Greeted with an enchanting, panoramic outlook out across Tairua River, cooking and entertaining from this space is sure to be a joy. Tri-fold ranch sliders also mean that seamless flow between this gorgeous indoor space and the outdoor entertaining area is easily achieved.
Step outside onto the generous wrap-around decking here and the views that welcome you are simply breathtaking.
