20 Lloyd Street, Parkvale, Tauranga, Bay of Plenty

In a quiet residential street with the amenities of Fraser Cove just a stroll away, this neatly presented property is most definitely an opportunity for those looking for a start on the real estate ladder, an investment or a bit of a project. On a large 812sqm site, with picturesque water views of the inner harbour, this solid 1960s era brick home with a retro vibe is sure to tick a lot of boxes.

Gently modernised with a crisp white décor, the stone topped kitchen with island and updated bathroom seamlessly complement the original warm Tawa floors, interior timber joinery, high ceilings with decorative plaster scotia trim, leadlight feature doors and authentic stone mantle. Enjoy the wonderful view across the harbour towards Maungatapu and beyond, while relaxing or entertaining in spacious dining and living, while four large bedrooms easily accommodate family in this surprisingly roomy home. Very practical is the sizable laundry sharing dual access to the separate WC, and basement double garage with over height stud, room for storage and extra off street parking.

With sturdy stone retaining walls, a wide concrete deck and ramp to the ‘park size’ garden, decorative wrought iron balustrades and gates, the hard landscaping is done and a ready base on which to build new gardens. Some established trees frame the view, but a keen gardener can really flex their talents here. Yes, it’s a little tired but apply some vision and sweat equity and imagine the possibilities!!

This central location with its’ proximity to Fraser Cove and Gate Pa shopping, excellent schools of all levels and ready access to Tauranga CBD and various arterial routes has an excess of unrealised potential. Don’t hesitate, bring your best ideas and view today to make this property yours.
