Private Rear Lawn – Subdivide? Build? Enjoy As-Is?

Hidden from roadside is this potentially subdividable (subject to consent) 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom, single carport semi-detached home, perfect for any first home buyer, investor, or downsizer who has an eye out for a longer-term ‘pot of gold’ – especially as the vendor is a serious seller ready to meet the market.

As-is, this home offers a spacious lounge and separate kitchen, a master bedroom with ensuite, two further bedrooms and a main bathroom, ticking the functionality boxes. An exterior maintenance schedule would give the property a refreshing boost, and with considerable character features such as timber floorboards, 1960s construction, and a cosy woodburner, any improvements will certainly add value.

The rear lawn is a great backyard as-is – a perfect play area for kids or peaceful gardens – yet this is also the potential ‘pot of gold’, to one day possibly subdivide and sell, extend the existing residence onto, OR build another unit upon.

I truly believe it doesn’t get any better than Abbie and Julie. As a mid twenties female I have struggled with other agencies with not feeling heard, or understanding the lingo and processes. Right from my initial inquiry Abbie was quick and thorough with her communication, everything was explained to me in words I could understand, and I left my first meeting well informed, with all my questions answered and I felt confident in the process. Every step of the way from there on out the communication was regular and thorough, the photos turned out amazing, the advertising was top tier, all of my open homes were busy and the detailed feedback reports after each open home were super helpful. The final sale process was smooth and throughout the entire process nothing was too much for them. It was very clear to me throughout the process that Abbie and Julie do this because they totally love it, all communication goes directly through them, there’s no personal assistants or office ladies, the whole experience is personal. I can not recommend Abbie and Julie enough, there is something very special about the way they work, Buying or selling they’re definitely the ones you want on your team!

Group 165

"In all of our real estate endeavours, we have never had a more thorough and professional involvement than we have had with Abbie and Julie. They sold our house almost immediately upon listing and talked us through every critical stage of the process. We referred a colleague to them and their home was sold with similar results. We would highly recommend Real Estate Taupo to anyone looking to buy or sell a property in the Taupo region. Signed by two very happy customers."

Darryl and Fiona Hart

"Abbie and Julie were incredible to work with. From initial comprehensive market analysis in appraisal, to providing an excellent "do to list" before putting on the market (and the "if time- less for purchaser to do" list). Nothing was missed. They were available to answer all our questions throughout the whole process. Open home and private showing feedback was provided each time with useful information and temperature gauge of how property may be placed to sell, or what may be needed to get the right price. Expectations were kept realistic and when the deadline came, multi offers were presented which resulted than a higher than our initially expected price. This was our first time working with an agent who works with both seller and buyer, so we were dubious however Abbie went well and beyond ensuring both parties were well informed and happy with everything. No surprises or hidden things popped up. I would not hesitate to recommend Abbie and Julie as their professionalism and wonderful personalities made a potential stressful situation a very enjoyable process. If I could rate 10 out of 5 stars I would!"
