2/11 Wrack Street, Kensington, Whangarei, Northland

Is this one of the best buys you'll see this year? Right from the start, you'll notice this is not your typical two-bedroom unit. Built in the 1990s with solid brick and tile construction, it's a generation newer than most units on offer in Whangarei. Even better, over the past two years, more than $100,000 has been poured into renovations and improvements, transforming this solid brick and tile home. All the work is done. The money has already been spent. Now someone else gets to benefit.

Features you'll love: Brand new custom kitchen by Crawford Joinery New appliances including a Fisher & Paykel dishwasher Fully refreshed interior with new paint and flooring throughout Renovated bathroom with separate toilet Heat pump for year-round comfort Front deck with privacy blinds Garage turned into hobby room with new garage carpet and ranch slider The hobby room is a fantastic bonus space, perfect for a workshop or art studio. If you would prefer to return it to a traditional garage, the owner has retained the garage door and it can be supplied to the next owner.

Location is another strong point. Kensington is one of Whangarei's most convenient suburbs, with shops, medical centres, cafes and everyday

amenities all close by. In fact, the current owner no longer drives and comfortably walks to everything she needs. But the biggest factor here is motivation. The owner has already bought elsewhere and at the asking price of $609,000 this home is priced well below what it has cost her, close to a $100,000 loss. For the next lucky owner to call this place home, this creates an incredibly sharp buying opportunity. Contact Rae Ocean and Sandie Kirkman today to arrange your viewing. Asking Price $609,000. www.rwwhangarei.co.nz/WHC38758
