A Diamond In The Rough! Deadline Brought Forward

Overflowing with potential on lovely Lakewood Drive, this solid Summerhill Stone starter is entry-level perfection. Private, spacious and incredibly sunny, adding value here is easy whether you're a couple, family or investors.

Facing north-west on an accessible 616m2 section, this very appealing 1980s bungalow is a home sweet home in the making. And the best bit? It won't take much to bring this budding beauty back to full bloom. With four double bedrooms and a generous bathroom to suit, the living areas are equally as impressive. The well-appointed separate kitchen leads into a substantial open plan dining/living area where two sets of doors take the term 'indoor/outdoor flow' to a whole new level. One set of doors leads to the warm confines of the sunroom, which is pure bliss on a sunny winter's day, while the other doors spill out onto the deck, which is perfect for when you're entertaining a large group. And ticking the 'functional' and 'comfort' boxes, there's a separate laundry and heatpump.

Outside, the low-maintenance grounds are partially fenced for privacy and a magnet for sunshine. The large covered deck is an enviable asset, especially for get-togethers, while raised planters are waiting to be filled with your favourite flora. There's a garden shed and a double off-street garage for extra storage, and two off-street parking spaces to complete the appeal.

Located just five minutes from the bevy of amenities at The Palms, the school zonings here are also impressive with Waitakiri Primary, Shirley Boys' High and Avonside Girls' High and the surrounding local parks and reserves make this a green and serene corner of the city to call home - a smart investment for now and the future.

Scoring top marks on sun, space, privacy and location, this diamond in the rough ticks every 'must-have' box. So dare to dream, roll up your sleeves and try your luck because this precious find could be yours. Call me today to get your foot in the door.
