Low price, hard work, winning investment

This 1950s three-bedroomed house is a deceased estate advertised in April 2017 (images from that period). The tenant has now left and the house is in need of serious remedial work which is reflected in the low asking price. This is a major do-up well beyond the DIY hobbyist level, but someone with skills could turn this property into an impressive investment. It's a lot of work, no doubt about it, but on the plus side, this is an appealing property on a flat section with mature gardens, shade trees, and a few fruit trees. Inside, a pot-bellied stove adds charm and warmth in the cold months. The entire property is fenced, has a single garage, and a deck and flagstone courtyard make outdoor living a pleasant summer anticipation. In walking distance of schools, shops, transport, and the iconic Parakai thermal pools, this property at this price, plus someone who can do the major hard yards to bring the house up to modern living standards will constitute a winning investment. Not for the faint-hearted, but maybe for you?
The vendor is keen to sell, so open the conversation. Property ID: #HE5987
