Hard Work’s Done - Finish It Your Way

This character home is halfway through a thoughtful transformation, and the toughest jobs are already complete. Re-piled, re-plumbed, re-roofed and modernised where it matters, it’s ready for someone with vision to finish it off in style.

Behind its classic façade lies a three-bedroom layout filled with warmth, light and that unmistakable Bluff Hill character. Polished native timber floors, original joinery and generous proportions give the home its soul, while upgrades like new plumbing, replaced waste water system, new electrical circuit board, gas connection with infinity hot water, bring peace of mind.

The kitchen is a blank canvas to design your dream workspace. It’s functional for now, with plenty of light and storage, but there’s room to make it shine. The bathroom has been fully renovated with fresh fittings, a modern shower and quality finishes.

Outside, the groundwork has already been done. The roof, spouting and foundations are all new, the house has been lifted and re-piled, and a water filter has been installed on the main connection. The stand-alone garage has also had its roof replaced, and there’s an attached rumpus or storage room too.

To finish the project, all that’s really left are the cosmetic touches: installing a new kitchen, tidying and painting the timber windows and exterior doors, and a few other finishing jobs to bring it fully into its next chapter.

The property sits among established homes in one of Napier’s most desirable pockets. From here, you’re close to the CBD, Marine Parade, Ahuriri and local cafés, yet tucked away enough to enjoy the peace of this elevated neighbourhood. For renovators, first-home buyers with ambition, or anyone who recognises the value of strong bones and expensive work already done, this is the perfect opportunity.
