Auction 9 December (unless sold prior)

Sun-soaked living, solid bones and fresh paint and carpet make this two bedroom unit a smart pick for savvy buyers ready to step onto the ladder or level up their portfolio.

Positioned just moments from Howick Village, this single level starter is a blank canvas with all the right fundamentals. The generous living area welcomes in natural light with French doors that open to a private courtyard that's perfectly sized for pets, pot plants or a morning coffee in peace.

The kitchen is tidy and functional, with good storage and a leafy outlook, while the freshly painted interior brings a bright, refreshed feel throughout. New carpet and floors have been installed, so you can move straight in or rent it without delay.

Two double bedrooms offer good proportions and wardrobing, complemented by a bathroom with separate toilet. The bathroom is ready to add further value if desired or just roll with the retro.

A carport provides off street parking, and you're in zone for Owairoa Primary, Howick Intermediate and Howick College. Located just a short walk to the main bus routes and the best of Howick Village life with its great shops and cafés, you could not ask for a more perfectly positioned launchpad.

This is one of those rare opportunities that hits the sweet spot between potential and position. Whether you're downsizing, investing or dreaming big on a do-up, here is your window of opportunity.
