Updated kitchen, more photos coming soon

Nestled in one of Raglan's most sought-after, family-friendly neighbourhoods, this beautifully maintained 134sqm residence (built in 1999) rests on a generous 807sqm freehold section, offering the perfect setting to create lasting family memories.

From the moment you arrive, a striking marine-grade Australian gum slatted fence and secure electric gates signal the quality and care found throughout the property. This inviting entrance sets the tone for a private, peaceful retreat.

Inside, the home features a thoughtfully designed open-plan layout, where the well-appointed kitchen seamlessly connects to the dining and lounge areas, forming the heart of the home. Whether it's weekend breakfasts, after-school activities, or relaxed evenings, this space has been crafted to support everyday family life with style and ease. Warm and durable Australian Blackbutt timber laminate flooring enhances both functionality and aesthetic, ideal for growing families and entertainers alike.

Accommodation comprises four generous bedrooms, three spacious doubles and one single, offering versatility for families of all sizes. The three double bedrooms are luxuriously carpeted in 100% New Zealand wool Bremworth carpet, providing comfort and quality underfoot. The home is further enhanced with bespoke, 100% European linen window treatments throughout, adding a touch of refined elegance to every room.

The lower level introduces a second living area and an additional bedroom, all opening through triple, double-glazed ranch sliders to the outdoors. This versatile space presents exciting potential, whether for a self-contained flat, teen retreat, or multi-generational living.

Comfort is assured year-round with a ducted heating and cooling system, while future plans are already in motion, resource consent has been granted for two additional bathrooms (including a master ensuite) and an expanded deck that will double its current size.

Step outside to enjoy a generous wraparound timber deck, perfect for alfresco dining and long summer evenings. It also provides shaded seating downstairs on the lower veranda. The beautifully landscaped tropical gardens, complete with raised vegetable beds, offer a lush and productive backdrop. Across the road, a public playground adds another layer of family-friendly appeal.

Clad in timeless cedar and topped with a durable iron roof, the home combines natural charm with enduring quality. Located just 700 metres from Raglan Area School and moments from the vibrant town centre, with its cafes, galleries, and boutiques, this property delivers the best of coastal living with everyday convenience. School bus stops are also nearby, streamlining the morning routine.

Gently elevated, the site enjoys a sense of privacy and openness, all within easy reach of Raglan's iconic coastline. Whether you're seeking a forever family home, a weekend escape, or a flexible property with scope to expand (including potential for a second dwelling), 8 Taipari Avenue is an exceptional and rare opportunity.
