12 Cockle Place, Stillwater, Rodney

Deceased estate - home and opportunity

This property, which must be sold, has come onto the market for the first time in around 30 years and offers a huge opportunity for an astute buyer.

On a big 1,277sqm (more or less) section the property comprises the main three bedroom, two bathroom house in a peaceful cul-de-sac setting. There is also an unconsented two bedroom dwelling. The cosy main family home boasts a woodburner for heating. Two of the bedrooms are downstairs with a separate bathroom so this space would be perfect for your children. The garaging space is for three cars or perhaps you could convert this into a good-sized workshop.

Ideally if would suit someone who is prepared to undertake the replacement or renovation of the small dwelling while living in the comfort of the main dwelling which is also an excellent renovation project for any new owner. Given the size of the section, application could be made for the minor dwelling and you would then be able to produce extra rental income or be occupied by extended family.

Cockle Place is a quiet cul-de-sac only a few minutes from the local Stillwater boat club which has an all-tides boat ramp - perfect if you are keen on boating and fishing. School buses come right into Stillwater so you can see your children off to school and be there at the local bus stop at the end of the day. Stillwater is a wonderful family community with a modern community hall used for a variety of interesting events.

On the banks of the Weiti River, Stillwater is just 30 minutes off-peak from Auckland CBD and with the start of the Penlink crossing and motorway linking the North Shore to Whangaparaoa, travelling times to the North Shore and city will reduce. Stillwater is confirmed to have its own on/off ramp on to the new motorway.
