When it comes to selling your home, one of your biggest assets, you want to know you’re in safe, experienced, and proactive hands. That’s where I come in.
I’ve been with EVES Papamoa for almost 14 years and consistently rank in the top tier of salespeople across the entire network. From first homes to family baches, investment properties to beachfront stunners, I’ve helped more than 450 families move on and move forward.
My journey in real estate began when my twin boys were just three years old. Fast forward to today and they’re seventeen. The market has shifted plenty over the years, but my love for the job hasn’t. I still get a buzz from helping people step into their next chapter, and I’m known for straight talking advice, smart strategy, and genuine client care.
Behind every great agent is a great team. I’m backed by Jayde my powerhouse Production Assistant, who keeps everything running like a well-oiled machine, so your campaign is slick, seamless, and stress free.
I also work closely alongside a number of other salespeople within our EVES network who speak a range of languages, including Punjabi, Hindi, and Mandarin. This means your property benefits from wider buyer reach and culturally attuned communication, helping buyers and sellers connect with confidence and move through the process in a way that feels familiar and respectful to them.
I’ve marketed and negotiated through every kind of market cycle, auctions, priced campaigns, first home buyers, investors, I’ve done the lot. What stays constant is clear, honest communication. You’ll always know where things stand and what the next smart move is, without the guesswork.
If you’re thinking about selling near the beach, local schools, village shops, cafés, or coastal walkways, you want someone who knows Papamoa like the back of their hand and knows how to create momentum in today’s market.
Let’s have a proper chat about your plans and what your property could really achieve.
Your next move starts here - give me a call and let’s make it happen.
An Outlook You’ll Never Outgrow
Some homes give you a backyard. This one gives you a backdrop. Perfectly positioned overlooking the Golden Sands green space/swale and tucked back from the road on a private driveway, this home enjoys a wonderfully wide aspect that creates an incredible feeling of openness. Instead of looking into neighbouring homes, you'll enjoy uninterrupted green space, all beautifully framed by spectacular sunsets across the Papamoa Hills. It's a view you'll appreciate every single day. Step inside and you'll immediately be drawn to the soaring raked ceiling. It creates a striking sense of volume through the open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, while an abundance of natural light floods the home from morning until evening. Quality drapes and blinds throughout add warmth, comfort and a touch of sophistication, creating a space that's both stylish and inviting. The floor plan has been thoughtfully designed with everyday living in mind. The master suite is privately positioned away from the remaining two bedrooms, creating a peaceful retreat for you while family members or guests enjoy their own separate wing of the home. It's the perfect balance of togetherness and privacy. Then there's the practicality. Forget the undersized double garages we've come to expect in many modern homes. This oversized double garage gives you room to actually breathe, whether it's for larger vehicles, extra storage or the weekend toys. Outside, automatic security gates provide an added sense of privacy and peace of mind, while the generous off-street parking has previously accommodated the owners 7.5 metre motorhome. Outside, you'll also enjoy the freedom of an incredibly easy-care section with no lawns to mow. It's lock up and leave living without sacrificing a feeling of space, thanks to the expansive reserve outlook that makes this home feel far more open than its surroundings. Let the kids or grandkids use the greenspace/swale on your boundary line without all of the upkeep that entails. And when it comes to location, it doesn't get much easier. Step through the gate and take the shortcut to Golden Sands School, the beach, local walkways, New World and The Sands Town Centre. Whether it's your morning coffee, an evening walk along the coastline or picking up dinner on the way home, everything is within an easy stroll. If you've been searching for a home that offers more outlook, more privacy, more practicality and less maintenance, then 29 Harding Drive deserves your attention. Come and experience the outlook, the sunsets and the lifestyle for yourself. Homes that offer this combination of space, convenience and everyday liveability are few and far between.

Character. Land. Location. Potential.
Forget everything you think you know about Papamoa homes... because 55 Dickson Road is anything but ordinary and has been tightly held by the owner for over 40 years! Set on a whopping 829sqm (approx.) freehold section, this is the kind of opportunity that's becoming incredibly hard to find this close to the beach. Whether you're dreaming of room for the kids to roam, eyeing future development potential (subject to council consent), or simply chasing a property with genuine personality, this one delivers on all fronts. But here's where it gets really exciting... Step inside and you're greeted by a home that proudly wears its 1970s heritage. The beautiful brick archway, warm timber cabinetry and craftsmanship of a bygone era create a level of character that's almost impossible to replicate today. It's been exceptionally well cared for, meaning you can move straight in and enjoy it exactly as it is, or let your imagination run wild with a modern renovation that could truly transform the space. Configured with four bedrooms, a spacious family bathroom, generous living area plus an additional sun-soaked sitting room that could easily become a second lounge, home office or kids retreat, there is flexibility here for growing families and changing lifestyles. Outside, the magic continues. Established mature trees create a private backyard oasis, offering space to entertain, let the kids loose, or simply enjoy the peace and quiet. There's also a detached single garage and plenty of room to make the most of this substantial parcel of land. And then there's the location. You're just minutes from Papamoa Plaza, Fashion Island, the Surf Club and the beach itself. Morning coffees, weekend markets, surf checks and everyday conveniences are all right at your fingertips. Properties offering all four are becoming increasingly rare, and this is one you'll want to experience in person. Whether you're a family wanting space to grow, a renovator or developer searching for your next project, or someone looking to unlock the future potential of an exceptional site, 55 Dickson Road deserves your attention. Come and see it for yourself... because opportunities like this don't wait around.

Location Makes Life Easy
If you're searching for a home that delivers an easy lifestyle with everything close at hand, 4 Gloucester Road deserves your attention. Sitting on the fringe of Bayfair, literally just a couple of hundred metres across the road, convenience is a major draw card here. Baywave is directly opposite, shopping, dining and everyday essentials are within easy walking distance, and the beach is close enough to enjoy whenever the mood strikes. Inside, the home offers three bedrooms, a main bathroom and with a unique feature in the master bedroom, which enjoys its own ensuite shower. It's not something you often find in homes of this size and provides an extra level of convenience for busy households. The north-facing aspect ensures the living areas are warm, bright and welcoming throughout the day, with high raked ceilings offering a sense of character and space, while the easy care gardens make this a property that's simple to maintain and enjoy. While there is no garaging, there is secure off-street parking for up to four vehicles, providing plenty of room for family, guests or extra toys. Currently returning $685 per week, the existing tenants would love to stay, making it an attractive option for investors. However, the property will be sold with vacant possession, allowing owner-occupiers to move straight in and make it their own. Whether you're a first-home buyer looking to secure a foothold in Mount Maunganui, an investor seeking a proven performer, or someone looking for a property with future value-add potential, this is an opportunity worth exploring. The vendors have business commitments they need to meet and their instructions are clear, this property must be sold.
