Nestled in the heart of Grafton, Auckland, this residential apartment at 5f/3 Whitaker Place offers a comfortable living space with a single bedroom and bathroom. Constructed in 1997 with concrete walls and an iron roof, this unit title property is positioned on a level contour, though both the walls and roof are in a poor condition. Despite the lack of car parks, its prime location and the potential for value appreciation make it an attractive proposition.
Since the last valuation in June 2017, the capital value has held steady at $130,000, with no increase observed. However, the HouGarden AVM estimates the property's worth at $132,500, and the latest sale history shows a significant jump from $55,000 in August 2013 to $170,000 in August 2024, indicating a possible upswing in the property's market value.
For families with school-aged children, the property falls within the zones of several reputable schools. Auckland Grammar, a secondary school with a decile rating of 9, is within reach, as are Newton Central School with a decile of 7, Ponsonby Intermediate at decile 9, and Auckland Girls' Grammar School at decile 3, providing a range of educational options.
