Cute Ngaio cottage is crying out to be renovated
Whoever buys 44 Tarikaka Rd had better like a challenge
The semi-derelict Ngaio house, which has been owned by the same people for more than 30 years, is clearly ripe for renovation. It’s a classic three-bedroom “doer-upper” on an elevated 615 square-metre section.
The property, which has an RV of $670,000, goes to auction on September 25, 2020.
