10 Balfour Road, Te Karaka, Gisborne, 4022, New Zealand

First Home Buyers this could be the place to call your own. If you’ve been trying to secure your own HomeSweetHome within the Gisborne regional ‘cap’, then this could be the one. Definitely get onto it now, and check to see if you would qualify under the “Kainga Ora Scheme”.

Only a quick 30km drive out from Gisborne, and you have discovered Te Karaka [“T.K”] – it’ll be so well worth the easy driving out.

My seller had big plans for this little cutie, but an unexpected change in direction means he is having to pack up the tools. A surprisingly roomy two bedroom, you could easily continue with his vision of creating a super spacious open plan living zone [the timberwork already purchased for the job, will remain]; OR of course, you could reinstate those linings to convert it back to a three. That’s the beauty of homeownership – you have choices. There is a generous garage too, which is also pretty useful for BBQs and get-togethers all year round.

It’s a big fee-simple section at 921m2; Out at T.K you could almost be self-sufficient, with room for the chooks, fruit trees and check out that flourishing vegie garden. Loads of lifestyle amenities, local shop and butcher, sporting and school facilities makes for a more laid back way of country living, you would hardly need to come into town.
