Description
Tucked away from the road, 64B Maunganui Road welcomes you with a large sun-drenched forecourt and an immediate sense of calm. Step inside to a generous foyer – an impressive entry that sets the tone for what’s to come. On this level, an extremely rare find in the Mount: four car garaging with excellent storage and internal access, plus a covered spa area and additional off-street parking – plenty of space for the weekend guest car, boards, bikes, and the classic after-beach drop-zone. Upstairs, everyday living flows effortlessly. Crisp white interiors and warm wood tones create a sophisticated coastal feel across the open-plan kitchen, dining, and lounge, with a second living space stepping off this hub. The monochrome kitchen anchors the room with sleek black benchtops and cabinetry, a breakfast island, and quality appliance integration. Both living areas open to a large, elevated deck, sunny and sized for long lunches, sunset drinks and summer gatherings, with glimpses of Mauao and Mount Drury as your backdrop. Accommodation is generous and beautifully light: three large double bedrooms, including a serene master suite with a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite. The family bathroom serves the additional bedrooms, complete with a freestanding bath and separate shower. Throughout, the home feels fresh, refined, and meticulously maintained; the overall feel, clean and considered. Low-maintenance by design and clad on a cavity with double glazing, there are no lawns to mow – just lock up and wander out. Across the road, Mount Drury Reserve and playground offer fun for kids and grandkids alike. Stroll 300 metres to the beach, or 450 metres to Pilot Bay. Wander down to Alpino for a long lunch, Rita’s for the best pizza in town, or Latitude 37 for live music and atmosphere. Captain Bones has your morning coffee sorted, and Soul Bowl serves a Nutella açai bowl worth writing home about. With Mauao’s base track moments away, boutique shopping around the corner, and the ocean in reach, this is the definition of effortless living. It’s everything you love
about the Mount, on foot. Perfect as a sophisticated holiday base, a stylish downsizer, or a beach-loving professional’s retreat, 64B Maunganui Road delivers the complete coastal lifestyle – freehold, fresh, and wonderfully easy to live in.

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.
