About the Property

There is something wonderfully special about a classic Kiwi bach, where life slows down, the lake becomes your playground and the simplest moments create lasting memories. Positioned directly on the shores of Lake Rotorua, 28 Ranginui Street captures that quintessential lakeside lifestyle, with an exceptional lawn-to-lake setting and uninterrupted views across the water towards Mokoia Island.

There is something wonderfully special about a classic Kiwi bach, where life slows down, the lake becomes your playground and the simplest moments create lasting memories. Positioned directly on the shores of Lake Rotorua, 28 Ranginui Street captures that quintessential lakeside lifestyle, with an exceptional lawn-to-lake setting and uninterrupted views across the water towards Mokoia Island.

Thoughtfully renovated while retaining its nostalgic retro charm, this inviting waterfront bach offers a relaxed, easy-care escape where the focus is firmly on enjoying the surroundings.

Inside, the open-plan living and dining area unfolds across two levels, creating a welcoming space full of character. A ranch slider opens directly onto the expansive deck, effortlessly extending the living outdoors. Partially covered and generously proportioned, the deck is undoubtedly one of the home’s highlights, offering the perfect setting for long summer lunches, evening drinks with friends or simply watching the ever-changing moods of the lake.

The neatly presented kitchen is compact and practical, equipped with an electric hob and under-bench oven. Refreshed interiors, vinyl plank flooring, window blinds and a heat pump provide everyday comfort while preserving the relaxed simplicity that makes a traditional bach so appealing.

The generously sized main bedroom is a particular highlight, with its own ranch slider opening onto the deck and beautiful lake views towards Mokoia Island. Imagine waking to the water just beyond your doorstep. A separate bunk room, currently accommodating bunks and a single bed, offers additional sleeping space for family and friends, while a compact bathroom with shower and toilet completes the accommodation.

Outside is where this property truly comes into its own. The expansive deck gives way to a generous lawn stretching directly to the water’s edge, creating a seamless connection between the bach and the lake. Whether it’s a morning coffee overlooking the water, an afternoon spent enjoying the outdoors or gathering with loved ones as the sun goes down, this is a setting made for creating memories. A single garage provides useful additional storage for all the essentials of lakeside living.

Authentic in character, refreshed for comfort and exceptional in its waterfront position, 28 Ranginui Street is a rare opportunity to secure a true Kiwi bach in a remarkable lakeside setting.

A place to escape, unwind and enjoy the simple pleasures of life on the lake.
