This is a house that demands to be noticed. Sitting in prime position on the corner of Katui Street and Seaview Road, the property has awesome views over Milford Beach, Milford Marina and Lake Pupuke, as well as the lights of downtown Auckland. The Hauraki Gulf, with Rangitoto Island taking centre stage, is framed by a quaint, historic church and a pohutukawa tree, stunning in its crimson Christmas flourish.

It can be a pretty frustrating exercise trying to find the ideal family home. You want a place that’s easy to look after, not to be a slave to on your precious weekends when you want to spend time with your kids.

Once this property came to the market a watertightness inspection uncovered 3 spots requiring attention as there was leaking evident. At auction a local builder bought the property with the intention of recladding it.

This one is a bit of a flawed beauty. It’s immaculate, but a building report has identified some issues. Sort them out and the living will be easy. Buy it and you’ll make some money. Well maintained, this flawed beauty must be sold. Nervous but determined vendors are resolved to move on. Make it your new project and reap the rewards.

This home looks absolutely fine and I am sure the problems are minor, but you must check for yourslves. We’ve got the LIM report from the North Shore City Council, there is a Code Compliance Certificate, no problems here. We’ve had a watertightness report done by Robert Visser, take a look, but remember the vendors want to move on and this is an unconditional contract.

This home has an easy flow from open plan living to the deck and low maintenance garden, good double bedrooms upstairs and modern bathrooms.  It is perfectly located right by Smales Farm, the hospital and the North Shore’s best schools; in Milford, on the flat. It is absolutely amazing how convenient, the hospital, and five schools are within walking distance.

Here is the Watertightness Report.

Lim Report is available with CCC.
