22 Michaels Avenue

About this property

You know that feeling when you drive up a long wide driveway and think, “There must be something special at the end of this”? That's exactly the experience here. A generous, private approach leads to a modest three-bedroom weatherboard home that's been a faithful rental for years, sitting quietly on a generous, elevated 1166sqm (more or less) freehold site. The land is predominantly flat and usable, with a glorious outlook over rooftops towards Rangitoto Isalnd, and plenty of room to imagine more. If you're a builder or land-focused investor, this is where it gets exciting. The width of the driveway, the contour, the sun and the setting all lend themselves to a special new family home, or an equally ambitious multi-home enclave (subject to council approval). The location adds to the appeal: a well-regarded Ellerslie Avenue, walking distance to Michaels Ave Reserve, with easy access to SH1, Ellerslie Train Station and the CBD. Whether you landbank, renovate or create multiple dwellings, this is big, beautiful land with serious upside. Our offshore vendor is so realistic we couldn't believe it. If ever a seller was going to meet the market, this is the one.
