23 Karaka Street, Wainuiomata, Lower Hutt, Wellington

Positioned in ever popular Parkway, 23 Karaka Street is the kind of opportunity that’s getting harder to find. For first home buyers or investors, this is a home where the heavy lifting has already been taken care of, leaving you free to step in and add the finishing touches.

What really sets this property apart is the amount of work completed behind the scenes. A new roof in 2023, remedial work to the piles and house levelling, and significant electrical upgrades including rewiring in key areas all combine to give genuine peace of mind. This isn’t just surface level improvement, it’s the kind of work that protects your investment long term.

Inside, the home has undergone a substantial refresh. Walls have been relined in multiple areas, insulation has been added where it counts, and the interior has been repainted throughout. The kitchen has been updated with new finishes and an induction setup, supported by electrical upgrades, giving you a modern, functional base with scope to further enhance storage over time.

The layout is practical and easy to live in, with three bedrooms including two genuine doubles. The main bedroom stands out, opening through French doors to its own small deck, a simple but effective space to enjoy a morning coffee or a bit of fresh air.

Living wraps around nicely, creating a sense of flow while still allowing for defined spaces. The home is positioned on an 809m2 section between both front and back yards, including a private, elevated rear section that offers further potential to develop, landscape, or simply enjoy. The section has been tidied and secured, with fencing stained and gates added to make it safe for kids or pets. Additional upgrades like improved drainage and the convenience of a double garage with a toilet and washing machine connection add further practicality.

This is a home that’s tantalisingly close to the finish line. Most big jobs are done, and what’s left is the opportunity to make it your own, whether that’s polishing the floors or laying new carpet to suit your style.

Homes offering this level of underlying work, with room to add value, are always in demand. If you’ve been waiting for something where you can step in with confidence and still reap the rewards, this is one to act on. Contact Team Alice & Aaron today to secure this home.
