Position Proximity Potential

First time ever to the market! Opportunities are like sunrises, if you wait too long, you miss them. This home offers much to love with the potential to ignite excitement.
Designed and built by the original owners in the 1970s the plan was to build a large solid home, create good off-street parking and garaging, orientate the living to the sun and views, and give the interior generous proportions. Built of permanent materials this home has stood the test of time, and now it's your opportunity to modernise and revitalise.
You'll bask in the all-day sunshine with main living and 3 bedrooms all located on the upper level. 2 bathrooms including an ensuite, and spacious kitchen means there's little to change with the layout, just modernise and enjoy. Although retro fans may consider keeping the original orange bench tops! The living flows to a large deck and offers views out to Mount Cargill.
Downstairs presents 134m2 of garaging [extra height] and a blank canvas to really improve and add value. You could add a 4th bedroom and install a bathroom next to the toilet, or create a Rumpus room or man cave. Then there is the option to develop a self-contained living unit or keep as is and park the Caravan and other vehicles.
This is prime real estate in Maori Hill, just a few minutes' drive from downtown Dunedin [bus stop across the road] close to great schooling, University and Hospital. Opportunities to put your stamp on property in this area are rare, and to find a solid home with so much potential even more so. So don't delay, be one of the first to ring me and view as the Vendors have now moved on and are keen to sell on Auction day 19th May. No prior offers so you've got time to do your homework, and viewing times are flexible outside of open home times. Call Karla now! Property ID: #DU95792
