88a King Street, Taradale, Napier, Hawke's Bay

Tucked away privately and quietly off the street, this solid 1950s home offers modern upgrades, generous space, and versatile living in a highly sought-after location.

The home features two bedrooms plus a separate office, along with an additional outside hobby room, perfect for a teenager, or as a private space to work or relax away from the main house. The property has been thoughtfully upgraded by the vendors. Four years ago the roof was replaced, new gib in some rooms (with insulation added to the walls there), and in the ceiling and underfloor. Partially double glazed with new aluminum windows and doors making the home warm, comfortable, and energy-efficient. The kitchen also features a new oven and rangehood which has barely been used.

The home showcases the solid craftsmanship of its era while benefiting from modern updates such as a renovated bathroom and a new heat pump for year-round comfort. The lounge flows seamlessly to a fully fenced garden, perfect for entertaining or enjoying quiet outdoor living. Established trees, two garden sheds, a carport and generous off street parking room to park a boat/motorhome or add a garage if desired all set on well-proportioned grounds complete this appealing package.

Located within top Taradale school zones and walking distance to the Taradale Shopping Centre and local amenities, this property presents an excellent opportunity for first-home buyers, investors, or those looking to downsize while staying close to everything Taradale has to offer. A quick settlement is on offer, move in ready.
