44 Roberts Street, Taupo

Positioned in one of Rangatira Park's most sought after settings, 9 Bracken Row commands attention with its elevated presence, expansive proportions and breath taking outlook.

Set on a substantial freehold title of approximately 1,358sqm, this impressive 244sqm (more or less) home enjoys a prized corner position near Huka Falls Road and Kahurangi Drive, yet is quietly accessed via Bracken Row - a small, exclusive lane shared by just nine quality homes.

Constructed in the 1980's (approximately) and thoughtfully arranged over two levels, the home is perfectly oriented to capture sweeping views across Taupō township, out over Lake Taupō and onward to the majestic peaks of the Tongariro National Park. The Waikato River is only a short stroll away, ideal for a summer swim or a scenic walk into the Taupō CBD, which is also just minutes away by car.

The exterior has been well maintained, featuring a brick lower level and weatherboard upper level. A generous paved forecourt provides excellent off street parking, complemented by a large double garage with internal access and a high stud car or boat port - ideal for those with recreational toys.

Upstairs, the heart of the home is a spacious open plan living and dining area where the views truly shine. High pitched ceilings with exposed rafters create a sense of volume and character, while stacking doors open to an expansive deck, partially covered for sheltered outdoor entertaining. From here, steps lead down to the fully fenced backyard. Three generous double bedrooms occupy this level, including a master with ensuite and direct access to a deck that runs the length of the home on the view side. A main bathroom and laundry facilities are also conveniently located upstairs, and the home is mostly double glazed for year round comfort. A light filled glazed stairwell connects to the lower level, which offers outstanding versatility.

With both internal and external access, this level includes a living room, bedroom and a small dining area with kitchenette. The dining space could easily function as a second bedroom, making it an ideal guest suite, extended family accommodation or a private retreat. While the interior is comfortable and very liveable as is, much of it remains original, presenting an exciting opportunity for future owners to renovate, modernise and add significant value over time.

Homes of this scale, position and potential are rarely available. 9 Bracken Row is a property that combines location, lifestyle and long-term opportunity in one exceptional package.
