19a Tainui Drive, Havelock North, Hastings

A most tempting buy

Motivation is the key here.

A charming and well-positioned property on one of Havelock's quietest streets, this three-bedroom home is ready for you to make your mark and take full advantage of its solid, generous layout and perfect position close to the village.

On a 691sqm (more or less) site so close to Tainui Reserve that you get to share in the wonders of its abundant birdlife, this property is ready to move into right now but also ripe for refreshment. On the lower level is where you can enjoy the open plan kitchen and dining through to large living and a very private recently added sunroom designed to capture the morning sun, while a door off the lounge has a veranda facing the road so you can enjoy the afternoon sun as well. A double bedroom, family bathroom and separate laundry complete the ground floor plan.

Upstairs features an additional two bedrooms, including the spacious master bedroom with generous en suite sporting a separate bath and shower, not to mention an area for an office on the landing.

The verandah, low maintenance bricked courtyard and easy care gardens create a lovely outside space for unwinding, and the kids love to ride down the hill on their bikes and skateboards, and spend hours climbing the flowering cherry tree. There is plenty of opportunity for a buyer with vision to further develop this outdoor area, with the surrounding neighbourhood lending itself to native planting and an abundance of green.

With a compliant wood burner, garage with its own lavatory and within walking distance of popular reserves and the village, this home is the perfect opportunity to make the move to this much-loved neighbourhood.

The vendors are downsizing and need some action.
