Description
Imagine being able to walk to the supermarket, grab a coffee and head down for a stroll along the beach. A rare feature here is the inclusion of a lift, adding ease between levels and helping set this modern Mount Maunganui home apart. Built in 2006 with cavity construction, the home offers modern easy care living. The kitchen and dining area form the hub of the home for everyday meals and conversation, while the separate living room opens to a sunny deck. A private outdoor area off the dining adds another place to sit or entertain and the upstairs balcony gives the home even more flexibility. A bedroom and bathroom on the ground floor add real flexibility for guests, extended family or anyone wanting the option to live comfortably on one level. Upstairs, three further bedrooms enjoy views toward Mauao, with the master positioned to take in the best of the outlook. Consented as three bedrooms and two living areas, the home is currently configured as four bedrooms, giving you options depending on how you want to live. With the beach
nearby and everyday
amenities close at hand, this is a home that makes Mount living feel easy. Get in touch to arrange your viewing.

Next steps for moving to New Zealand
Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.
Understand the buying rules
Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.
Sort out your visa
Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.
Plan your finances
Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.
Know your tax obligations
US citizens are taxed on worldwide income. You'll need to file US taxes from abroad and may owe local taxes too.
Set up healthcare
Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.
Run the full checklist
Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
