12 Toetoe Road, Otaika, Whangarei, Northland

Price negotiable in the $500,000s

Welcome to 12 Toetoe Road-where the vision is yours and the potential is obvious.

This isn't a polished showhome, and that's exactly why you'll love it. It's got big space and a few upgrades already sorted but it's ready for someone with a tool belt, paintbrush, and Pinterest board to finish what's been started.

What's already done:

• New roof and spouting - tick.
• Updated kitchen
• Two showers, two toilets and a deep bath

What's left? That's up to you. The layout's a winner with three bedrooms up top, and bonus rooms downstairs for a home gym, hobby cave, teen hangout-or that questionable drum kit you won't let inside.

There's a tandem garage, space for all the toys, off-street parking, and rural views that remind you you're not smack in the city-but still close enough to everything Whangarei offers.

The owner's relocated to the South Island and isn't coming back for it so this one's up for grabs, and vacant now.

Whether you're first-homing or finally ready to try that "reno journey" your mates keep talking about-this is your chance.

Call Rae Ocean & Sandie Kirkman for more info or come check it out this weekend. Bring your imagination and measuring tape!
