Set behind a white picket fence, this solid and comfortable weatherboard home with aluminium windows and a tile roof offers a wonderful opportunity to move in and make it your own. With space to add your personal touches, it's ready for someone to step in, live in, and create a home that reflects their style.

Inside, wooden floors and a functional layout await: two good-sized bedrooms to the right, a tidy bathroom and laundry straight ahead, and a sunny lounge to the left. The lounge flows into the dining room, which features corner windows and a heat pump, and then on to the separate kitchen that opens onto a deck overlooking the expansive backyard with sweeping views across Te Awamutu and the surrounding rural landscape.

Downstairs, two large basement-style rooms offer versatile space for storage, tools, hobbies-or whatever your imagination allows.

The backyard is huge and ready for your ideas: fruit trees, shrubs, space for chickens, a pet lamb or two, a tree hut, trampoline, or even a swimming pool. Big dogs will love the freedom, and there's plenty of room to make it your own.

Vendor instruction is clear - this property must sell. Motivated and relocating to family in Rotorua, the owners want it gone at auction (unless sold prior).

If you're in the market for an entry-level home with potential, now is the time to act. Check it out. Be prepared. Put your hand up. Don't sit back assuming it'll be out of reach-get your finance sorted, talk to your broker, bank, or family, and put yourself in a position to bid.

This is your chance to step in at your price.

Auction to be held 1st April at 12pm at Property Brokers, 141 George Street, Te Awamutu (unless sold prior)
