65 Flemington Avenue, North New Brighton, Christchurch, Canterbury BIG Home, Project and Opportunity - "As Is"

This substantial home has grabbed the attention of many in its commanding position on the corner of Bower and Flemington Avenues. At 360sqm it's hard not to notice its impressive size - shaped like a giant cheese segment on a 621sqm triangular site.

Just as you may have noticed it, the earthquake sequence found it too. With a floor level variation of 78mm across the ground floor and slopes exceeding 0.5% it sits outside the MBIE guidelines stifling future insurance cover. Direct fix monolithic cladding adds another layer of challenge and complexity, and while historic EQ cracking has been patched and a brand-new roof has been installed, the cladding will require further attention. This one is not for the faint-hearted, but expectations are realistic and the potential to add value and increase equity is huge.

6 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 3 toilets and very generous living areas on each level provide ample accommodation for large families, or perhaps as a residential boarding. The large double garage has an attached workshop space and there is additional on-site parking. There is fantastic indoor/outdoor flow as the northern aspect arcs around with doors opening to the sunny lawn and garden area on the ground floor, and a substantial balcony on the upper level.

Conveniently located 350m from Taiora QE2 Recreation and Sports Centre, 400m from popular Avonside Girls' and Shirley Boys' High Schools, and just 1.2km from the beach, it's an easy commute to the myriad of facilities and amenities that the neighbourhood has to offer.
