Auction: 8-12 The Promenade, Takapuna on Wednesday 25 November 2026 at 9:30AM (unless sold prior)

Builders, traders and buyers who’ve been waiting for the right site, this is the one to see. First time on the market in 63 years!

Here’s the honest truth; built in 1963, this home is in original condition and needs a complete renovation. If you can look past that, the rewards are huge.

Stand on the rear deck and you’ll see why. The outlook sweeps across Tuff Crater to Rangitoto, an amazing view that you simply can’t add later. Whether you restore the home or start afresh (development subject to council consents) this property has been a cherished family home and sits on a generous 905 m2 site.

Renovators will love the bones. Upstairs the family lounge has an open fire, warm Matai timber hides beneath the carpet, there is a flexible layout across two levels, and the downstairs storeroom was originally built as a photographer’s darkroom. A huge rumpus flows straight out to the garden, making it ideal for family living or creating your own space. The downstairs laundry also has a shower and toilet with a door to the garden.

Access to the motorway and the regenerated Northcote hub are so simple. Minutes to great schools, shopping centres, the hospital, and Onepoto Domain make this such an amazing location.
