71 Ross Street Onerahi, Whangarei District

Sitting proudly in an elevated spot with a sunny outlook to the park, this tidy three-bedroom home is vacant and ready for its next chapter. It's ideal for first-home buyers, small families, or anyone looking to move in without the stress of renovations.

Step inside and you'll find:

• Three bedrooms, including a master tucked privately away from the main living area - perfectly placed beside a nursery or young child's room
• A new kitchen and fresh interior paint
• Updated bathroom and flooring
• Open-plan living, dining, and kitchen that flows out to the sunny new deck - ideal for entertaining or keeping an eye on the kids while they play in the fully fenced yard

One of the reasons the current owners were originally drawn to this home is its standalone, freehold position. With no shared driveways or cross-lease to worry about, it offers the peace of mind and independence that so many buyers are looking for. Plus, the location couldn't be more convenient: supermarket, school, park, takeaways, bar, dairy, liquor store and Hammer Hardware all just a stroll away. The friendly neighbours, many of whom own their homes and look out for each other, make this a neighbourhood you'll feel proud to be part of.

One special detail that captures the heart of this home? A handwritten note from the original owner dating back to 1985, listing the section price, build cost, and hopes for the future - a lovely reminder of the solid beginnings this home was built on.

If you're after a well-presented home with great bones, great flow, and a great location - this is it.
