OPEN HOME: Sunday 26-Apr between 1:00-1:30pm

There’s something instantly appealing here — solid, single-level living with great bones, a functional layout, and just enough retro character to make it interesting. Whether you’re looking for a smart investment, a tidy first step, or a project to add value over time, 11A Nikau offers options.

Set in a quiet cul-de-sac in ever-popular Tawhero, this 103m² two-bedroom home is easy to live in as-is, with clear upside for those who can see the potential.

The living area is generous and filled with natural light, centred around a large picture window and flowing through to a conservatory that feels like a natural extension of the space. It’s the kind of home that already works — but could be taken to the next level with cosmetic updates over time.

A separate dining area connects easily to the kitchen, which offers good bench space and a layout that could be enhanced to create a more modern hub. The retro features throughout give a nod to its era, while also presenting an opportunity for buyers to refresh, modernise, or lean into the style.

Both bedrooms are genuine doubles with built-in wardrobes, and the main bedroom offers plenty of space for full furnishings. The bathroom includes both a bath and separate shower, with a separate WC adding everyday practicality. A laundry room with storage and external access adds further functionality.

Outside, a single garage is complemented by a covered, caravan-height carport — ideal for extra vehicles, a boat or trailer. The section is well-established and manageable, with scope to enhance further if desired.

For investors, the layout, location and low-maintenance nature make this a strong, reliable option with room to add value. For owner-occupiers, it’s a chance to secure a solid home and make improvements at your own pace.

Well positioned near local amenities while still within easy reach of town.

A home with good fundamentals, a bit of personality, and the potential to make it your own.
