There is something reassuring about a home that has quietly stood the test of time.
Built in the 1960s, this classic weatherboard residence with its durable concrete tile roof reflects an era when homes were constructed to last. Solid, dependable and full of warmth, it has been carefully maintained and enjoyed for more than a decade since the current owners purchased it in 2014. Now, as they prepare for the next chapter of their lives, a new family has the opportunity to begin their own story here.
Positioned in truly central Howick, the lifestyle is effortless. Morning walks to Howick New World. Fresh bread from the local bakery. A quick stop at the veggie shop or butcher. Sushi, cafés and neighbourhood restaurants all just moments away. Children can walk to Owairoa Primary with ease. Weekends can be spent at Howick Domain or enjoying the coastal air at Howick Beach. Meadowlands and PaknSave are within easy reach, and it is an easy walk to Howick Village for coffee, shopping or weekend browsing. Everything you need is right here.
Inside offers approximately 110 square metres of comfortable single level living. Three well proportioned bedrooms provide flexibility for family, guests or working from home. The living area is spacious and welcoming, a place to gather, relax and create memories. The kitchen is practical and well positioned for everyday life. The home is charming, tidy and well maintained, with outdoor decking extending the living space for summer evenings, quiet mornings or casual entertaining.
And then there is the double garage.
Yes, a genuine double garage for this three bedroom home.
In today’s newer Howick developments, even a single garage can be difficult to find. Sections are becoming more compact and storage is often compromised. Here, you have a true free standing double garage, not a tandem layout, not squeezed beneath the house, but a proper standalone structure offering real space and flexibility.
Whether for multiple vehicles, tools, hobbies, additional storage or simply room to move, this is a feature that adds genuine long term value. There is also additional parking space in front of the garage, providing everyday convenience for families with more than one vehicle.
This is not a flashy home. It is a solid one. A home with character, substance and a location that continues to prove itself year after year.
For first home buyers, retirees, investors or owner occupiers seeking dependable central Howick living, this is an opportunity that simply makes sense.
