I was built around 1972 and nothing has changed since then! I have fabulous timber floors, which would come up beautifully with a sand and polish... and the rest is in need of ripping out and starting again! Good real estate is that which you buy well in a great location, have a budget for an easy makeover, and then keep or sell it on at a profit, depending on your needs! I am a little beauty and you should absolutely take a look because my owner is ready to auction me off as he is out of here! My owner purchased me back in 2005 as his bachelor pad, and between postings at sea with the Navy, he has loved how sunny I am and my location to public transport. The bus passes by to either Takapuna/Akoranga Bus Station or Bayswater Ferry (to CBD) and Marina. Overseas travel is in his blood and in December he is off to explore and live another chapter of his life. His plans are made, his resignation given, his bags are packed and nothing is going to stop him! Vendor is realistic and ready to sell. ALL investors and first time buyers should take a look at me. I'm part of a block of 6, nice and quiet off the road, and there is scope to create a pretty garden out the front.
