16 Waipuia Place, Greenhithe, North Shore

Rare, ready and realistically priced

Set on a fully fenced 805sqm (more or less) section in one of Old Greenhithe's quietest and most sought-after cul-de-sacs, this sunny four-bedroom family home is offered at $1,495,000, well under CV, in a suburb where recent sales have consistently traded above it.

Start with where it sits. A leafy, low-traffic street, close enough to walk to the village, the school, the park and the tennis club, yet tucked away in a setting families choose and then stay in for years. Central, established and safe.

Inside, the home does the practical work well. The open-plan kitchen, dining and living area and a separate lounge are light-filled and easy to live in day to day, and the covered deck outside is an all-weather space built for entertaining, with the fully fenced lawn giving children and pets room to run. Four bedrooms, generous off-street parking with space for a boat or campervan, and a section with real breathing room.

On the question every buyer asks about a monolithic home, the answer is already in hand. A comprehensive builder's report is available and shows no issues. Double glazing and new guttering are both done.

While comparable Old Greenhithe properties have been selling above CV, this one is priced well under it. That combination, in this street, does not come along often.

Buyer also searching Albany, Hobsonville, West Harbour, Mairangi Bay, Riverhead and Whenuapai should move on this one quickly.
