70 Mackesy Road, Parahaki, Whangarei, Northland

Spanning across seven decades under the same ownership, this property has quite the story to tell.

Offering up to four bedrooms plus office or nursery, the home has been extended over the years to cater to its growing family. Featuring a large lounge with separate dining area, each enjoying elevated views across the upper harbour towards Okara park and beyond to Maunu. Upstairs, the outlook is even more impressive.

A covered verandah allows you to watch the yachts go by and enjoy the sun in all seasons, while a character kitchen is ideal for meal preparation. The family bathroom with separate toilet round out the amenities.

Two carports and a standalone garage offer all the undercover parking you could want, along with an expansive concreted driveway. The 1,768 sqm (more or less) of land features a veggie garden, outdoor patio and small greenhouse, blending into a natural bush backdrop. Underneath the home is a cavernous basement area with power and lighting- suitable as storage, hobbies or even a work from home proposition.

All this less than 5km to town- bring your imagination, as the bones are here to add value and transform this property into something very special.

On the market for the first time, this property is surplus to requirements and a must sell.
