River Retreat

This charming 3 bedroom, 1 bathroom property with a double garage is but a moment away from the renowned Waitahanui River, where anglers can revel in world-class trout fishing from a variety of abundant pools, and everyone can enjoy walking or running along the scenic trails extending for kilometres through native bush alongside the river. What’s more, the pristine waters of Lake Taupo are equally nearby, ideal for swimming and boating.

In a relaxed style akin to its setting, this appealing home is characterised by an open-plan lay-out, high ceilings with exposed beams, poured concrete kitchen bench-tops and mosaic splash-backs, a sunny deck, veggie patches, and a front yard planted with mature natives and fruit trees. What’s more, the 870m2 (more or less) of freehold land holds the potential to subdivide (subject to consent), whether now, or in the future.

While you’ll love the slower pace of this idyllic location, convenience is also only a 5 minute drive away thanks to the new Countdown supermarket and Landing entertainment centre in Taupo South.

It was an absolute pleasure to deal with Julie and Abbie!"

Would recommend her highly to anyone who needs a competent and highly professional person to sell their home. In fact we already have recommended her to several people."

Garry and Eula Robinson

Jenni Allan

"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

"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

Abbie and Julie made my house selling process so easy. Their honest advice and friendly persona gave comfort during such a big decision-making process. As a first-time seller, they were always happy to answer questions, no matter how big or small; and were always prompt in response. After having already relocated for work, Abbie and Julie looked after my home and belongings, giving reassurance that all was well. They even did a little bit of gardening! They are very professional, yet it felt like you were working alongside friends. For anyone looking to sell, or even buy – go with Abbie and Julie. They are fantastic and produce a great result. Thank you.

Jonathon Tocker

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

Karen Gallen

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.
