Renovate, Rebuild, Reimagine - Huge Land Awaits!
Huge price drop $819,000. Where do you find a generous 1773 m² land area more or less, with 3-bedroom home-originally built in the 1960s-that still carries echoes of its former beauty for this price? Once admired for its stunning tongue-and-groove flooring (now partially covered with parquet), the home's original character still shines through, waiting to be brought back to life with a thoughtful renovation. Though time has taken its toll, the property holds enormous potential. With a little love, it could once again become something truly special.
Soak up the afternoon sun on the back deck, perfectly positioned just off the kitchen-ideal for relaxed weekend barbeques. It's easy to imagine the good times here; the current owner even managed to park a 16-foot boat on-site. Downstairs, you'll find a spacious storage room currently serving as a man cave and laundry area-practical and full of potential. The property also offers ample parking and a carport. Possible minor dwelling potential too !!
Given its single-house zoning, you might even consider building a brand-new home to make the most of the expansive land, which offers a rare sense of space and tranquility. Despite being in Auckland, it feels like a lifestyle block, providing privacy and seclusion with a spacious backyard that was once beautifully landscaped with a lush lawn - now's your chance to reap the rewards and bring it back to life with your own gardening touch while being just around the corner from cafés, buses, great schools, supermarkets, and all essential amenities. Also just around the corner from the famous Verran Road primary school.
The owner who purchased it 21 yrs ago has loved living here but is ready to move on for various reasons. The motivation is huge and the owner is realistic!!!
