SOLD
3-Bedroom Solid Timber Home + Large Sleepout on 814 m²
A classic 1940s timber home with real character and plenty of upside. With native timber floors just waiting to be sanded and polished, this is the kind of property where a bit of elbow grease could really transform the look and feel of the interior.
Set on a freehold 814 m² (more or less) section in Kaikohe, the home also comes with a large sleepout – ideal as extra bedroom space, an office, hobby room or storage.
QV’s estimated market value as at 24th Nov 2025 is $390,000.
Just a short drive away are the famous Ngawha Springs hot pools – a geothermal complex with around 16 mineral pools and a long reputation as a restorative, healing place to soak. Ngawha Springs is approximately 5 km east of Kaikohe (around a 7-minute drive). Local Mid North / Northland residents can get discounted “local” rates compared with standard visitor pricing (check current prices on the Ngawha Springs website)

Why this property works:
Strong “bones” – a solid timber house from an era known for sturdy construction
Great potential to modernise the interior: paint, polish the floors, update kitchen/bathroom over time
The large sleepout adds real flexibility for family, guests, or work-from-home
Good-sized section offering options for landscaping, vege gardens or outdoor living
Whether you want a no-nonsense rental, a starter home you can gradually improve, or a project with room to add value, 7 Purdy Street is well worth a look.
