Expansive fairways, established trees and a wonderful sense of space, 34 Sophia Street offers uninterrupted views across Arikikapakapa Golf Course and the feeling of living in a green retreat, with the convenience of town close at hand.

This beautifully renovated home enjoys an outlook that transforms everyday living. Morning coffee, relaxed lunches and evenings outdoors unfold against a sweep of green, giving the property a sense of openness seldom found in an urban setting.

An extensive renovation has brought fresh life to the home’s mid-century character, combining timeless appeal with contemporary comfort. Thoughtfully designed interiors offer inviting spaces to gather, entertain or find a quiet corner, with indoor and outdoor living making the most of the setting.

Four bedrooms, including two master suites with ensuites, are complemented by a third bathroom and a separate guest toilet. The generous layout suits family life and visiting friends, with a separate TV room providing another space to unwind. A modern kitchen with a breakfast bar, wine fridge and contemporary appliances makes entertaining easy, while a fireplace, central heating and air conditioning provide comfort throughout the seasons.

Outside, landscaped grounds frame the golf course views, with dedicated areas for dining, entertaining and lounging. The spa pool offers a relaxing place to watch the day draw to a close. Two separate single-car garages provide storage for vehicles, bikes and golfing equipment, alongside four off-street car parks.

Currently operating as boutique holiday accommodation, Above Par also offers an appealing prospect as a permanent home or Rotorua retreat. Cafés, shops, Te Puia and the Whakarewarewa Forest are all within easy reach, and furniture is negotiable for those seeking an easy transition.
