34 Mckenzie Street, Taneatua, Whakatane, Bay Of Plenty

There's something a bit special about homes from this era. The craftsmanship, the proportions, the feeling when you walk through the door.

This three-bedroom home showcases beautiful high stud ceilings and original wood panelling through the lounge and hallway, creating warmth and character that's getting hard to find. The living space feels generous and inviting, with a woodfire providing a cosy focal point through the cooler months.

The kitchen has had a partial refresh, offering everyday practicality while still leaving scope to enhance and add value over time. From the dining area, step out onto the deck for morning coffee or relaxing.

A welcoming front porch enhances the home's street appeal, while a separate storage or utility room provides flexibility for hobbies, storage, or a potential work from home space.

Outside, established fruit trees add seasonal enjoyment and a touch of self sufficiency. The carport provides generous additional storage and workspace options adding excellent practical utility.

As with many character homes of this era, there are areas that will benefit from further work and finishing touches, presenting an opportunity for the next owner to add value and truly make the home their own. Recent piling remedial work has been completed, providing added confidence in the home's foundations and long term stability.

If your shopping list includes heart, character, charm, practical extras, meaningful structural improvements, this is a property with scope to enhance over time.
