Originally it had two bedrooms but the current owners have opted to use it as a one-bedroom layout with walk-through wardrobe and extra storage space. Here you will enjoy the buzz of inner-city living, taking advantage of central Tauranga's shops and eateries, while you can easily lock up and leave if you're commuting to the big smoke or taking off overseas. This is a quality complex with exterior maintenance rates and water covered by a quarterly fee. Inquiries over $640,000.
