A "big, gutsy" decrepit villa in the heart of Kingsland that was described as a total do-up has sold for well over $1 million.
Barfoot and Thompson sales agents Matthew O'Rourke and Ryan Harding posted on their Facebook page that the property, which was marketed by fellow Barfoot agents Repeka Lelaulu and John Elgar, sold on Wednesday for $1,362,000.
Elgar said earlier this week that the central Auckland property had "huge interest".
He said the deceased estate at 7 New Bond St had 72 groups enter its doors and have a look around.

Deemed the ultimate fixer-upper, it was built in the 1900s and was described as a "spacious elevated villa" with four bedrooms and one bathroom on a 607m2 level site.
"The ornate ceilings, architraves and wooden floors are all still intact," the listing stated.
A large shed also sits at the back of the property which Elgar suggested could potentially be transformed into a home office or sleep-out.
"It's one of the biggest sections in Kingsland", he said.
