9A Kaiuru Street, Nukuhau, Taupo, Waikato

Standing the test of time, this tidy 1980's built, brick and tile home presents scope to modernise and add value.

Situated on the ridgeline with a panoramic view capturing the township, lake and distant mountains, this superb single level home has a compact, easy-care Cross Lease section. The home and gardens allow this to be an ideal lock and leave investment for short and long term lets, a first home, or retirement option for downsizing folk keen to relax and focus on fishing and reducing their golf handicap.

Well oriented around a 140sqm (more or less) floor plan, the cosy, carpeted living room has a heat pump and is open plan with the kitchen and dining area, which opens to a patio where you can enjoy the view. Three bedrooms each comprise a built in closet, with master having a compact ensuite. The family bathroom is a spacious combination catering for the rest of the household. Separate laundry and the single garage has internal access accompanied at the door by off-street parking on a cobblestone forecourt, with more space for a trailer or jet ski behind the gate.

The street is part of a regular bus route – a short public transport or bike ride commute to the town centre. Close to all the natural wonders Taupo is famous for, from Waikato riverbanks to the lake foreshore and leisure pursuits. Handy for shopping, services and schools, this entry level property is your optimal opportunity to add value and savour world class scenery every day.
