If you’ve been waiting for a project with real heart, this 1950s brick three‑bedroom at 24A McIntyre Road is the kind of do‑up that gets renovators excited. Full of character, wrapped in greenery and set on a sprawling 1,083m² section, it’s a home with soul — and serious scope to craft your own slice of paradise.

The 100m² floor plan is honest, original and ready for reinvention. The light-filled living room already has great bones: wide windows, a relaxed feel, and sliding doors to an elevated terrace overlooking the garden. The kitchen and dining spaces retain their classic charm, offering a solid foundation for whatever vision you bring.

Three bedrooms give you flexibility to reconfigure, refresh or redesign. The bathroom includes both a bathtub and separate shower, with a separate toilet and dedicated laundry — practical spaces that renovators know can be transformed beautifully.

Outside is where the magic truly begins. Mature trees, sweeping lawns and leafy borders create a private garden that feels like it goes on forever. Whether you imagine a lush landscape, a family-friendly outdoor haven, or a tranquil retreat, the canvas is here. A single garage and extra parking add convenience.

Māngere Bridge brings its own charm — village cafés, local shops, the Sunday market, Ambury Regional Park, Kiwi Esplanade and Māngere Mountain all close by. Māngere Bridge School is an easy walk.

If you’re a do‑upper with flair, vision and a love for character homes, this is your opportunity to create something truly special. Get in touch with Team Suz and Kate.
