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.

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

Abbie was fantastic at selling my house during the nov, dec period. She kept in constant contact, was adptable to changing the selling method to keep viewing numbers up, she kept my informed and reassured the whole way through. She is also just a lovley human who has your genuine interests at heart and wants the best for your realestate journey. Teamed with Julie Thompson the sale of my house was seamless and professional.

Ashley Cedar

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

"Julie worked tirelessly to sell our home and section and helped us to overcome some real challenges on the way. Workout a doubt the most honest agent I have ever met and a lovely person to boot. 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

"Abbie and the team at Real Estate Taupo were fantastic. Their knowledge of the market and advice on presenting our property is what got us the very best sale price. Always helpful and available, communication was outstanding. Would highly recommend 👌"

Jenni Allan

"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

"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

"In all of our real estate endeavours, we have never had a more thorough and professional involvement than we have had with Abbie and Julie. They sold our house almost immediately upon listing and talked us through every critical stage of the process. We referred a colleague to them and their home was sold with similar results. We would highly recommend Real Estate Taupo to anyone looking to buy or sell a property in the Taupo region. Signed by two very happy customers."

Darryl and Fiona Hart

"Abbie sold our house without any hassle and was awesome to deal with! Abbie is a total professional with clear concise communications and kept us in the loop at all times. We have brought and sold a few houses over the years and can sincerely say that she has been the best we have dealt with, can highly recommend. :)"
