3 Potential Incomes & Development Site? YIP!
Here's your chance to secure a property with serious potential, right in the centre of Johnsonville. Whether you're an investor chasing your next project, a flipper ready to roll up your sleeves, or a home buyer keen on offsetting the mortgage with some potential side income - this one's worth a look.

Currently the owner has it set up as three potential streams of rental income. The front part of the main house has three bedrooms while the back part of the house is a one bedroom. Both areas contain their own kitchen, lounge and bathroom. There is also a very old sleep out on the property at the front, which has as a small sink area and also a bathroom with toilet and shower.

But wait ... there's more. There is a large basement space under the main property with multiple areas and rooms. There is plenty of opportunity here to make this space usable! Maybe a workshop? Extra storage? Or maybe your very own dungeon!

The location alone makes this an easy yes. Just a very short walk to Johnsonville Shopping Centre, the library, swimming complex, and all the main transport hubs. Daily commutes? Sorted. Weekend errands? Done in minutes. It's all on your doorstep.

This is an as is, where is sale. Yes, it needs work, but that's exactly where the opportunity lies. With the right vision (and a bit of elbow grease), you could turn this into something truly special. Renovate, develop, reconfigure, rent it out, or live in one and let the other help pay the bills. There are plenty of ways to make this one work.

59 Te Puia Drive, Aotea
One Of The Best? YIP!
We've seen a lot of properties in Aotea, and to us, this one stands out a little more than the rest. What I love most is the layout has been thoughtfully curated with family living in mind, rather than a typical mass subdivision plan.

If you run a home office, that's covered with a downstairs room near the front door (even has a sink; perfect for beauty/salon services). If you have kids, you've got two separated living spaces. If you love to entertain, the kitchen, dining, living spaces all flow out to the sheltered courtyard space. And if you've got an adult child that you need a safe distance from, then there is a big sleepout in the backyard.

When we look through properties, you can tell a lot from looking at the build. Here, you will find small touches that really make this house a home - tasteful light fittings, extra thick kitchen benchtops, a special place for the spa pool, plugs in all the right places and everyone loves a barn style door!

At the end of the day, when you are sick of the family and just want some alone time, the master bedroom is super-sized for your peaceful enjoyment. It is so big you could even fit an office corner inside. Normally, no one reads this far into property descriptions, so if you've made it this far - give us a call.
