Awhitu - Derelict Bach with Jetty

Description

This once-hidden waterfront bach has re-emerged from years of overgrown foliage. Neglected for many years, its not just uninhabitedits been quietly taken over by furry four-legged visitors. Evidence suggests theyve made themselves at home in the three bedrooms and living area, with one room providing unexpected "nourishment" whenever it rains.
What does the future hold for this property?
Retain & Refurbish:
This project is not for the faint-hearted. A new roof tops the To-Do list, and a bold visionary could see the potential to restore this once-charming retreat to its former glory. Consider adding a wide living deck to maximise indoor-outdoor flow and make the most of the sweeping harbour views.
Demolish & Rebuild:
Given the bach's 80-year age, asbestos is likely present. Starting afresh offers the chance to build your dream waterfront escape. Reconstruct the steps down to the jetty, which currently has caution tape around it, and design a home that takes full advantage of the expansive views across the harbour to Aucklands iconic Sky Tower. Imagine catching snapper from your jetty every high tide as they seek out the sandworms.
