Deadline Sale: All offers presented on Tuesday 16th December 12:00pm, Harcourts Ilam, 292 Clyde Road, Bryndwr (unless sold prior)

Our seller is moving north to build a new home by the sea in Taranaki and needs to get this charming Somerfield bungalow sold to move forward with his plans. Much of his five years here has been spent in the garden creating a variety of spaces for horticulture and relaxing, under the gaze of a glorious 100-year-old pear tree. With the house well-positioned near the front of the 685sqm site, zoned MRZ, developers may be interested. For others, there is plenty of north-facing outdoor area for entertainment and play. Raised beds lie in wait for your summer vegetables, and borders of Portuguese Laurel define the boundaries. Decking close to the house provides ample opportunity for dining and sitting al fresco.

This 1920s bungalow retains many lovely character features with white painted wood paneling, splendid leadlights, and a wonderful bay window at the front. Open-plan kitchen, dining and living flows out through two sets of French doors onto decking and there are three bedrooms, one of which also opens to the north. Modernised over the years, there is still plenty of potential here to add value by further upgrading. In a modest price range, we believe this would be an ideal first home for a young couple or family to move right on in and make their own over time. If schooling is a priority, the property is in zone for Somerfield Primary and sought-after Cashmere High. The Port Hills playground is your backdrop, Pioneer Sports Centre is a five-minute walk, and Barrington Mall is close by.

Our seller has enjoyed this community and will miss the camaraderie of the neighbours, but plans are in place, and the decision is irreversible! Come and see the value on offer here!
