Built in 1965, when you think about properties built the old fashioned way, here is a classic example of this. Bricks, probably sourced locally, on a Pinus Radiata frame with a hardwood T&G floor all under a corrugated iron roof.

There is no getting away from the fact that this house could benefit from a little care and attention, perhaps a new kitchen and bathroom, new lights even. But if ever there was a do-up property that was going to give back a decent bang on every buck you invest this is it.

North/West facing you are not going to suffer from a lack of light, with killer sunsets as a bonus. Then there is the conservatory and deck to really help you take full advantage of the light and view.

The property is being sold as a mortgagee sale and by auction on August 6th in our offices at Harcourts Takapuna. Check out the advertised open homes for viewing times.
