Welcome to 7/16 Hammond Street, right here in Hamilton Central.

This is a smart, low-maintenance townhouse that offers a really practical city-fringe lifestyle, whether you’re looking to live in it yourself, downsize, or add to your investment portfolio.

Upstairs is where this home really comes into its own. The living area opens out to an east and north-east-facing deck, giving you a lovely outdoor extension to the main living space. It’s a great spot for a morning coffee, a bit of fresh air, or somewhere to sit and unwind without having a full section to look after.

Also upstairs is the main bedroom, complete with its own ensuite, and it connects nicely with that outdoor deck area too. It gives this level a really comfortable and private feel, with the living, bedroom and outdoor space all working well together.

The layout is practical, with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a single internal access garage. There isn’t additional off-street parking, so this will suit someone who values location, convenience, easy-care living and being close to the city.

For families or future tenants, the school zones are also a strong part of the story, with zoning indicated for Hamilton West School, Hamilton Girls High School and Hamilton Boys High School, along with Marian Catholic School. As always, buyers should complete their own due diligence directly with the schools, but it's a great location benefit to be able to mention.

For investors, this one is currently rented at $620 per week, with long-term tenants in place who would be keen to stay if possible. That gives buyers the option of an income stream from day one, while still having flexibility around their long-term plans.

You're also close to the central city, shops, cafes, transport, river walks, Waikato Hospital and everyday amenities, making this a really handy base for busy professionals, first-home buyers, downsizers or investors.

If you're after a modern, manageable home with a great upstairs living zone, a sunny deck, internal access garaging and a location that keeps life simple, 7/16 Hammond Street is well worth a look.
