Property details

Listing # 2314677 | Listed on 22 February

Positioned proudly on one of Hamilton’s most recognised and tightly held addresses, 720A River Road is the kind of property that quietly whispers opportunity while confidently delivering lifestyle.
Solid brick construction provides immediate reassurance - a home built in an era where durability mattered. Inside, mid-century character adds warmth and familiarity, while thoughtful upgrades ensure comfort for modern living. Fresh paint, brand-new carpet, and revitalised landscaping mean you can move straight in without distraction, yet there remains genuine scope to enhance, personalise, and add value over time.
Clever design maximises every one of the 132 square metres. Three well-proportioned bedrooms, a functional bathroom, separate laundry, and double garage create a layout that simply works. It’s practical, efficient, and refreshingly honest - no wasted space, no unnecessary excess.
The west-facing living area is where this home truly comes alive. Large bifold doors dissolve the boundary between inside and out, opening onto generous front decking drenched in afternoon and evening sun. Established trees and refreshed landscaping create surprising privacy, offering a peaceful retreat from the energy of River Road. Morning coffee feels slower here. Evenings feel longer.
Both front and rear yards are fully fenced and secure - a feature families immediately understand. Children play freely. Pets roam safely. Life feels contained, protected, manageable.
And then there’s the avocado tree.
Mature, fruiting, and unapologetically abundant. Thousands of avocados each year, growing quietly in your own backyard. A small luxury that somehow feels like rebellion - avo on toast without hesitation, brunch without budgeting, hospitality without compromise.
Location, of course, needs little introduction. River walks, Days Park, cafés, and some of Hamilton’s most sought-after schooling options sit comfortably within walking distance. The Base, Chartwell, and the CBD are all just minutes away, placing convenience firmly on your side.
Available for the first time in over 16 years, this offering speaks to scarcity. Homes on River Road, particularly within this price bracket, rarely present themselves. This is a property that has served as both a cherished home and a dependable investment - a place where stories were built and futures secured.
Now it waits for its next chapter.
Whether you’re stepping forward, starting fresh, protecting what matters, or positioning yourself in a blue-chip location, 720A River Road delivers something increasingly rare
