8 Timatanga Place, Kaikohe, Far North, Northland

Tucked away in its own private setting, this ex-Devonport Navy home is not to be underestimated. Offering a solid start for first-home buyers or investors, this is a property with comfort now and potential to add value over time.

A classic three-bedroom home, it features native timber floors hidden beneath the carpet, waiting to be rediscovered by those with vision. While there is some minor carpentry work required to remedy very small areas of interior damage from when the home was relocated to site, the hard work is largely cosmetic - making this an excellent starter home or entry-level investment.

Step inside, give it a thorough clean and refresh, and you may be surprised by just how warm, comfortable, and cosy this home feels. French doors off the lounge open onto a small landing, providing a third access point, lovely morning sun, and excellent airflow when paired with the heat pump.

All three bedrooms are generously sized and include wardrobes, with carpet throughout and practical vinyl flooring in the kitchen and service areas.

At the end of the kitchen, the dining area is a sunny morning retreat and offers future potential to enhance indoor-outdoor flow by adding doors out to a deck, creating an even better entertaining space.

For investors, the property is Healthy Homes compliant, with the rent recently increased to $500 per week.

This is a genuine opportunity to secure an affordable home with upside.
