It's hammer time - we're going to Auction!
To be auctioned 12.00pm, Tuesday 11 November 2025 (unless sold prior) at Property Brokers, 51 Taupo Quay, Whanganui. 59 Bignell Street is a solidly constructed 1910s character villa just fizzing with potential! This spacious property sits on an impressive 1030 m2 (approx) freehold land, offering ample room for outdoor activities and huge future development potential. With a generous floor area of 144 m2 (approx), the dwelling features semi-open plan kitchen, dining and living, three double bedrooms, bathroom and laundry. The north facing lounge soaks up natural light and sun most of the day, with dining and kitchen basking in afternoon/evening sunlight. You'll love the extensive use of native timber and beautifully designed pressed metal ceilings. Make the most of these attractive, true craftsman era features in your renovation or upcycle the materials into another work of art. Laundry and storage at the rear of the property are ripe for renovation and there is plenty of scope to create easy indoor/outdoor living at front and rear of the dwelling. This grand old Edwardian dame definitely needs some TLC to bring her back to her stunning best, but with solid, well crafted construction in long-lasting native and metal materials, the renovation potential is immense. The large flat section provides plenty of space for extra large garaging, workshop or studio. Landscape to your heart's desire or explore the subdivision potential (subject to local Council approval). Make no mistake, this is a fantastic opportunity for capable DIY home owners, experienced renovators and investors/developers. Make your appointment to view today or take advantage of the open homes.
