There’s something compelling here - a classic Mount weatherboard on a full site, where the potential is just as appealing as the lifestyle.

Set on a generous 683sqm (more or less) freehold section, this is the kind of property that invites options. Keep it simple and enjoy it as is, roll up your sleeves and add value over time, or start thinking bigger with future development potential - the options are wide open. In the meantime, you’ve got space to work with, and plenty of it. Expansive front and back lawns create that increasingly rare feeling of a proper section - room for backyard cricket, kids on the trampoline, or space to park the boat while you plan your next move.

Inside, it’s light, tidy and comfortable with crisp coastal whites and timber floors grounding the space. Open plan living and dining forms the heart of the home, with ranch sliders opening out to the deck - an easy extension for weekend BBQs, afternoon drinks, or keeping an eye on the kids as they play. A heat pump keeps things cosy through the cooler months, while in summer you can throw everything open and let the breeze roll through.

The kitchen sits just off to the side - generously sized, functional and well set up for everyday life, with ample storage and workspace to keep things moving. Whether it’s quick breakfasts before heading out, packing a picnic for the beach, or dinner at the end of the day, it does exactly what it needs to.

Two bedrooms are supported by a family bathroom, while a separate laundry creates a practical drop zone for sandy feet and salty towels after a day by the water.

Location ties it all together. A short stroll gets you to the sand or onto the boardwalk stretching towards Mauao. Cafes, shops, New World, Blake Park and Bay Oval are all within walking distance, with easy access to arterial routes when needed. Zoned for Mount Primary and set in a consistently sought-after pocket, this is a position that holds its value.

Full site, full of potential, and a future you can shape - this is a Mount opportunity with real direction.
