3/43 Kitchener Road, Takapuna

In Takapuna, the truly original ones are almost gone. 3/43 Kitchener Road has been in the same ownership for twenty two years, most of it quietly tenanted, and in all that time she has been left exactly as she was built. No half finished renovation. No previous owner's taste to undo. No compromise you must live with because someone else made it first. She is a rare thing. A clean slate on one of the North Shore's best known streets. Elevated and open to the north light, she sits above the road and holds the sun. Two generous bedrooms. A large rumpus that gives you real room to work with, a second living space, a home office, whatever the plan turns out to be. A separate laundry, and a double garage, which in this pocket of Takapuna is worth more than most people realise. She is tired. We are not going to pretend otherwise. The carpet, the kitchen and the bathroom all belong to another decade. But the bones are sound, the layout is generous, the footprint is right, and every dollar you put into her lands in an address that has never stopped appreciating. This is a value add proposition in a suburb where those have become very hard to find. And then there is where she stands. Hurstmere Road and the Takapuna cafes are a short walk, as is the Sunday market and the long sweep of Takapuna Beach with Rangitoto sitting out in front of it. This is one of those addresses where the car stays in the garage most weekends. When she is finished, she is also the easiest kind of home to own. Low maintenance, lock up and leave, ready whenever you are. Bring the vision. She has been waiting a long time for someone to have one. Who lives in a house like this… you do.
