Looking for a home that offers room for everyone, flexibility for the future, and something a little different from the ordinary.
Set on a freehold title of approximately 632square metres in sought after Forest Lake, this substantial family home delivers space, character and versatility in equal measure.
Designed for family living, the home offers four genuine bedrooms, two bathrooms, and multiple living zones that allow everyone to spread out and enjoy their own space. The open-plan kitchen, dining and family area forms the heart of the home, while a separate lounge provides the perfect retreat for movie nights, quiet relaxation or entertaining guests. Adding another dimension to the property is the large consented detached room complete with its own ensuite. Whether you need space for extended family, teenagers seeking independence, guests, a work-from-home setup, hobbies, or simply extra room to grow, this versatile addition offers options rarely found in homes of this calibre.
Built in the 1970s, the home showcases the warmth and personality of the era with striking timber interiors, raked ceilings and an abundance of natural light. Sun pours through the living spaces throughout the day, creating an inviting atmosphere that feels both spacious and welcoming. Comfort is assured year-round with heat pumps, while a separate laundry adds further convenience for busy family life. Step outside to a cosy covered deck, a lovely spot for morning coffee, a quiet evening drink or keeping an eye on the children as they play. The fully fenced section provides peace of mind for families and pets, while the freehold site offers space to enjoy and make your own.
Positioned within one of Hamilton’s most established family neighbourhoods, you are close to Minogue Park, local cafes, recreation facilities, and schooling, with easy access to both the CBD and The Base for commuting, shopping, and dining. Homes that combine size, character and genuine versatility are increasingly difficult to find. With four bedrooms, two bathrooms and the bonus of a consented detached room with ensuite, this is a property that stands apart from the crowd. With size, versatility, and a rare, consented bonus room, this is a property that offers possibilities for today and flexibility for the years ahead. Space, flexibility, and a rare bonus room combine to create an opportunity not to be missed.

Owned by the same family for the past 23 years, this well maintained home offers an excellent opportunity for first home buyers, families and investors seeking space, convenience and future potential.

Built by Gerrand Homes in their classic style, the home features a sun filled step-down lounge with high stud ceiling that creates an immediate sense of space. Two ranch sliders provide easy access outdoors, while the adjoining kitchen and dining area provides a practical and welcoming space for everyday living.

The home offers three generous double bedrooms, all with wardrobes, a family bathroom complete with both bath and shower, a separate toilet and the added convenience of a separate laundry.

Over the years the property has been thoughtfully updated and refreshed. The kitchen was replaced in 2016, while both the interior and exterior have been repainted in recent years, allowing buyers to simply move in and enjoy.

Outside is where this property continues to impress. The freehold section provides room for children and pets to play, while a large double garage with workshop space, double carport and additional off-street parking offer flexibility for vehicles, hobbies, and storage. A new Coloursteel garage roof was installed in 2021, and the much-loved orange tree, currently loaded with fruit, is sure to be appreciated by the next owners.

There is also scope to further enhance the outdoor areas, creating your own private haven for entertaining, gardening or simply relaxing outdoors.

Positioned for convenience, you are close to local schools and parks, zoned for Te Rapa School, and enjoy easy access to the Te Rapa Expressway, river walks and The Base shopping centre.

After more than two decades of ownership, the time has come for a new family to create their own memories here.

Well cared for, well positioned and packed with potential – this is an opportunity not to be overlooked.
