Action required - the family want this home gone!
Quirky, unique, and like stepping into a piece of art. Yes, it needs work - but the reward will be extraordinary. If you've ever dreamed of owning something truly special, something with soul, history, and serious design pedigree - this is your moment. Wellington architect Ian Athfield, a true legend of New Zealand design, was best man at the wedding of the home's very first owner. As his gift, he created the plans for this remarkable, character-filled property on the fringe of Whangarei - and what a gift it was. Built in the 1970s, this home showcases Athfield's unmistakable style: a playful arrangement of spaces, dramatic rooflines, and a strong architectural presence that feels both artistic and timeless. Solid plaster construction, beautiful slate and timber flooring, and rich textures throughout speak to an era of craftsmanship that’s increasingly hard to find. Decades later, it remains a striking testament to Athfield's creativity - a home that doesn’t follow trends but proudly stands apart. It's not perfect. It needs vision, effort, and a bit of love. But for the buyer who understands what this is, the upside is immense. This is not a cookie-cutter house. This is a statement. A story. A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to restore and enhance a true architectural gem.

Sometimes, the house you've been looking for comes along at exactly the right time - and this could be that moment! Tucked away in one of Te Kamo's best little streets, this hidden gem sits privately at the end of a cul-de-sac on a rear site. Fully fenced and surrounded by lush greenery, it offers the perfect combination of privacy, space and family-friendly living. There's something here for everyone. The kids have room to play, the dog can run free, and the adults have plenty of space to relax and entertain. With three-car undercover parking leading directly into the home, plus a garage underneath and an extra storage shed, Dad's toys, tools and treasures are well catered for! And Mum? She can claim the conservatory as her own little haven - the perfect spot to enjoy a quiet cuppa, curl up with a book or simply sit back after a busy day and watch the world go by. Step outside onto the large entertaining deck, where summer barbecues, family gatherings and lazy afternoons await. Beyond the deck is a lush backdrop alive with greenery and birdlife, creating a wonderfully peaceful atmosphere that feels a world away from the everyday. This is where the magic happens - country-style living without the country commute!

So, where do you find a property that gives you privacy, space, parking, family living and a leafy retreat - all in one of Te Kamo's best locations? Perhaps you've just found it.

Getting into the property market doesn't have to mean starting big. Sometimes, you just need to find the right place to start. Priced at $350,000, 10 William Jones Drive offers an affordable opportunity for first-home buyers, investors, or anyone looking for a property with good bones and plenty of potential. This native timber home offers three bedrooms, a practical layout, a good-sized section and plenty of off-street parking. It is a DIY project, so there is work to be done, but the fundamentals are here and there's plenty of scope to roll up your sleeves, add value and make it your own. For investors, the potential is particularly interesting. There is potential for a rental return of around $550 per week. That equates to approximately $28,600 per annum, which would represent a gross rental yield of around 8.17% based on the $350,000 asking price. The location adds to the appeal, with local shops, public transport and everyday amenities close by - making this a practical area for both homeowners and tenants. Our out-of-town vendor is ready to move on, so this property is priced to sell. If you're looking for a project, a first step into the market, or an opportunity to add value - this could be worth a closer look. Viewing is by appointment, so get in touch today to arrange your time.
