Modern Coastal Living for over 55s
The Dunes Lifestyle Village is a modern, over 55 community at Papamoa Beach, offering secure, easy living in a well maintained environment. This near new two bedroom unit is an ideal option for singles or couples wanting a comfortable home with minimal upkeep.
Built in 2021 by Golden Homes, the open plan layout brings together the kitchen, dining, and living areas in a practical, light filled space. A heat pump provides year round comfort, and the neutral colour palette and quality finishes give the home a clean, modern feel.
The kitchen features contemporary cabinetry, good storage, and quality appliances. Both bedrooms are peaceful, well sized rooms designed for everyday comfort.
A private patio area extends the living outdoors, offering a sunny space to enjoy Papamoa’s climate without the need for extensive maintenance.
The leasehold ownership structure provides a low entry point, allowing buyers to free up capital while still securing a home in a desirable coastal setting.
This property offers a relaxed and friendly environment, with Papamoa Beach, The Sands Town Centre, New World, Papamoa Plaza, cafés and other everyday amenities all within easy reach.

How we worked this out
| Council valuation, May 2023 | $450,000 |
|---|---|
| Market movement in Tauranga City since the council valuation | +3.1% |
| How Papamoa sells against council values | +1.9% |
| Homes of this age in Papamoa | +0.7% |
| Homes in this price range | −3.1% |
| Land as a share of the value | +1.0% |
| Nearby recent sales (15) | −2.0% |
| Our estimate | $457,000 |
We start from the council's rating valuation, move it by how sales in the area have moved since against their own council values, then by how properties like this one, nearby sales have done against the same arithmetic. Each step is an average of real sales. Tested every month against sales we had not seen: half land within about 6% of our estimate, and about 8 in 10 within the range. This is an automated estimate, not a registered valuation.

Building consents
We hold no building consents for this property yet. The council may hold records we have not seen.
If it is yours, claiming it puts the council record, the title and what it costs you to hold in one place — and lets you put your lending, insurance and power out to people who compete for them.
We check your name against the registered owner on the title before a claim is accepted. Nothing on this page changes for anyone else, and no provider is contacted until you ask.
Zoning and hazards
What the council's published maps say about this land. A map is a model of a storm, not a record of one: a LIM or a flood report says more.
Reading the council's maps…
What could you build here?
See whether a granny flat fits beside the house: the Building Act exemption, the national granny flat rules and the zone’s own. Then ask builders to price the shape you pick.
