A Legacy House on Hillcrest - PRICE ADJUSTMENT

Our instructions are to reduce the price to $375,00 which is good news if you're a large family or an investor looking for something with potential. This property has a lot to offer, and it has it's Healthy Homes compliance certification.

As you would expect with a house built in the 1920s, there are some beautiful woodwork features lovingly crafted in native timber. One of these is a wood-panelled foyer - creating a nice transition from the outside world to the calm of the inside.

The original part of the house has 4 large bedrooms, a lovely big lounge with a very effective Kent-style fire, and the main bathroom. The kitchen and dining area are situated near the rear of the house, and there's also a 5th bedroom or a 2nd lounge area, a 2nd bathroom, and the laundry.

A couple of renovation options I see are to combine the front bedroom and existing lounge to make a large open-plan living area. That would allow you to create a large master bedroom at the rear with an ensuite and a large office or second lounge area. Or, create a fully self-contained Granny flat out of the rear. Either way, you are only limited by your imagination and of course any Council planning permissions.

Outside there's a large private rear section with plenty of room for the whole family and an old ivy-covered garage - resurrect or replace!

Yes, it needs some TLC

Yes, it has some quirks

Yes, it will need some investment over time

But right now, it's very liveable and the long-term tenants would ideally like to stay. Currently paying $470.00 per week with an overdue rent review not yet in place, it suits their large family down to the ground.

Conveniently situated on the corner of Hillcrest and Tawanui Roads, don't let the exterior colour put you off. Call Leigh now on 0274 911 840 to arrange a private viewing, so that you can experience firsthand the special nature of this house and see why it has stood the test of time.
