Orakei is the place to be for climbing the property ladder.

Close to the water, beaches and Mission Bay but at a fraction of the cost. With a CV of $500,000 this fresh, stylishly renovated 2 bedroom home with double garage, is on a gorgeous, sunny north facing corner site and will be exceptional buying. Easily added onto, the deck flows out to the lawn and would be perfect for a couple, young family or even a redevelopment site in the future (see harbour photo from roof).

Built to last, it is heated with a heatpump, well insulated underneath and in the ceiling and has good storage in the basement. This is a duplex, meaning it is connected to one other, but on its own 543sqm freehold title is without the encumberances of a cross-lease.

If you haven't been having any joy getting a great home - within your price range, then view this immediately. Must be sold ASAP.
