectations.
Some homes are built to fit in. Others are designed to stand apart.
Perfectly positioned in one of Tauranga’s most sought-after neighbourhoods, this 1970s residence showcases thoughtful architectural design, where timeless character meets modern family living in an unbeatable Pillans Point location. Designed during an era when creativity and individuality shaped residential design, 69 Maxwells Road remains every bit as captivating today as when it was first conceived. Bold forms, unexpected spaces, and connection between indoors and out create a home with genuine personality, making more conventional homes feel predictable by comparison. It is a home that has never chased trends, instead offering enduring design that continues to feel fresh decades later.
While its original design character has been carefully preserved, an extensive renovation has transformed the home for contemporary living. Light filled interiors, cosy hideaways, quality finishes and thoughtful upgrades provide all the comfort and convenience expected today, while respectfully honouring the originality and craftsmanship that make this home truly special. Designed to adapt as your life evolves, multiple indoor and outdoor living spaces provide exceptional flexibility. Whether you're entertaining, working from home, creating children's retreats, enjoying quiet reading nooks or simply gathering with family, the home's versatile layout allows you to tailor every space to suit your lifestyle.
Outside, the appeal continues. Set on a fenced 905sqm (approx.) section, you'll discover an expansive lawn for children to play. Mature trees create a sense of established tranquillity, complete with your own treehouse. Expansive north facing decks capture sunshine from morning through until evening, while elevated views stretch across the harbour to Mauao, providing a spectacular backdrop for everyday living. Multiple off street parking provides for the cars as well as the boat and motorhome.
Location is where this property truly excels. Few addresses offer such effortless convenience. Tauranga's CBD is just a few minutes away, while the golden beaches, cafés and vibrant lifestyle of Mount Maunganui are only a short drive from your door. Pillans Point School is only 100m (approx.) away, as are the harbour beaches, parks, scenic walking and cycling trails, with an easy stroll to neighbourhood shops and supermarket, making it easy to enjoy everything this exceptional community has to offer without venturing far from home.
Homes that successfully combine distinctive design, modern comfort and an enviable lifestyle are increasingly rare. Offering character, flexibility, sunshine, generous grounds and one of Tauranga's most desirable locations, 69 Maxwells Road presents a unique opportunity to secure a home that refuses to be ordinary.
Come home to character. Stay for the lifestyle.
