Overview

Estate sale – first time on the market in 65 years

An exceptional opportunity to secure a classic home in one of Gisborne’s most sought-after locations. This much-loved property, held by the same family since new, is now available for the first time in over six decades. Positioned on an elevated, sunny site with views, this home is largely in original condition—ready for a new owner to modernise and add value. The spacious layout features three bedrooms, a generous open-plan dining and living area, and the added convenience of a separate toilet, bathroom, and shower room. Original built-in furniture reflects the character of the era and offers plenty of storage. Constructed in timeless cedar weatherboard with updated aluminium window inserts, the home also offers the potential to enhance outdoor living with the addition of decks or extensions. Outside, the private section is a true gem—sun-drenched and planted with a variety of established fruit trees. A single garage with workshop space, a carport, and ample off-street parking complete the package. Located just a short walk to Central School and the vibrant Ballance Street Village, you’ll enjoy local cafés, shops, a pharmacy, and more right on your doorstep.
