Good Bones, Great Potential

If you’re looking for an affordable entry into the property market, a renovation project, or an opportunity to add value over time, this 1950s three-bedroom home in Rakaia is worth a look.Set on a private rear section, the 84m² home sits on a generous 504m² section and offers a solid starting point for someone prepared to give it a little attention. The original kitchen is functional, while the roomy lounge provides a comfortable central living space, complete with a wood burner for winter warmth.There are three bedrooms, a family bathroom with bath and shower, and the home has the benefit of underfloor and ceiling insulation. While the property is certainly ready for some titivating, the fundamentals are here to work with.Outside, the generous lawn provides plenty of room for children, pets, gardening or simply enjoying the privacy of the rear section. Covered parking, two additional carparks and gravelled access add to the practicality.Located on Rolleston Street, you're within easy reach of Rakaia's township amenities, with Rakaia School and the Domain also close by.It’s not pretending to be brand new – but with some vision and a little elbow grease, this could be a great place to call home or a worthwhile project to add value to.For more information or to arrange a viewing, contact Tracy Stevenson.
