This is a pre-1920 Cottage, so it is brimming with the character a new build can't fake, and the honest patina that comes with age. Its warmth, craftsmanship and charm belong to another era - and are increasingly hard to find.



Better still, much of the expensive work has already been done.Sitting upon concrete piles, re-wired and re-plumbed. A beautifully updated kitchen with adjoining scullery, gas hob and breakfast bar. An updated bathroom. New carpet throughout, with thick underlay. Woodburner, heat pump and ventilation, so winter's covered. Continuous gas hot water means no fighting over who's showering first.



Three generous bedrooms, two separate living areas and a sun room flowing onto the deck provide space for families to gather or retreat in comfort. Outside, 1,012sqm freehold of flat lawn, established fruit trees, A picturesque stream crossed by a charming white bridge, a powered shed and a large carport. Real room to spread out.



High stud, period detail, three minutes from Otaki town with quick expressway access. With its character preserved, major upgrades completed and room to grow, this is a home that's ready to be enjoyed from day one. Perhaps it's time to write the next chapter.



Deadline Sale closes at 1pm on Wednesday 19 August (unless sold prior).
