Overview

Auction Brought Forward

An acceptable pre-auction offer has been accepted, so the Auction will now be called at 12.30pm Wednesday the 17th of June 2026 at our central city office located at 28 Harwood Street (was to be 24th May 2026) A classic 1940s character bungalow with real exterior charm, this Hillcrest home pairs the appeal of its era with serious scale, flexibility and everyday ease for modern family living. Updated over time and recently refreshed with fresh interior paint and new carpet, the home feels clean, comfortable and ready to enjoy. Four bedrooms are well supported by two bathrooms, including a master with ensuite, while the main living zone is the real surprise. Oversized, open and light filled, it brings together dining, lounging and kitchen with excellent connection through to the rear deck. At the rear, a flexible second living space opens directly to the deck and gives the home real versatility. Use it as a rumpus, media room, additional lounge, large fifth bedroom, work from home space or a separate zone for teenagers, guests or extended family. Outdoors, the 982sqm section continues the sense of scale. Securely fenced and gated, it offers excellent space for children and pets, with a generous rear lawn, established planting, a spa pool and a large deck that creates a natural platform for entertaining. A separate outside room adds another layer of flexibility, while the drive through double garage provides easy access to the rear and excellent parking options. The location is a proven Hillcrest favourite, zoned for Berkley Intermediate and Hillcrest High School, close to local schooling, Waikato University, shops, parks and key routes across Hamilton. Character street appeal, size, school zoning and flexibility are all here in one very complete package. Contact Eric or one of the team to arrange your viewing.
