Just five minutes from the CBD, this elevated 1960s weatherboard home offers a rare chance to secure affordable city fringe living in sought after Brooklyn. Held by the same owners for over 40 years, it's now being offered for sale by auction as they retire to be closer to family - a genuine opportunity for anyone wanting a solid, sunny home with room to grow its value.

Well positioned for sun and privacy, the home is well maintained and move in ready with an easy layout, while the generous 765 m2 section unlocks further potential. The property retains the charm and warmth of a classic Wellington home, with scope to extend, modernise, or enhance the outdoor spaces - whether that's terracing the rear garden, adding a front deck, or simply enjoying the home as it is. The setting gives you flexibility without locking you into one path.

Three bedrooms provide flexibility for first home buyers, growing families, or investors. Brooklyn School, childcare, and the village shops are all an easy walk away, with public transport just steps from the door. The CBD and south-coast beaches are only five minutes by car, and the airport is around 15 - ideal for anyone wanting convenience without the city price tag.

The vendors are motivated to achieve a sale on auction day, so if you've been waiting for an opportunity with both lifestyle and long term potential, this is it. LIM and builder's report available to view.

Open homes this week: Wednesday 5.30-6.00 pm and Sunday 1.00 -1.30 pm.
