Lovingly enjoyed by its current owners for 42 years, this wonderful character home sits on a grand 1,424 sqm section (more or less), that oozes with potential. If you're looking for an opportunity to renovate, extend, or subdivide and develop, then this is the one for you! Those looking to subdivide and develop will be pleased to know this property falls under the Residential Mixed Housing Suburban Zone, with stormwater and sewer line connected to the property. The home itself sits on two levels, with the incredibly spacious master bedroom with ensuite and its own relaxed sitting area enjoying solitude upstairs on its own. You'll appreciate the timber framing and pitched roof, which gives it a wonderfully warm feel. Downstairs, you'll find an inviting living room as you enter the home, complete with timber framing, a brick fireplace, inbuilt shelving and a cosy window seat to enjoy. Throw open the deck doors and soak up the sun on the front deck! The open-plan dining and modern kitchen sits at the back of the house, enjoying wonderful flow outside onto the wrap-around deck, which overlooks the spacious lawns. Flowing off from this area is a double bedroom with deck access, and a single bedroom. There's also a tidy family bathroom and plenty of storage space centrally located downstairs. Set among quality neighbouring houses and perfectly positioned within easy reach to the Albany Highway Shops, motorway access, Albany Mall, Massey University and a range of quality schools, this is a great opportunity that is sure to appeal to many. So make sure you put this at the top of your open home viewing list! VIEWING BY APPOINTMENT - CALL RIVER OR ANNA TO ARRANGE A TIME.
