Re-clad, renovate and renew the grandeur of this large elegantly styled home in the heart of Bethlehem. Originally built in 1990s, this house has developed some weather tight issues typical of builds of that era, but it has a great floor plan and is a substantial family home with tremendous appeal and huge potential. On a large 905sqm (more or less) section in a popular established neighbourhood of quality homes, building covenants protect the value of any current and future investment with a detailed building inspection report freely available, so all cards are on the table here.
Wide tiled steps lead to a grand double door, double height atrium entry with sweeping staircase. A large formal lounge opens from the left, a home office/fifth bedroom opens from the right, and a separate hallway leads to a bright powder room, laundry with access to the backyard, and internal access from the triple car garage. A large kitchen forms the hub of the home centered between two spacious living and dining areas and opening to paved patios sheltered by stately trees for easy entertaining in a picturesque garden oasis. Upstairs is a large master with walk in robe, ensuite and petite private deck, three more generous sized bedrooms and a family sized bathroom.
Yes, the decor is very much of the 90s era, but there are many attractive original features to this once loved family home - rimu skirting, trim and doors, classic paned joinery with stained glass detail, bay windows, chandeliers and terracotta tiled floors plus an abundance of storage to name but a few.
Located within walking distance to local garden centers, shopping at nearby Bethlehem Village, Bethlehem College and with ready access to arterial routes north to Auckland, Tauranga CBD, The Lakes and beyond, this is a fantastic opportunity for those looking for a project to add value and make an astute investment.
