🌿Some places are worth the extra effort

Tararua Drive has been a real labour of love, and you can see the thought that's gone into creating something a little different. Behind the gates, you'll find seven lifestyle sections with space to breathe, room to build and a sense of privacy that's hard to find. With native plantings, sheltered spots and a few special corners waiting to be discovered, this is about creating a lifestyle that's truly your own. 🏡🌲🪨

Seven sections. A world of possibilities.

📞 Call Chris on 027 366 0611 to arrange a private viewing and come see what makes this place different.

5 Hector Place in Sunnybrook has officially sold.

What makes this one a little more special is that these vendors actually bought this property through me about three years ago so to have them come back and trust me again to sell it for them… that means a lot.

A big congratulations to my vendors for trusting me, not once, but twice and to the new owners, I hope you enjoy this home.

If selling your home has been on your mind, or you’ve just been wondering what it might be worth, give me a call or flick me a message.
Even if you’re not ready to sell just yet, I’m always happy to have a chat and give you an idea of what your options are. 🏡

🏡 SOLD | 7 Castor Place, Sunnybrook

Our lovely vendor is away, and the purchasers were busy with kids' sport, so neither could make it for the SOLD photo… which means you'll just have to settle for your favourite local Scottish agent! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿😁

This one was a special sale for me. The vendor was one of the very first football mums I met when we moved to Rotorua nearly 20 years ago, so to be trusted to sell her home is pretty special.💕

A big congratulations to our purchasers too. We hope raising your family in this home brings you many happy memories, plenty of laughs and lots of joy.
