34 Birch Street, Hilltop

Located in the Hilltop School zone, this Birch Street gem presents a rare opportunity to secure a grand family home with gorgeous lake views and potential galore. Set on a peaceful street where kids can safely play and local shops, a popular restaurant, and quality schooling are just a short stroll away, this three-bedroom home is perfectly positioned for convenient and relaxed living. The open-plan living and dining area is warm and welcoming, with glimpses of Lake Taupō providing a stunning backdrop. A log burner keeps the home cosy through winter, creating a perfect family setting. Downstairs, a rumpus room offers extra space for a teenage retreat, guest room, or home office. The separate laundry adds practicality, and the home’s generous footprint means there’s plenty of scope for enhancement. While the kitchen could benefit from renovation, the potential is clear, and any updates will only add to the home’s value and comfort. One of the standout features here is the extra garage/workshop, cleverly positioned at the rear of the property with its own separate access. Whether you’re a hobbyist, tradesperson, or simply in need of additional storage, this concrete-based structure is an absolute dream. Currently tenanted with the option for tenants to remain, this home is equally appealing as a savvy rental investment or a family-friendly residence ready for a little TLC and personal flair. With lake views and a highly desirable location, this is a home that will shine with some vision and care. Birch Street properties are tightly held, and this one offers exceptional value with space, potential and a whole lot more. DEADLINE SALE: Closes 4:00 p.m. Friday 27 June 2025 (unless sold prior)...
