More than Meets the Eye

On a tranquil cul-de-sac in the sought-after Mapara neighbourhood just 10-minutes’ drive from town, sits this modernised and inviting home offering plenty – three double bedrooms, two bathrooms, a nursery/study, a separate rumpus room currently serving as a fourth bedroom, a spacious lounge, dining area, kitchen and even a new walk-in pantry, plus a sunny north-facing deck on some 4,005sqm (more or less) of land.

Highlights of this low-maintenance home include double glazing, new carpet, fresh interior paint, ceilings, and scotia. Functionality abounds with a wood burner, heat pump, and DVS system, and a separate laundry ripe for conversion into a bathroom for the rumpus room. Practicality continues outside – a paved carport at the backdoor, a double garage (with single-car door), and a large, gravelled area provides ample parking for cars, caravans and boats. If wanted, there’s also space for shed construction.

The property benefits from level lawn and easy-care gardens around the house, before expanding into approximately 3,000 sqm of undulating green space for kids, pets, or hens to enjoy.

Summer is approaching – time to enjoy this peaceful and private oasis near town, Whakaipo Bay and Acacia Bay’s boat ramp. See you at the Open Home.

"We cannot recommend Abbie and Julie highly enough.  From the moment we listed our home, we felt completely supported and confident in their expertise. We elected to market our property by the 4-week Deadline Date method. This process made sense to us. As it transpired, the excellent marketing found our buyers in the first week and by the 10 the day of “going live” we had several multi offers presented to us. All offers were very competitive but one stood out above the others and by the end of that day we were SOLD, feeling confident that the best outcome had been achieved. We really loved the fact that Abbie and Julie are one unique team handling all the buyers. It felt so much less complicated than other arrangements. While both Abbie and Julie were fantastic to work with, we want to particularly acknowledge Abbie as she was the “lead salesperson” on our property.  She is in a league of her own.  Her communication is flawless and she has an incredible ability to make you feel at ease throughout the entire process. We trusted her 100% from start to finish, knowing that she would handle our buyers with the utmost care and skill. Abbie is more than a cut above anyone else we have dealt with in the Real Estate industry — she (and/or Julie) in our opinion are the best and only choice in Taupo when it comes to marketing your property. If you want someone who is professional, highly skilled, trustworthy, and genuinely cares about achieving the best outcome, Abbie (and her amazing team) are unparalleled. Thank you, Abbie and Julie, for making the sale of our home such a smooth, positive, and even enjoyable experience."

Mark and Mel Barnett

"Fantastic agent very professional, great market knowledge excellent communacation leading to a stress free sale .. I have brought and sold half a dozen properties and Abbie and Julie have been the best agents I've ever dealt with , I would highly recommend them to any one selling or buying."

Lindsay Griffin

Wonderful stress free experience selling our home with Abbie. We can't recommend Abbie highly enough. She was very friendly yet professional throughout and her calm demeanour helped us through the whole process. Hardworking and knowlegable of the market. Both Abbie and Julie worked well together, they communicated regularly with us, which was very reassuring. And best of all, our home sold in record time, we were thrilled. Already recommending Abbie to our friends.

Lynn and Bob

"Abbie and Julie were incredible to work with. From initial comprehensive market analysis in appraisal, to providing an excellent "do to list" before putting on the market (and the "if time- less for purchaser to do" list). Nothing was missed. They were available to answer all our questions throughout the whole process. Open home and private showing feedback was provided each time with useful information and temperature gauge of how property may be placed to sell, or what may be needed to get the right price. Expectations were kept realistic and when the deadline came, multi offers were presented which resulted than a higher than our initially expected price. This was our first time working with an agent who works with both seller and buyer, so we were dubious however Abbie went well and beyond ensuring both parties were well informed and happy with everything. No surprises or hidden things popped up. I would not hesitate to recommend Abbie and Julie as their professionalism and wonderful personalities made a potential stressful situation a very enjoyable process. If I could rate 10 out of 5 stars I would!"

Angus Morrison and Anne Corey

"From the first contact I was blown away with Abbie and how caring, supportive and informative she was. I had quite a few questions which were answered quickly and quietly. The communication was superb with the exact right balance so I was not overwhelmed. The paperwork was explained thoroughly and simply. Open homes were a breeze. I did my due diligence then disappeared leaving the rest to the expert. The sale and completion of was amazing. I was thrilled. The professionalism, efficiency, communication and thorough knowledge of her business was amazing. This was the best real estate experience I have had (and I have had a few). Thank you Abbie you are the best."

Julie Osborne

We have had another fantastic experience with Abbie and Julie from Real Estate Taupo. This is the second time we’ve sold a house with them and once again they were an absolute pleasure to deal with. They are professional, approachable, and kept us well informed throughout the process. Nothing felt like too much trouble and their friendly, positive attitude made everything feel easy and straightforward. We’re so grateful for their hard work and wouldn’t hesitate to work with them again. We highly recommend Abbie and Julie to anyone looking to buy or sell in Taupō.

Marty Gabolisuy and Dani Ellis

"Real Estate Taupo recently sold our home for us. Abbie and Julie truly went above and beyond in getting our house sold in record time - they really are the complete package. They even spoke to our neighbours to let them know what was happening, and were able to organise people at short notice to help tidy up the section. We were always kept up to date as things developed, and we always felt we could trust and rely on them to be straight up and realistic. I could not recommend them more highly, it was by far the most stress free home sale process."

Mark and Ann Maree Fernandes

"The best agents I've ever had - and I've had them all!"

On a tranquil cul-de-sac in the sought-after Mapara neighbourhood just 10-minutes’ drive from town, sits this modernised and inviting home offering plenty – three double bedrooms, two bathrooms, a nursery/study, a separate rumpus room currently serving as a fourth bedroom, a spacious lounge, dining area, kitchen and even a new walk-in pantry, plus a sunny north-facing deck on some 4,005sqm (more or less) of land.

Highlights of this low-maintenance home include double glazing, new carpet, fresh interior paint, ceilings, and scotia. Functionality abounds with a wood burner, heat pump, and DVS system, and a separate laundry ripe for conversion into a bathroom for the rumpus room. Practicality continues outside – a paved carport at the backdoor, a double garage (with single-car door), and a large, gravelled area provides ample parking for cars, caravans and boats. If wanted, there’s also space for shed construction.

The property benefits from level lawn and easy-care gardens around the house, before expanding into approximately 3,000 sqm of undulating green space for kids, pets, or hens to enjoy.
