Overview

Make Your Mark on MacDonald!

Set on a huge, generous freehold section, 72 MacDonald Street is a property full of opportunity - whether you're an investor looking to add value, a first-home buyer ready to roll up your sleeves, or someone wanting plenty of space to make their own. Built in approximately 1951, this well-established home offers three genuinely generous double bedrooms, with the front two bedrooms benefiting from tinted double glazing. The bathroom and toilet are also fitted with tinted double glazing, while the remaining rooms feature single glazing. A separate bathroom and toilet, along with a welcoming living area to the open-plan kitchen and dining space, complete the practical layout. Outside is where this property really stands out. The expansive yard gives you plenty of room to enjoy, garden, entertain, create a play area, or simply let the kids and pets make the most of the space. There's also a deck for morning coffees and summer entertaining, along with a handy shed/storage space ('as is, where is') and plenty of off-street parking. For the first-home buyer with a bit of vision, this could be your chance to pick up the tools and put your own stamp on a home. For the savvy investor, the combination of three double bedrooms, a sizeable section, and established location offers plenty to work with. Positioned in Marchwiel, you're within easy reach of everyday conveniences, schools, parks and shopping, including Mountainview High School and St Joseph's Timaru School, with Highfield Village Mall, New World Timaru and other local amenities nearby. When it's time to enjoy everything Timaru has to offer, the city is right at your fingertips. Spend a day at Caroline Bay, stroll through the coastal walkways, explore the CBD's shops and cafés, or take the family to CPlay and the surrounding recreation facilities. Big section. Three double bedrooms. Plenty of potential. Whether you're ready to make your first move, looking for your next investment, or you're not afraid to pick up a paintbrush and a few tools, 72 MacDonald Street is ready for someone to make it their own. Come along, take a look and see what you could do with it! Viewings are strictly open home times. For a copy of the property files, please email/text me, and I'll be happy to send them through!
