Adorable 1920's Gem

1920's former Railway Cottage has morphed into a 4-bedroom, 135m in floor area family home! Renovated with internal & external refurbishment, for peace of mind re-lined, re-wired & insulation in ceilings & underfloor. The 2-chimneys & fireplaces have been removed, with a heat pump sufficing for heating & cooling. A former sunroom is now a generous modern kitchen, the main bathroom, ample in size boasting a bath & shower, & the laundry is neatly tucked away on the covered back verandah deck.

Fully fenced, with the house facing the front hedging & twin coast highway, the front facade is a distinctive feature of Railway Cottages with a central recessed porch & front door flanked on either side by sash windows - 1048's are working perfectly after being lovingly restored. Love a bit of history? These North Auckland railway line Railway Cottages were built specifically to house railway workers in the 1920's. So, imagine the stories those beautifully polished native timber floors could tell.

Call us to learn about the unbelievable opportunity presented here, whether to be your first family home, an investment, or a home that allows you to free up cash. The record of title is fee simple with 1/11 share of 1.6180 hectares with a leasehold estate of 999 years. Oh, I almost forgot to tell you that there are great outbuildings here too. Albeit they do not show on the flats plan, you have a consented double garage plus workshop with concrete floor, lean-to/carport, & double garden shed with concrete floor, (the former outhouse back in the day).

Only a few minutes' drive from a real NZ town, Maungaturoto with schools, great coffee, & other community facilities & amenities, & for the beach, or fishing, Whakapirau seaside community is a 13km meander through the countryside. For the kids, & Mum's peace of mind 1048 is right on the school bus route. A distant memory is Auckland city circa 90 minutes' drive away. This 1920's gem is adorable, affordable & could be yours!
