55 Tarata Road, Inglewood, New Plymouth, Taranaki

Restore, Renovate and Reap the rewards. When it comes to renovation lifestyle properties, they don't come any better than this - a thoroughly charming 1905 character home located close to Inglewood township and every amenity you could wish for. Only 2 minutes to Inglewood and less than 15 minutes to New Plymouth. It is steeped in history and has massive potential.

Inside, this spacious home plays host to five bedrooms, two bathrooms and a farm-style kitchen with separate generous living area. Add to this a rumpus room and large garaging with workshop and all the lists are ticked. Large windows bathe the house in natural light; a log burner and insulation provides year-round comfort, and timber floors and high ornate ceilings add to the charm.

This home is in definite need of some TLC and is being sold as is. Although liveable, the new owners may well decide to spend some time freshening up and renovating this home back to its former glory, invariably enhancing the value of their investment in the process.

Outside, the 5 acres approx. also needs tidying but is filled with birdsong and mature trees. There is a section of bush and wetlands with the remainder in rolling grazable paddocks. The land around the house is flat and there is potential to develop with the addition of more garaging, a second dwelling or bring back to life the orchard and chicken run.

Inglewood township is superb, with the supermarket, parks, and quality schools, not to mention all the other village shops ensuring everything you could ever need is within close proximity. Affordable properties in this incredibly convenient pocket of town are always in demand, and prospective purchasers are urged to act quickly. This one wont last long.
