Botched repair - Now "As Is"

Looks good, feels good - but it's just not as it should be. This property was previously repaired under the Canterbury Home Repair Programme but the remediation has been deemed substandard and the vendors have subsequently been cash settled by their insurer.
Floor level variations of up to 68mm in the dwelling and 92mm in the garage are measurable but not discernible. Despite being outside of MBIE guidelines the repairs that have been undertaken have resulted in the home being tidy and very habitable. The vendors own betterment has further improved the 1973 build with partial double glazing, LED lighting and a substantial heatpump.
The site is well established with mature trees and shrubs and offers a vista to the south-east across Bexley Reserve. French doors lead from the separate lounge onto a sunning north-facing deck, and a sliding door transitions from the dining area to a sheltered patio courtyard and pergola. The double garage provides ample vehicle storage and workshop space, and there is additional off-street parking available.
If you are looking for an entry-level step onto the property ladder or have the skills to complete the repair and add equity, then this property is well worthy of consideration. Register your interest today to avoid disappointment. Property ID: #NB3337
