First time EVER on market, this classic kiwi character home is on a large flat 812m2 freehold section on the ridge, & enjoys panoramic views of Rangitoto, Tuff Crater & beyond, that cannot be built out. Picture the North Shore in 1959, just after the Harbour Bridge opened: This was the first house in the street! Solidly constructed by the skilled craftsmen of that era with concrete, brick, & beautiful native timbers, this well maintained family home has seen 6 decades of history & will probably last another 6 decades - unless of course you want to demolish & develop the magnificent piece of flat land: It's zoned Mixed Housing Urban which allows multiple buildings of 3+ storeys (up to 11m). Wastewater connection is on site & Stormwater is in the road. Location & neighbourhood are superb, & it's so convenient being just a 10 minute drive to Auckland City (traffic permitting) & an easy 5 minute walk into Northcote Shops which is the North Shore's version of "Chinatown" with the largest range of yummy & affordable ethnic eateries.
You could move in & enjoy as-is or add value through renovation. It's a spacious family home & has a large second living area upstairs. Downstairs you'll find the main lounge, the kitchen, dining room, the bathroom, & the 3 bedrooms: The master is large & the 3rd bedroom has an extra room attached which would be ideal as a study (or move walls around to make it a 4th bedroom). Basement & garage are huge with ample full height dry space for mancave, storage, & workshop. There's also a 2nd toilet.
Vendors are moving to a retirement apartment & absolutely committed to selling: Don't wait, call me now! CV is $1.25M - WHAT WILL YOU PAY?
