I would have loved to have these for our medieval style wedding - but I didn’t even know these existed!

Pickup in Green Bay (opposite Green Bay High School) preferred though it is possible to send if buyer pays p&p, or if you are outside Auckland then maybe a friend of yours in Auckland can do the pickup.

Looking to buy this spring!!!

Saneel from Mount Roskill

Auction room can be intimidating especially when you want to turn that house into your own home.
It’s a different ball game compared to negotiation or asking price offers as you may get the opportunity to challenge the offered price!

One of the key aspects on the oneroof article:

Auction room can be intimidating especially when you want to turn that house into your own home.
It’s a different ball game compared to negotiation or asking price offers as you may get the opportunity to challenge the offered price!

One of the key aspects on the oneroof article:

>>> www.oneroof.co.nz... <<<

“Crunch the numbers on the property and work out your budget ahead of time”

With the property market recovering from the lowest peak, it could mean that negotiation or asking price offers would be a thing of the past.

If you think, you would view the dream property first and then talk about finance application, you could end up rushing through with the process and causing undue stress!

Plan ahead, if you are looking to buy or moving to bigger place or move to another location.

Give yourself the opportunity to walk into the next auction and bid with confidence!

Feel free to reach out if you need assistance with pre-approval!

Its showing its age but is in relatively good condition, but having raised a family its got a bit of wear and tear. It came with a ‘3M’ hydrophobic water shield coating. Which has helped the longevity of the piece. The pull out bed mechanism is still fully functional and runs smoothly. The fabric is what you would expect for a sofa of this age. Its a little worn from use. It has a few little rips from getting caught on things and just general wear - tried to get all of these in the photos. As it folds out there is a little staining on the light coloured ‘dunlop’ fabric from spills between the cushions over the years. But not too bad all in all. The main fault is one broken plastic ‘flatcap’ that holds one of the timber slats (they can be picked up online). It never really cause us too much of a problem so we left it.

Dimensions.
The sofa is:
196 cm wide - measured from the outside of the arms
81 cm deep - from back to the front of the arm. Seating cushions protrude a little beyond this.
63cm from the ground to the top of the armrests

The bed it is:
156cm wide
205cm long

If you want any more specific dimension just ask in the questions. It is HEAVY, its a solid bed pick up is from Avondale, Auckland.
