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.

Big Land, Coastal Living, Endless Possibilities
Opportunities like this are becoming incredibly hard to find in Papamoa Beach. Set on a substantial 809sqm (approx.) freehold site just moments from the sand, this property offers the kind of landholding that many buyers dream about but rarely secure. Whether you're looking for room for the kids to run, space to park the toys, or a property with genuine future upside, 284 Dickson Road delivers on all fronts. Positioned towards the front of the section, the existing home leaves an abundance of backyard space to enjoy now while offering exciting possibilities for the future. Subject to council consent, buyers may wish to explore subdivision or additional dwelling options, making this a property that can evolve alongside your lifestyle and long-term plans. The home itself is warm, welcoming and full of character. The upgraded modern kitchen with large island bench and exposed ceiling rafters creates an inviting hub for family life, while the wood fire adds ambience and comfort through the winter months. Established landscaping wraps around the home, creating a private oasis where entertaining, relaxing and unwinding come naturally. The flexible floor plan includes a fourth room accessed through the third bedroom. It's an ideal opportunity to create a luxurious walk-in wardrobe, home office, nursery or to investigate an ensuite addition in the future. What truly sets this property apart is the lifestyle. Imagine morning walks along the beach, kids biking to school, and weekends spent enjoying one of Papamoa's most established and tightly held neighbourhoods. The beach is just moments away, Papamoa Primary is an easy stroll up the road, and Papamoa College, local walkways, parks and key transport links are all within easy reach. In a market where sections continue to get smaller and development opportunities become harder to secure, this is your chance to buy a slice of old school Papamoa with space, privacy and exciting potential still intact. Big land. Prime location. Future possibilities. Secure it now and decide later just how far you want to take the opportunity.

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.
