Back to Listing ResultsFirst home with income
The ultimate affordable first home in central Hataitai with views. The main house consists of 4 bedrooms (3 doubles and a single), a large living room and separate kitchen (which is functional, but could do with a refresh) and a renovated new spacious bathroom. The bonus here is that there is a recently renovated one bedroom downstairs flat which rents for $445 per week, which conservatively would cover a mortgage of $350,000. Add value with landscaping and some cosmetic renovations.
The upper-level flat features three generous double bedrooms and a single bedroom, a spacious separate living room filled with natural light and glimpses of the sea, a modern kitchen, and a family bathroom. Character features, high stud ceilings, quality carpet, and a heat pump combine to create a warm and welcoming home.
Recently renovated, the lower-level flat offers a generous double bedroom, modern open-plan kitchen and living, a stylish bathroom with laundry facilities, and easy access to the rear garden. Heat pumps in both the lounge and bedroom provide year-round comfort, keeping the home warm in winter and cool in summer.
Offering immediate income, flexible living options, and long-term potential in a sought-after location, this is a smart investment for owner-occupiers and investors alike.
