What's around 7 Colombo Street

Beauty Is in the Eye of the Beholder

They say you can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear - but perhaps you'll see things differently! Here's an opportunity that calls for vision, imagination and a willingness to roll up your sleeves. Situated in a sought-after central city location, this early 1900s character home offers approximately 110m² of floor area, comprising four bedrooms and one bathroom, sitting on a fully fenced, freehold 339m² section. With all the characteristics associated with a home of this era, there's no disguising the fact that work is required. But where some see challenges, others see opportunity! The roof was replaced in the early 2000s and remains in good condition, providing a positive starting point. Renovate, reinvent or perhaps remove and start again? That's a decision for you to make, subject to any necessary consents. With a ratable value of $465,000, a freehold title and a central city location, the ingredients are here for someone with the vision to unlock potential and create added value. The location cannot be changed, but the property certainly can! My vendors are offering the property for sale by auction, unless sold prior, and I encourage you to come along, take a good look and make your own assessment. Opportunity doesn't always arrive beautifully presented - sometimes it arrives disguised as hard work! To be Sold by Auction 12:00pm on Thursday 3rd December 2026 at Harcourts, 219 Broadway Avenue, Palmerston North (Unless Sold Prior) Call me to arrange your private viewing or meet me at the open home.
