Description
Discover the perfect entry into the property market or a solid addition to your portfolio with this well-positioned, 1980s-built gem. Tucked away on Riverslea Road South, this three-bedroom home offers the reliability of its era, now elevated by smart modern upgrades where they matter most.
The Heart of the Home: A Brand New Kitchen While the home retains its functional, original charm in many areas, the kitchen has been completely transformed. Step inside to find a stunning, newly renovated workspace designed for the modern cook. With crisp finishes and quality appliances, it serves as the stylish anchor for the open-plan living area, making daily life just that much easier.
The Ultimate Backyard Upgrade: The biggest surprise awaits outside. Forget the modest backyards of typical units; this property boasts a massive new rear entertaining area. It's an expansive outdoor space perfect for summer BBQs, morning coffees, or entertaining friends. This addition creates a seamless indoor-outdoor flow that is rare for a property of this type, providing a private sanctuary that's easy to maintain.
Classic Reliability & Location: The rest of the home offers three well-proportioned bedrooms, providing plenty of room for a growing family or a home office. With a heat pump already in place, you'll stay comfortable through the Hawke's Bay seasons.
- Renovated Highlights: Fresh new kitchen and an oversized entertainer's space.
- Low Maintenance: 1980s construction on an easy-care section.
- Prime Position: A short stroll to Hastings City Centre, local schools, and the green spaces of Akina Park.
Whether you're looking to stop paying rent or start collecting it, 2/701 Riverslea Road South offers the best of both worlds: solid 1980s bones and fresh, modern lifestyle upgrades. This will not be on the market long.
