3/57 Grotto Street, Onehunga, Auckland, 1061, New Zealand

Nothing beats a good brick and tile unit and this classic 1970s example has been renovated to a high degree allowing you to move in and move on from house hunting.

With a spacious garden, this end unit sits on a tree-lined street less than a five minute walk to Te Papapa train station. Stunningly presented, this first time buyer cutie offers double glazing and is set discreetly back from the road. A west-facing and private deck across the front of the property provides a sweet al fresco entertaining area. Both bedrooms are doubles and storage is found throughout plus there’s covered parking in a carport adjacent to the gate.

The local buses goes straight into downtown Auckland and the location is also handy for access to the motorway network and the Onehunga village shops and cafes. This is a great chance to buy an attractive property in a convenient spot at a reasonable level.
