DECEASED ESTATE - Tucked away just minutes from Swanson, in the breathtaking Waitakere Ranges, this property offers a rare blend of serenity, natural beauty, and lifestyle opportunity. Surrounded by lush native bush and the soothing calls of Tui and Kereru, this is a home where every day feels like a peaceful retreat.
The Family is committed to the sale, and this property can be an incredible entry level for someone wanting peace and tranquillity, and able to complete the project and take the property to the CCC. More details below.
The main house is very spacious and deliciously quirky: a rustic splendour and charm!
It was built in the late 1990s with eco-friendly materials, designed to work in harmony with its surroundings. Its striking mud brick walls add character and offer natural insulation and passive heating - regulating temperature by allowing the home to breathe and creating a comfortable living environment year-round.
The two large double bedrooms open up to extensive decking where you can just capture views of the Sky Tower and enjoy the birdlife.
The living area exudes charm, with French doors, graceful arches, and a stunning old-style fireplace setting the scene.
The well-appointed kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining and lounge, enhancing the home's warm, inviting atmosphere.
It also offers a spacious office, one and half bathrooms, and verandas with covered decking.
The Building Consent was issued in 1995, but never received its final sign-off from Council and, therefore does not have a Code of Compliance Certificate or CCC.
The owner worked towards it for a few years before recently passing. The property is sold without CCC.
Extensive documentation is available for buyers looking to complete the project and add value.
Another option to explore with Council may be to decommission the main house, and build a new one in a different part of the site.
A bonus to the property is the "cottage", originally consented as a garage studio/rumpus in 1987, offers an incredible space for the family, and would make an excellent home office, hobby room, or teenage hideaway. It's open plan, with its own decking and a bathroom.
Set on nearly 11 acres of land, with the majority in NZ native bush, and plenty of space for children to run around, grow vegetables and raise a few chickens.
This is an incredible opportunity to secure a unique lifestyle property in a prime location. Just a few kilometers from Swanson's village, train station, and amenities, it offers the perfect blend of privacy, convenience, and potential.
If you're ready to embrace this dream lifestyle and take on the project, I'd love to show you around. Join me at the open home, or call for a private viewing - I look forward to seeing you soon.
We encourage all buyers in the $900ks to view it, it's an incredible opportunity to secure a beautiful spot in the Waitakere Ranges! Don't miss out!
