Property listing ID: 424663
This is not for the faint hearted, but this is an opportunity for someone with vision to repair this three bedroom home and reap the rewards. Yes, it is a leaky home with an assessor's report available. But wait - there's more. This is a very large 1794m2 site with two houses and a hot water bore. Both houses are currently tenanted and are jointly rented for $670 per week. Even with its problems, this is well worth a look to the right person. Opportunity knocks. Situated near the Helensville township, Parakai has it's own unique characteristics that set it apart, whilst retaining the "small village" feel. For some, the attraction lies in the natural thermal pools that have been a favourite for visitors and locals alike. This underground spring supplies three recreational pool complexes, motels, private residences and the local rest home. The water is naturally between 60 -70 degrees celsius and is famous for its minerals and healing properties. The Hydroslide at Aquatic Park, Parakai Springs is very popular and has been a landmark in Parakai for the last 25 years, still attracting visitors from far and wide today. Fishing and recreational charter boats pick up passengers from Springs Road wharf and the boat ramp there also proves popular for those wanting to access the river that winds through the township. With a small but well-stocked mini mart and several restaurants and takeaway bars, Parakai truly has all the necessary attributes that make it a great little suburb, with all the benefits of the surrounding area's adventure parks at Woodhill, Muriwai, Shelly Beach and the South Head Macadamia Nut Farm within a 20 minute drive. What more could you want, with Auckland's C.B.D only 45 minutes away? Come and have a look at Parakai as a way to escape the rat race of the city and breathe in the fresh country air.
