A rare opportunity in the heart of Morrinsville
Some properties offer a home, while others offer an opportunity. 96 Lorne Street is one of those properties. Held by the same family since 1948, this substantial property is being offered to the market for the first time in almost 80 years, presenting a rare chance to secure a generous piece of Morrinsville real estate with plenty of options for the future. Inside, the home offers comfortable and practical living, with an inviting open-plan layout bringing the kitchen, dining and living areas together to create a welcoming space for everyday family life. The kitchen has been recently painted, giving it a fresh and appealing feel, while the updated bathroom and separate toilet add further convenience. Three bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation for the family, with the added benefit of an outside storage room offering valuable extra space for hobbies, equipment, gardening gear or simply keeping things organised. For those who need plenty of garaging, the large four-car garage is a real highlight. Whether you're a keen handyman, car enthusiast, tradesperson or simply need somewhere to store the toys and tools, there is an abundance of room here, along with plenty of additional storage. But it is the land and development potential that could make this property particularly exciting for developers and astute investors. Set on approximately 1,515m2, this substantial landholding presents a rare opportunity to explore the potential for subdivision and development into three titles, subject to Council approval, planning requirements and all necessary consents. For developers, the combination of a sizeable site, established dwelling and convenient town location provides an excellent foundation to investigate a potential multi-title development. For investors, it offers the possibility of unlocking significant additional value from the land over time, while retaining the existing home as part of your investment strategy during the planning and consenting process. Opportunities to secure a section of this size, in such a handy Morrinsville location, with the potential to create multiple titles are becoming increasingly difficult to find. Whether you're an experienced developer looking for your next project or an investor searching for a property with genuine future upside, 96 Lorne Street deserves serious consideration. For families, the property offers something equally appealing – an abundance of land and space to spread out, enjoy the outdoors, accommodate vehicles, pursue hobbies and create your own vision for the future. And then there is the location, Morrinsville's CBD is just a short stroll away. Shops, cafes, schools, services and everyday amenities are all conveniently close, making this a practical location for families and an appealing proposition for developers and investors alike. After almost eight decades with the same ownership, properties with this combination of history, landholding, location and development potential are rarely offered to the market. Whether you're looking for a spacious family home, an investment with future upside, or your next development project, 96 Lorne Street offers an opportunity worth exploring. Don't delay – contact me today for further information or to arrange your viewing.

Built in 2020, immaculately maintained and looking every bit as good as the day it was finished, this is one of those homes where you can simply move in, unpack and get on with enjoying life. Offering three generous double bedrooms and two bathrooms, the master comes complete with built-in wardrobe and tiled shower ensuite. The main bathroom has both a freestanding bath and separate shower, plus there’s a separate WC – because nobody enjoys a morning bathroom queue. The open-plan kitchen, dining and living area is light, spacious and beautifully presented, with plenty of glazing making the most of the natural light and views towards Mount Te Aroha. A heat pump keeps things comfortable year-round, while the boxed ceiling adds just the right amount of detail. Slide open the doors from the dining area and you’re straight out to the courtyard – perfect for summer entertaining, morning coffees or an evening wine. There are even raised planter boxes for those who fancy themselves as a bit of a gardener, without having to sacrifice every weekend to it. Internal-access double garaging, an EV charger, integrated laundry, full insulation and double glazing take care of all the practical stuff too. And location-wise, it’s a cracker. Sitting alongside the Railway Reserve and handy to the Hauraki Rail Trail, CBD, Domain, schools and walking tracks, you can leave the car at home more often than not. With the owner relocating to be closer to family, this beautifully cared-for home is ready for just its second owner. Downsizing, upsizing, investing or simply looking for something modern, immaculate and easy – this one ticks a lot of boxes. Low maintenance, great location and not a paintbrush required. What’s not to like? Get in touch today to come and take a look.

Don't let the cute exterior fool you – this little number has more up its sleeve than you might expect! With three generously sized bedrooms, there's room for everyone, while the combined kitchen and dining area keeps everyday living simple and practical. A separate laundry comes with a bonus you don't often find – a second shower! Because sometimes one just isn't enough. Step outside and things get even more interesting. Sitting on a generous 761sqm section, there's plenty of room for backyard cricket, a veggie patch, four-legged family members or whatever else takes your fancy. Add a single carport and loads of off-street parking, and even the extra vehicles have somewhere to call home. Whether you're taking your first step onto the property ladder, adding to your investment portfolio or simply looking for a home with a little more breathing room, this one's worth a look. Cute as a button, practical as they come, and with a section that's anything but small!
