Where family memories are made - BEO $749,000

This is a home where memories will be made! Summer afternoons around the inground pool, children playing in the garden, friends gathered on the patio and plenty of room for everyone to come together, this is family living at its best.

Designed with entertaining and a larger family in mind, the generous living spaces both open through sliding doors to the patio and pool area, creating fantastic indoor/outdoor flow. At the heart of the home is the open plan kitchen, dining and family living area, warmed by a woodburner and flowing seamlessly into a spacious separate lounge. The kitchen offers excellent storage and a breakfast bar, while new carpet adds a fresh feel.

With six bedrooms spread across two levels, there is room for everyone. Downstairs, the main bedroom enjoys convenient access to the bathroom, and is joined by two further bedrooms, a separate toilet, and a huge laundry with a bonus tiled shower, perfect for rinsing off after a swim in the pool. Upstairs, you will find another three bedrooms, a stylish bathroom, and a separate toilet, an ideal layout for teenagers, guests, or a growing family.

Outside, the grounds are a wonderful haven for children to explore. Established planting provides an easy care setting, while a tree swing brings back the simple pleasures of childhood. There is monkey bars, a pathway through the arbour and plenty of places for adventures to unfold.

Garaging is exceptional, with a double garage plus a separate large garage and workshop, providing an abundance of space for vehicles, hobbies, a boat or all the family toys. There is also excellent off street parking.

Set in a popular North/East Levin location with Fairfield School just a short walk away, this is much more than a house. It is a home created for family, friends, fun and years of wonderful memories.

Homes offering this much space, garaging and family lifestyle are hard to find. Come and see just how well your family could fit here.

Our estimate$973,000

We start from the council's rating valuation, move it by how sales in the area have moved since against their own council values, then by how properties like this one, nearby sales and its own last sale have done against the same arithmetic. Each step is an average of real sales. Tested every month against sales we had not seen: half land within about 6% of our estimate, and about 8 in 10 within the range. This is an automated estimate, not a registered valuation.

Nobody is tracking this property yet

If it is yours, claiming it puts the council record, the title and what it costs you to hold in one place — and lets you put your lending, insurance and power out to people who compete for them.

Free. Takes about a minute.

We check your name against the registered owner on the title before a claim is accepted. Nothing on this page changes for anyone else, and no provider is contacted until you ask.

What claiming gets you
1One live recordCouncil valuation, title details and registered interests, kept current rather than gathered again every time you need them.
2Your lending in the pictureAdd what you owe, or connect the bank, and the equity and LVR stop being a calculation you redo by hand.
3Providers compete for itPut the mortgage, the insurance and the power out to people who want the business — on your terms, when you ask.
4Everything else you ownOne search finds other titles in your name and in companies you are a director of.

Zoning and hazards

What the council's published maps say about this land. A map is a model of a storm, not a record of one: a LIM or a flood report says more.

Reading the council's maps…

What could you build here?

See whether a granny flat fits beside the house: the Building Act exemption, the national granny flat rules and the zone’s own. Then ask builders to price the shape you pick.
