1/74 Sutton Crescent, Papakura, Auckland

*3 Bedrooms + OFFICE/STUDY *2 Huge Containers *Fully fenced front yard *Parking for 6+ Cars

Presenting your diamond in the rough, look past the tired bits and you'll find something pretty special underneath. A standalone, road-frontage home with the size and space you just don't usually get with a cross-lease.

Featuring 3 bedrooms plus a spacious study, a fully fenced front yard and a generous rear area with plenty of room for the toys, projects or even a mini car yard, there's plenty to work with here.

And because storage is never a bad thing, two containers are included as chattels - perfect for extra storage, a workshop, hobby space or, dare we say it... your very own man cave.

The owners have been living in Australia and the tenant has now moved out, so this one is ready for someone with a bit of vision - and maybe a few weekends free.

Does it need some TLC? Absolutely. Does it have strong bones? The expert eye says yes. Could it become something seriously good? We think so.

Whether you're after an affordable but sizeable first home, you're the type who actually enjoys a DIY weekend, or you're a savvy investor looking for an opportunity rather than a finished product - this one could be right up your alley.

Bring your imagination, your toolbox and your best pair of work gloves.

It's rough around the edges, but the potential is anything but.
