Central to many tourist attractions, 10 Wai Matangi Place is located 3 minutes off State Highway 1, in the lovely settlement of Motuoapa. A perfect stop over point if you are travelling from Auckland to Wellington, or an even better spot for that regular holiday near the stunning Lake Taupo. Spacious, private and modern accommodation – suitable for 1-6 guests, safe for your children and even perfect for your dogs. You have the option to book the entire 3 bedroom house or just the self-contained, 1 bedroom studio unit. The main house has a large, modern & well equipped kitchen, with open plan living, offering plenty of space for those group bookings. The studio unit (being part of the main house), has a well equipped kitchenette & 1 bedroom with ensuite and walk-in wardrobe. Suitable for 1-2 people. Adjoining outdoor decks to all rooms and entertaining BBQ area for those summer evenings. Attached 2 car garaging and ample outside parking for that boat or trailer. Laundry facilities are situated inside the garaging. The section has a large fully fenced, grass back yard - perfect for your dogs. (Max 3 dogs per booking). No Cats or other pets are permitted.
I bought this lovely home in mid December 2022 and I'm pleased to be able to share it with you all. I have lovingly created the accommodation for all guests to enjoy. I am conscious about looking after our planet, helping reduce waste and of course looking after our health, so you will find throughout the house eco-friendly, sustainable products for you to use. I am available at anytime via the app or my phone number. I now live in Motuoapa so can be available to visit if you require help with anything during your stay.
Wai Matangi Place is a quiet cul-de-sac with a combination of permanent residents and holiday homes. Surrounded by reserves and playgrounds, paved walking & biking tracks, including a nearby forestry track. Motuoapa is becoming a popular settlement, due to its close proximity to Lake Taupo, and central to many tourist attractions. It is also a friendly and safe place to stay. Walking distance to the popular Lake Taupo and the beautiful Motuoapa marina in Motuoapa Bay, which offers a new boat ramp to launch the boat or jet ski for all water activities. Also backing on to the Tongariro River and many popular trout fishing spots. Local trout fishing guides are available. Only 10 minutes north of Turangi for all your amenities, handy to several popular cafes and restaurants, 35 minutes to Taupo and 45 minutes to National Park where you will find many activities such as the Tongariro Crossing, Whakapapa and Turoa Ski Fields and The Sky Waka.
