Description
AUCTION: Wednesday 22 October from 10am, Holmwood Auction Rooms, 397-399 Ilam Road, Bryndwr (unless sold prior)
Lovingly cherished and preserved by just one family since it was built in the 1930's, this totally original bungalow brimming with character features is a walk back in time. Now selling on behalf of the estate of their grandparents, the grandchildren have wonderful memories of happy times here.
Set on a 466sqm Freehold title in this sought after Papanui Street, there is enormous potential to modernize. In an affordable price range, this could be a wonderful project for eager first home buyers. There is an extra-large single garage and a big back yard with room for play, growing veges, or loads of extra parking for vehicles. Inside, all is liveable, but we can see plenty of rooms to add value. Just two bedrooms currently, there are several living options, and a third bedroom could be a possibility. Open plan kitchen/dining has a gas fire and there is a huge laundry nearby. The front of the house faces North with the master bedroom and living room warm and sunny. A heat pump deals with those dreary days.
Located close to main arterial roads, this is a convenient but quiet situation a mere ten minute walk to Northlands and all the cafes and eateries in the area. If schooling is important, then the property is in zone for ever popular Paparoa Street Primary.
The end of an era for one family, will be the beginning of a new life for another. Come and see if that could be you!
