Auction: 34 Shortland Street, City on Wednesday 4 December 2024 at 10:00AM Heres affordable, ground-floor level entry into a chic inner city suburb, to a step-back-in-time historic corner of Auckland. Due for a makeover, this original turn-of-the-century 1900s villa can be restored and modernised by redoing the kitchen, and bathroom and perhaps even extending the home further out into the spacious rear yard. This is prime city fringe living at its best with oodles of shopping and eateries on your doorstep. You could move in, and enjoy everything the location has to offer, as you gradually transform this gem. As it has passed its Healthy Homes inspection, it could even become an ideal rental proposition for you, giving you the opportunity to earn income as you secure consent for future renovations. This is very much an original awaiting your magic touch. A fabulous yard out the back is ideal for the family to play, while you can soak up the sun on the square front veranda which gives the home its truly awesome street appeal. Youll appreciate the proximity to public transport and motorways, with the bonus of cycle paths at both ends of the street, that link up with inner city cycling routes. Grab this desirable piece of real estate, and seize the chance to come out ahead with a total makeover, by transforming this diamond in the rough.
