10A Tui Street, Taupo, Taupo

First time selling in 40 years

This well-situated property has been loved and cherished for 40 years by the same owners and is now being sold. Lots of the original features of the 1970s era prevail and the scope to stamp your own style here upstairs and down cannot be underestimated in this location. Perfect for extended families or those seeking to pay down the mortgage faster with a bit of Airbnb income from the downstairs flat, this versatile and comfortable 260 sqm home also offers a work from home space and potential to subdivide off the back section.

The main upper floor has an open plan lounge and dining area with sliders to the sunny deck for extra space to entertain friends and family around the barbecue. For a dress circle view of the lake and to say good morning to the distant Tongariro mountain ranges simply ascend the stairway to the purpose-built rooftop viewing platform. The three upstairs bedrooms are well served by a largely original family bathroom whilst downstairs a fourth bedroom has access to a small living area, a kitchenette, and a bathroom. Additionally, there's that useful home office, laundry, and internal access garaging.

An easy-care fenced section has development possibilities and is very close to the lakeshore. Take the kids for a paddle in the water and enjoy the sparkling vistas across New Zealand's most iconic lake south to Mount Ruapehu.
