17 Islington Street, Kensington, Whangarei, Northland, 0112, New Zealand
Centrally situated and nestled in a quiet sought-after street, this much-loved property is on the market for the first time since 1953.
Stepping into the roomy entrance foyer, one is transported back to an earlier era where heart and character were so prevalent – with polished timber floors featuring throughout, the ambience really embraces you!
A spacious, real cutie of a kitchen showcases lots of original cabinetry and attracts the sun, morning and noon. This room leads into the living area offering heating and plenty of natural light whilst affording an outlook to the front garden. There are two generous double bedrooms, both of which have in-built wardrobes. The bathroom with shower and vanity, opens into a spacious laundry room equipped with an amazing amount of storage.
Potential-plus is an under-statement – this is a wonderful home for the creatively inclined and any upgrades here will most certainly add value due to the location.
Offering dual access, the garage opens both ends to allow for additional parking, perfect for the trailer and the section boasts an array of fruiting trees including citrus and fejoa. For the visionary, one might decide to demolish the garage and completely clear the rear grounds to make way for a double garage or possibly another dwelling.
From this home, you can stroll to Café Narnia and other eateries, the pharmacy/gift shop as well as being close to the private hospital, Primecare and Orthopaedic services with less than a 5 minute drive into town.
