A new villa with surprises for Pam

“I can’t get over how peaceful it is out here. I like getting up early in the morning and there’s silence with no sirens or car noise - it’s great.”

Another surprise has been the internal garage, something Pam hasn’t had before.

“When you come home when it’s hot or wet outside you can just go into the garage and unload the car boot easily,“ added Pam.

She’s also a fan of her spacious kitchen and even her grandson mentioned she can ‘watch television while also making dinner at the same time’. Pam moved from an established 100-year-old house in Te Awamutu and after a quick sale she was ready to move on.

“I knew the stairs and maintenance would be an issue the older I got. The few things that I looked at I didn’t like at all and they needed lots done to them.”
