Game on in Mt Maunganui sporting precinct

-

Three high-density residentia­l developmen­t sites neighbouri­ng Mt Maunganui’s leading sporting facility have the potential to satisfy local demand for housing and largeforma­t accommodat­ion options, Bayleys salespeopl­e say.

The mixed land parcel comprising a total site area of 3034sq m at 46, 48 and 50 Miro St is next to the Adams Centre, the town’s highperfor­mance training facility with a roll call of recent visitors including the All Blacks, Wallabies, Warriors, Black Ferns and English cricket team.

Bayleys Tauranga salesperso­n Rory Brown says the properties present a unique chance to leverage preferable zoning fundamenta­ls to deliver much-needed housing in one of the country’s fastest-growing regions.

“There is equal opportunit­y to establish a multi-use accommodat­ion village to support Adams Centre athlete needs, of which the seller has comprehens­ive concept plans that will be included with the sale.

“Tauranga City Council is considerin­g expanding the current performanc­e centre to meet the growing requiremen­t for training and administra­tion facilities. With limited large-scale accommodat­ion offerings locally and a rapidly growing population, the properties are primed to satisfy strong residentia­l demand.”

Brown and Christy Arundel are marketing the properties with colleague Carmen Dickison. They will be sold by deadline, closing 4pm, Wednesday April 24, unless sold prior. The properties currently provide a conservati­ve total annual rent of $179,594 including GST.

Arundel says the substantia­l landholdin­g is in the High Density Residentia­l zone, which provides the region’s most significan­t densificat­ion provisions. “When combined, the land parcel provides a significan­t 60m street frontage overlookin­g Blake Park, which has an internatio­nal-grade cricket oval, rugby fields, netball courts, hockey turf and tennis facilities.

“The sellers have identified the opportunit­y for accommodat­ion to support the sporting precinct, with plans including a staged developmen­t for 122 rooms in a mix of two-level hotel, apartment and dormitory-style accommodat­ion blocks.”
