BEHIND THE SCENES
28 Hanlow Place, Pyes Pa
At the Tauranga City end of highly desirable Joyce Rd, this little-known secret (historically addressed as 35 Joyce Road) is hidden behind a modern residential subdivision yet retains the size, privacy, sunny aspect and unobstructed rural outlook of a more remote location. A large, attractive home with flexible spaces, multiple living areas over two levels, and three-car garaging. This property provides the ultimate residential-lifestyle convenience for a family, particularly those connected to ACG or Aquinas schools.

FEATURING
This is a large, quality-built, and more recently renovated home with substantial elevated rural views on its long boundary. Off prestigious Joyce Road, its location provides immediate access to Grace Hospital, The Crossing, Pyes Pa Shopping Centre, Aquinas and ACG schools.
An entry foyer separates two floorplan wings and leads to a large central open-plan area. This area includes the kitchen, living, and dining areas, which feature a generous window seat, a designer wood firebox with a heat transfer system, a ducted heat pump, a substantial plumbed scullery, an outstanding connection to the yard and pool area, and elevated views. Louvre systems benefit two zones of covered outdoor space.
A massive lounge area connects via a large slider to the main living area and the pool. A gas fire provides ambience, and the room's size and shape allow for specific use areas.
Three large bedrooms, a shared bathroom, and a powder room are found off the entry foyer, past an idyllic office.
In the other direction, an easy staircase leads to a dedicated cinema, additional bedroom, bathroom and spacious games room. The bedroom and games room can be isolated from the remainder of the level, providing family and friends with more independent accommodation or a teenage zone. The possibilities here are endless.
On the ground level, a sizable master suite with an equivalent ensuite and walk-in wardrobe enjoys a private outlook, views of the rural landscape to the east, and a sheltered connection to the outdoors.
The uncommonly large Cascade inground pool is also particularly deep, at approximately 2.2m. It is privately positioned for all-day sunshine and well supported by a large, attractive pool shed and surrounding planting.
A three-car internal access garage with natural light and custom built-in storage, with direct connection to a separate laundry and large storage room both upstairs and down, provides enviable practicality.
Mature landscaping has been beautifully applied and curated to create privacy and an environment where it benefits. It is otherwise attractive and informal with a view to low maintenance. A well-connected, sizable, flat grassy section is a rare find and is fully tended by two robot mowers. Hardscaping provides guest parking and small boat or campervan storage, ready for your free weekends with the family.
