1/29 Arthur Crescent, Hilltop, Taupo, Waikato

Bigger than most properties of its kind, this warm and inviting unit is perfectly suited to a range of buyers, including retirees looking to downsize and young purchasers looking to establish themselves on the real estate ladder.

Inside, two bedrooms are complemented by a good-sized bathroom and a highly-functional kitchen, while open-plan living areas offer plenty of versatility. Although warm and inviting as-is there's definite scope for the new owners to enhance the decor and add their own sense of style and personality to the property, increasing the overall value in the process.

The compact grounds still hold plenty for those with green thumbs, with the small gardens and lawn area on the property ideally suited to pottering and admiring the radiant colours of blooming roses. The single lock-up garage has a separate room attached that could become a sewing space, workshop or studio.

The location is a popular one, and with good reason. The local supermarket is just a short stroll away, as are green walking parks along with the hair dresseres and local hospital sharing the same neighbourhood.

There's a lot to love here! Families will be drawn to the great location and the proximity to primary, intermediate and high schools, while older purchasers with green thumbs and peaceful living in mind will be attracted to the sun trapped garden and warm homely feeling of the rear section.
