44 Roberts Street, Taupo

Actually not that rough but will reap huge benefits from being polished.

Present owners have used it as a holiday home alternating between the UK and here, so have been very comfortable living exactly as they bought it over twenty years ago. So, as you can imagine, it is time for a makeover. But the bones appear very sound with brick clad lower level.

Look at the benefits it has to offer - completely private rear section, gorgeous views towards the lake and Acacia Bay over vacant land unlikely to be developed in the foreseeable future, free thermal bore feeding radiators throughout plus the sizeable enclosed hot pool, living areas on both levels, and huge potential with some imagination. As it really is in original condition, original carpet, original bathrooms, original kitchen, could even be original wallpaper - this is a project, but one well worth the effort it will take.

There is generous living space on the ground level with bay windows taking advantage of the view, with a second lounge/rumpus room upstairs leading to the master ensuite. If altered slightly, this bedroom would have outstanding views toward the lake below. There is a freestanding double garage with workshop space plus extra sealed parking.

All of this opportunity in the tightly held little Waipahihi secret cul-de-sac being Te Hepera Street
