Auction: 8-12 The Promenade, Takapuna on Wednesday 17 September 2025 at 9:30AM (unless sold prior)

They just don’t build them like this anymore! Built in 1965 by the skilled craftsmen of the era, this solidly constructed brick and concrete block family-sized classic has beautiful tongue and groove rimu floors throughout.

It’s on a large freehold 708m2 gently sloping section, zoned Mixed Housing Suburban so it is a great landbank for potential future development (subject to council consents). The gorgeously large flat back yard is perfect for your gardening fix and for the kids to run around, trampolining or playing summer cricket.

Location is so convenient, being a short walk to city buses, highly sought-after Windy Ridge Primary School, lush bush reserve and easy access to Glenfield Mall, College and Intermediate.

Upstairs are 3 double bedrooms, separate living room, large open plan kitchen, dining and sunroom area with great outdoor flow to the north facing deck and front yard which is bathed in sun, privacy and greenery. There’s a separate toilet and the bathroom has a shower plus bath. The kitchen is fully functional and has a nearly new Westinghouse double wall oven. This home is all very liveable as-is plus but you will probably want to modernise throughout to your taste. The HRV ventilation system, insulation and heat-pump means it can be comfy even on the coldest winter mornings.

Downstairs is an extra room which was originally designed as a “playroom” but has been used for many years as a 4th double bedroom, plus there’s an extra toilet and shower which are both fully functional (but unconsented and to be sold as-is). The original garage has been converted with a ranch slider plus there’s a massive basement area for storage, hobbies, music and movies or mancave.

This property has so much potential! The vendor says please ignore the $1.3M CV: It must sell as they have moved to Australia and already bought. Give us a call or come to open homes as advertised.
