First-home buyers looking for a place they can afford and add value, will find much to like about this Edgecumbe property.

Puriri Crescent on the northern side of town, is a popular street given its proximity to schools, Riverslea Mall and the river walkway.

At number 50, much of the hard work has already been done and the redecorated three-bedroom Hardipank home has a layout that will work for couples, families
and retirees.

Its owners have enjoyed living there for the past 10 years and have created for
themselves – and prospective buyers – a comfortable home.

The lounge-dining area is open plan with a ranchslider that opens onto a concrete patio. The living  area flows through to a modern kitchen, in which white cabinetry is offset by a black marble-look benchtop and an eye-catching teal splashback. The colour palette in the living areas is neutral with grey walls, dark carpet and woodgrain vinyl flooring.

There is a separate laundry and a family-friendly bathroom that includes both a shower and bath.

The 800-square-metre section provides plenty of room for children and pets. There’s a double garage with lots of parking outside, and plenty of scope for further development with fruit trees and gardens.

This is a home in which savvy buyers can easily add value with minimal outlay, and in doing so, create themselves a fantastic family home or push themselves another rung up the property ladder.
