Clean it up, Fix it up, Live it up!

'As Is' and uninsured, deserted yet unequivocally desirable. The vacating tenants have left you a job and an opportunity.
Offering space, privacy and convenience of location - but the earthquakes have taken their toll and the inclination and ability to maintain what was clearly once a stunning family home has waned. EQ damage assessments have deemed the property to be repairable.
Sited on an impressive 1071sqm rear section this 3-bedroom family home has been modified and extended to meet changing needs. A generous garage and integrated workshop offers 80sqm of covered space for vehicles, storage, hobbies or a home-based business. The large studio provides additional accommodation or would be well utilised as a recreational facility.
The dwelling is nudged into the south-west corner of the property providing full use of the outdoor living area which is fully-fenced and gated. A north-facing conservatory offers a seamless transition between the living area, deck, lawn and gardens which are both sheltered and sunny. The lounge has a cathedral ceiling with exposed beams. Two of the bedrooms are very generous and there is one single room.
Call now for further details on this exciting project located just 900m from Barrington Mall and zoned for many popular schools including Hoon Hay, Somerfield, Thorrington, Christchurch South Intermediate, Cashmere High, Hillview, Middleton and St Thomas'. There is plenty of scope to add real value here. Property ID: #NB3272
