Here's one to tug at the heart strings! This character 1910's kauri cottage sits upon its own freehold 340m2 site and is packed full of yester-year charm. Located in the heart of Verran's Corner, and just minutes to Birkenhead Village, it is quite delightful just as it is, and yet there is still scope to add further value. Lovingly restored with a new roof, new heat pump, and new carpet, the home has also been freshly painted both inside and out, and insulated (ceiling & underfloor). The two double bedrooms are light filled and separated by the formal lounge which features high ceilings, wooden panelled walls and a cosy wood fire. A beautiful claw foot bath is resplendent in the family bathroom, and the kitchen dining area with original exposed brick chimney, dining nook and gorgeous wide kauri floor boards throughout, has all the storage you could possibly want. A separate laundry/utility room leads out to a little courtyard. The fully fenced garden is low maintenance and gated with plenty of lawn making for a safe and secure space for little ones and pets - it's also the ideal place to host family and friends for summer gatherings in the afternoon sunshine. Good dry under house lock up storage and ample off street parking ticks a few more boxes. You'll be thrilled to discover this family friendly neighbourhood with its great transport links to the city (which is under 12km away) excellent local amenities, bush walks, and Verran's Primary School is just at the end of the street. Delightfully appealing and beautifully maintained, this warm, cosy and refreshed cottage is now ready to share more history with the next lucky owners who get to live in and love her.
