Property details

Listing # IM27893 | Listed on 10 October

A recent fire made the home instantly un-liveable for the owner. With absolutely no alternative, this must be sold 'As Is Where Is' so the family can move on.

THE HOUSE CAN NOW BE VIEWED INSIDE.

This is an un-insured house post-earthquakes, in which the current owner has resided in for nearly 17 years, raised 6 children and absolutely loved everything about it.

On offer is approx. 1196sqm of highly desirable land - a corner site with "Buy Me" written all over it!

Selling "As Is Where Is" with no vendor warranties and very much as you see it, this was a slightly worse-for-wear house that has now become a blackened ruin on the inside. Fire damage. Water damage. Smoke damage - there's just no way you can currently live in it.

Could it be repaired? - come and take a look and you can decide.

You could consider a single family home on this mouth-wateringly large site.

Or subdivide and build high quality houses or townhouses - you know the area supports and demands it.

Another option could be an 'Over-60-'s' community.

The local schools are fantastic. So is the elevated position.

And the supplied Geotech report says "MBIE TC2 Slab-on-grade Options 1- 4 foundations are considered suitable for the support of a new dwelling" - great news for new builds there.

Whatever works for you, do know that the writing is on the wall - a sale is imminent, the question is - "who to"?

Auction: From 10am Wednesday 29th October 2025, Harcourts, Holmwood Real Estate, Ilam 2 Office, 397 Ilam Rd, Bryndwr (not selling prior)
