4 Langford Street, Naenae, Lower Hutt, Wellington, 5011, New Zealand

After years of being overlooked, despite lots of amenities, good schools and great transport links, Naenae has now become much more desirable and prices have risen and are set to stay strong.

 

Small but perfectly formed and only 200 meters from Rata Street School this tidy two-bedroom home is perfect for first-home buyers or investors. A solid, weatherboard 1940s home, tried and tested and very livable as is it is also ripe for modernization – something that you can really put your own stamp on. Its north-facing garden and sunny aspect is also easy-care and very appealing as a rental.

 

So, do your sums and see if what you are currently paying in rents couldn’t actually get you onto the property ladder.
