Nestled in the serene Allenton neighborhood, on the quiet cul-de-sac of 14 Hefford Place, stands a charming 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom residence on a sprawling freehold section of 754sqm. Constructed in 1972 with solid stone walls and an iron roof, both in good condition, this property is a perfect blend of classic appeal and modern comfort. The capital value has seen a remarkable increase of 34.48%, from $290,000 in 2018 to $390,000 in 2021, reflecting a sound investment opportunity. The latest sale in 2024 fetched $465,000, a testament to the property's growing appeal. The HouGarden AVM estimates the property's worth at $392,500, aligning closely with market expectations.
For families with school-aged children, the property falls within the catchment area of several well-regarded institutions, including Villa Maria College (decile 9) and St Thomas of Canterbury College (decile 8), ensuring access to quality education. Ashburton Christian School, Allenton School, and Ashburton Borough School are also within easy reach, each with their own unique educational offerings.
Not only is the location and educational access enviable, but the property itself boasts a heat pump for year-round comfort, built-in wardrobes in all bedrooms for ample storage, and a separate double garage for secure parking and extra storage. The addition of a tunnel house at the rear provides the perfect space for green thumbs to cultivate their own produce. This is a home that invites comfort, privacy, and potential, making it an ideal choice for first-time buyers, investors, or those seeking to downsize.
