This sprawling lifestyle block in Tauranga was transformed from bare paddocks into a private rural retreat complete with pool, tennis court, sunken firepit & even a boutique vineyard for the owners to dabble in.

Lush layers of hardy native & exotic planting give this property many moments of delight throughout the seasons.

Nearly 4000 native trees were planted along the steep banks of the gulley, restoring and linking the slopes back into the surrounding forest.

Corten steel edging was added to create crisp gardens surrounding the original homestead, along with casual pea gravel & lawn paths to lead you around the property.

An orchard and enclosed vegetable garden provides endless beans, basil and strawberries for the family to enjoy.
