On your marks - Developers and renovators

Robert Kennedy said "Some men see things as they are and say why. I dream of things that never were, and say why not?" This mellowing post-war 1950s classic, certainly poses the why not question.

Comprising a single level character cottage on a 1,077sqm (more or less) block of freehold land, the flat access and supremely convenient location are a boon for visionaries. Close proximity to a range of amenities will place this fair and square in the sights of keen developers who can maximise the potential on offer here. Furthermore, a passionate home renovator would see this as a chance to add on an overhaul, while others may just landbank the current three bedroom dwelling for future attention.

Displaying evidence of a series of incremental modernisations over the years including a replaced roof, the mostly weatherboard 91sqm (more or less) home has a sunny north facing aspect. An open plan living and dining room incorporating a standalone log burner has timber joinery French doors opening onto both the front patio and the deck at the rear of the home for a sunny spot to entertain and set up the barbecue. The separate galley style upgraded kitchen has plenty of cabinetry and pleasant aspect. The three double bedrooms are serviced by a single bathroom.

Close to Taupo Golf Club fairways, scenic reserves and a short trip to the town centre, this well-located property is minutes from both primary and secondary schools. For out of town buyers looking for a prime opportunity in a flourishing and popular town with the mountains, lakes, and beautiful native bush on the back doorstep, this could be your next profitable venture.
