Description
This 3-bedroom Maungaraki home offers a fantastic opportunity for buyers looking for something solid, reliable, and ready for its next chapter. The big-ticket items have already been taken care of - a recently replaced roof, new double-glazed windows, insulation, and a DVS ventilation system - giving you a strong foundation to build from.
The open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area provides a practical layout for everyday living, while the separate laundry adds welcome functionality. You'll also find a family bathroom with separate toilet for convenience.
Outside, the large fully fenced backyard is a real standout. There's loads of space for kids, pets, gardens, future projects, or simply a blank canvas for your landscaping ideas. With plenty of scope to refresh, modernise, or fully renovate over time, this is the perfect place to roll up your sleeves and make it truly your own.
A spacious carport and generous off-street parking complete the package.
Set in the heart of the friendly Maungaraki community, this home is walking distance to Maungaraki School, kindy, playcentre, local shops, and bus stops, and is zoned for Hutt Valley High School - making it ideal for families.
This family have secured their next home, so don't miss your chance to make this one yours. For sale by Auction on Wednesday 17 December at 6pm (if not sold prior). Contact us today for more information, and come along to one of the open homes.
