If you’ve ever dreamed of owning a classic Kiwi holiday home in Paihia, this could be your chance. Just a short stroll to the beach, village shops, cafés and the local school.
Loved by the same family since the 1960s, this home proudly wears its retro charm. Think earthy mosaic kitchen tiles, classic formica, stainless steel finishes and all the character of many seaside holidays. A fun step back in time, and a fantastic opportunity for someone with vision.
This could be an affordable option for all home hunters and investment seekers.
Upstairs is the main living level, connected by a wide stairwell. The large lounge is bright and cheerful, opening onto an outdoor area with a glimpse of the ocean, perfect for catching the sun. The kitchen still shows off retro details, has been freshly painted and is ready for meal prep.
Both bedrooms on this level are generous with double wardrobes, and the sunny master opens onto its own deck. The upstairs bathroom is one of two in the home, with a bath, separate shower and separate toilet. An office space (big enough for a single bed) and a separate laundry complete this level.
Downstairs adds a whole extra dimension. This large studio-style space currently accommodates bedroom, lounge and dining, plus a kitchenette, shower and toilet. It can be accessed internally or separately with its own entrance. It’s more functional than finished, but perfect as a teen retreat or continued Air B&B.
The neighbouring section, currently enjoyed as an extension of the yard, sits on its own title and adds a further 1,012 sqm. It will now be offered together with the home as one complete package at auction, creating a generous outdoor setting with established fruit trees to enjoy now, along with exciting future development potential for a savvy buyer.
Affordable homes within walking distance of Paihia’s beach and village are always in demand, and this one brings personality and opportunity.
LIM and building inspection reports are available on request.
Plenty of street parking and you won’t miss the house… it’s painted a very memorable 1960s mustard!
