Somewhere along the way, everyone started building the same house. This isn't that house.
This is a genuine 1970s time capsule, brick and block, mid-century modern bones, original fittings that have come full circle back into style and the kind of construction quality that modern builds simply can't replicate. For those with the vision to retro-vate rather than renovate, the reward here is enormous.
This is a home for a family that wants space and personality. At 260sqm across two levels it is a big home by any measure, and the 837sqm (approx) of mostly flat section tucked into a quiet Otumoetai cul-de-sac means the kids have room to run, there is still space for a pool when the time is right, and plenty left over for the boat or motorhome too.
Inside, three generous bedrooms are positioned upstairs alongside an expansive lounge and dining area that makes an immediate impression. The original kitchen offers plenty of retro charm, while a separate bathroom, toilet, and shower room help ease the morning rush. Downstairs, the current owners are utilising space within the generously sized garage to suit their own lifestyle requirements, incorporating a lounge area, additional rooms, and a toilet, offering flexibility for a range of uses.
Port and water views frame the outlook, a sunny aspect fills the home with light, and with Otumoetai College, Intermediate and local primaries all within walking distance, the school run is a stroll rather than a commute.
This is a home for people who see what others walk straight past. In Otumoetai, at this size, with this much character and this much upside, you will not get a second chance at this one.
Don't delay, call Lisa today.
