5 Lance Way, Papamoa, Tauranga, Bay of Plenty

If you're not quite ready for a retirement home but want the comfort of a secure, low-maintenance lifestyle, this could be the perfect next step. Privately positioned within the popular Dunes Village, this well-presented home offers that in-between stage so many buyers are searching for - independence, peace of mind, and a real sense of community, without sacrificing your own space. The single-level design means no stairs, no fuss, and easy day-to-day living, with everything from the garage to the laundry and living areas all thoughtfully laid out on one level. The home itself feels light, relaxed and easy to live in. Open plan living flows out to a sunny, covered courtyard surrounded by established gardens, a quiet, sheltered spot to enjoy your morning coffee or unwind in the evening. The kitchen is modern and practical, quality appliances, and the added bonus of filtered hot and cold water. Two comfortable double bedrooms provide peaceful retreats, with added touches like tinted windows for privacy and a ceiling fan for comfort through the warmer months. A well-designed bathroom with great storage and a heat pump in the living area ensures you're comfortable year-round. What really sets this property apart is the solar panel system - a smart, future-focused feature that helps keep power costs down and can even generate credits. These panels are paid for and come as a chattel. It's a real advantage that you don't often find in homes within the village. Outside, there's just enough garden to enjoy without it becoming a chore, complete with raised vegetable planters and a charming potting shed. It's the kind of space where you can stay active, enjoy a bit of gardening, or simply relax and enjoy your surroundings. This is a lifestyle that offers security, simplicity and independence, ideal for those wanting to downsize, free up time, and enjoy life, while still feeling completely at home. Key
