PROJECT OVERVIEW
Located on Kaikoura Street in Henderson, these Townhouses are only a short walk or drive to access Great North Road and are walking distance to local schools, shops, cafes, transport and other amenities. It is with no doubt that finding new homes at an affordable price point is only going to get increasingly harder as Auckland City’s population grows.
On the Ground Floor, the kitchen, dining and living areas are open plan. There is a Washer/Dryer Combination conveniently located within the kitchen and a large storage space under the stairs (additional storage space also upstairs). Upstairs is either 1 or 2 full size bedrooms, which include large built-in wardrobes. Outside is a low maintenance private courtyard, which includes a Clothesline, Storage/Bike Shed and power supply.
