A View Like No Other!

Nestled high above the Papamoa coastline on a private 3,916sqm section, a home has quietly been turning heads—not with loud statements, but with elegance, presence, and views that stretch from the rolling hills of the Bay of Plenty to the sparkling blue of the Pacific Ocean.

Welcome to 197 Reid Road, where elevated coastal living meets refined design in a residence that’s as captivating as its surroundings. Positioned just minutes from the heart of Papamoa, this 328sqm property offers an uncompromising lifestyle that blends serenity, space, and style in one exceptional offering.

The views are, without question, the crown jewel here. From sunrise over Motiti Island to the evening glow settling across the water, the outlook from this property is ever-changing, always spectacular. Whether you’re enjoying your morning coffee on the patio or simply unwinding in the living room, the landscape becomes an extension of your living space—calming, grounding, and undeniably special.

Designed and built in 2006, the home itself is a statement in thoughtful architecture. Soaring raked ceilings, exposed beams, and timber accents create warmth and depth, while modern touches—such as an HRV system, multiple heat pumps, and double-glazed windows—ensure day-to-day comfort. The layout is fluid and functional, with generous living spaces that open effortlessly onto an expansive outdoor patio, ideal for entertaining with a view.

At its heart is a gourmet kitchen featuring granite benchtops, premium appliances, and a walk-in scullery. This space has been designed not just for culinary creativity, but for connection—whether you’re preparing a quiet dinner or hosting a lively gathering, it’s a place where memories are made.

The master suite occupies its own wing, offering privacy and calm with direct access to the outdoors, a walk-in wardrobe, and a luxurious ensuite complete with a spa bath. Two additional guest bedrooms, located in a separate wing, are serviced by a semi-ensuite and a guest powder room, making this home as practical as it is beautiful.

Functionality hasn’t been forgotten either. A large internal-access garage, full laundry, generous storage, and eco-conscious systems like a biolytic septic setup and 25,000-litre water tank support sustainable, self-reliant living.

And yet, despite the sense of seclusion, everything you need is close at hand. Papamoa’s vibrant café scene, shopping centres, schools, and sandy beaches are just a six-minute drive away, while Bayfair and Tauranga’s wider amenities lie just beyond.

In a market where lifestyle properties this close to the coast are increasingly rare, 197 Reid Road stands out not only for its design and craftsmanship but for its undeniable sense of place. Here is a home that invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and take in the view—because life at the top looks a little different.

This property is marketed by Arun Mehan & Snow Williams of Bayleys Real Estate and is now available for viewing by appointment.
