Where else can you secure a three-bedroom family home with a garage and lawn, plus a separate three-bedroom flat with the potential to contribute approximately $550 a week towards your mortgage?

This legal Home & Income offers space for a large family, independence for extended family, or the option to live in one home and rent out the other. With three bedrooms on each level, two complete kitchens and separate living areas, you have the flexibility to make it work for your household.

Set on 809sqm (more or less) of freehold land, this solid 1960s weatherboard property brings together comfortable family living and an income opportunity.

Upstairs, polished timber floors add warmth and character, while a modern kitchen with stone benchtops and a refreshed bathroom make everyday living easy. Three bedrooms provide room for the family, and the open-plan living area connects to a sunny conservatory and covered deck for entertaining or relaxing. Elevated views towards the Waitakere Ranges complete the picture.

Downstairs, the fully self-contained three-bedroom flat has its own renovated kitchen with stone benchtops, renovated tiled bathroom and separate living area. New double-glazed sliders open directly to the garden, giving this home its own connection to the outdoors.

For families bringing generations together, this is a chance to stay close while enjoying your own kitchens, living spaces and privacy. Parents, adult children or extended family can have their own space, with everyone together when it matters.

For buyers looking for help with the mortgage, the legal Home & Income status is a real drawcard. Live upstairs and rent downstairs, with a rental appraisal of $520-$570 per week, or choose the arrangement that suits you best. Separate power and water meters add practicality.

For those considering renting both, the combined rental appraisal is $1,050-$1,150 per week. Upstairs is appraised at $530-$580 per week.

A freestanding garage, off-street parking, established gardens and lawn round out the offering. Konini Primary and Glen Eden Intermediate are within easy reach, along with Glen Eden's shops, train station and transport connections. Local favourite Sozo Coffee House is also within walking distance.

The owners are offering one final opportunity to purchase before withdrawing the property and returning it to the rental market.

Six bedrooms, two complete living environments and one legal Home & Income. Bring the family, do the sums and come and see how this property could work for you.
