Some properties simply offer more than a place to live - they offer the chance to create something special.
Perfectly positioned in the heart of Hokitika, this substantial weatherboard character home presents an exciting opportunity for buyers with vision. Offering generous proportions, timeless character and a location that will always be in demand, this is a property where your investment in refurbishment could be well rewarded.
Behind its classic façade lies a surprisingly spacious floorplan designed to accommodate growing families, shared living or those simply wanting room to spread out.
At the heart of the home is a generously proportioned open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, creating a welcoming space for everyday family life. This space is heated via woodburner however a ducted heating system plus additional heat pump services the entire home, convenient and functional alternative heating options at the touch of a button. A covered rear porch extends the living outdoors and provides a sheltered entrance regardless of the season.
Accommodation is exceptional, with five genuine bedrooms, each complete with built-in wardrobes - an increasingly rare offering in today's market. The practical layout continues with an accessible wet-floor bathroom incorporating a shower, vanity and toilet, complemented by a second separate toilet with vanity and a dedicated laundry.
Outside, the detached garage provides excellent storage or workshop space, while the generous 1005sqm section offers plenty of room for children, pets, gardens or future landscaping projects.
While the exterior has been well maintained, the interior presents an exciting opportunity to modernise and add value. Refurbishment including wall/floor coverings and cosmetic improvements will allow a new owner to personalise the home while capitalising on its generous proportions and highly desirable location.
The property also includes an existing fire alarm system. Accordingly, the property currently operates under a Compliance Schedule and Building Warrant of Fitness requirements. Future owners may choose to retain this system or investigate their removal, subject to the relevant approvals and intended future use of the property.
