40 Years of Family Living

When we come across a mostly original 1960's build in real estate, being sold by an owner of the past 40 years....we know it's a great opportunity to add value and reap the rewards.

We know it's a great opportunity because a family only stays for 40 years if there is nothing making them want to move, and we also know it's a great opportunity because houses were built well in the 1960's so we call them houses with 'good bones'.

This home is certainly one of those good opportunities, it has great indoor outdoor flow, a lovely morning sunbathed back yard, a good sized double garage with extra workshop room attached, and plenty of scope to add value over the coming years if you want to upgrade carpets and colours.

Three good sized bedrooms all with built in wardrobes, an updated bathroom, a separate laundry and a separate lounge, getting some of the essentials ticked off your list. Along with a log burner (out of date but maybe able to upgrade), a heat pump and DVS system, ticking all the heating/healthy living boxes off your list also.

Our owner has moved into retirement living and has put a call out to any new family (young or old) to take this opportunity for their own.

An auction may take place once Christchurch is out of lockdown but if you wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to register your interest prior to that happening, we will welcome your interest to buy before hand.
