First home with potential & exceptional backyard
Looking for the perfect place to start, invest, or add serious value? This one deserves your attention. This charming, traditional weatherboard home with good bones is the ideal first home - bright, sunny, and full of potential. Move in, make it your own, and add value as you go.
Inside, the home feels warm and inviting, with great natural light throughout. The spacious open-plan kitchen and dining room provides a practical layout, with room to enhance over time. There's a separate laundry for added functionality. A separate lounge, three double bedrooms and bathroom with enclosed shower complete the picture.
The master bedroom is a standout retreat, complete with doors opening directly onto a sunny deck. Imagine starting your day with fresh air, treetop views, and peaceful garden outlooks.
An added bonus for comfort and peace of mind - the home already has underfloor and ceiling insulation in place, plus a vapour barrier, helping keep the home warmer, drier, and potentially supporting several key aspects of Healthy Homes standards (assessment required to confirm).
But it's outside where this property really shines. The backyard is something special - spacious, sunny, private, and framed by mature trees. It offers plenty of flat lawn for kids to play and is fully fenced, providing peace of mind for pets to roam freely. Even better, you have direct access to Marfell Park right from the back gate - extending your living space beyond the boundary.
Location here is absolute gold for families and convenience alike. You're only 80 metres from the Marfell Community Garden, 350 metres to Marfell School, around a 12-minute walk to the Blagdon Shops (800m), 1.8km from Francis Douglas Memorial College, and just a 5-minute drive (2.5km) to Taranaki Base Hospital.
Also positioned on the main bus route to the city, with a bus stop only 100m from your door, you have the real advantage of simple, accessible transport within easy reach.
Whether you're stepping into the market, searching for a value-add project, or looking to expand your investment portfolio, this property will also suit anyone with an eye for opportunity.
A traditional home, an exceptional backyard, and the perfect chance to make your mark.
