13 Karaka Street

Charming Character. Space, Flexibility and a Backyard Made for Cricket.

Behind its square-fronted workers' cottage façade, this early-century home has evolved beautifully over time. Thoughtfully renovated and extended, it now stands as a distinctive two-storey residence offering four bedrooms, two bathrooms and a layout that adapts easily to modern family life. What sets this home apart is the sheer space and the variety of living zones. There are multiple rooms and breakout areas, giving families the ability to spread out, come together, work from home or create dedicated play spaces. A games room for the kids, a separate office positioned above the workshop, and generous storage throughout mean there is a place for everything. The brand new kitchen anchors the home with contemporary style, while character features throughout honour its heritage. There is even a tucked-away "Harry Potter" door upstairs that children will adore. Outside, the section stretches from Karaka Street through to Puriri Street, with vehicle access from Karaka Street and pedestrian access from Puriri Street. The backyard is large enough for cricket, trampolines and long summer afternoons under the shade of established Oak trees.
Garaging and workspace options are exceptional. Alongside a separate double garage, the former internal access garage has been transformed into a substantial workshop. It offers flexibility for hobbies, storage or future reconfiguration back to garaging if desired.
Quirky, unique and full of personality, yet practical and updated where it counts, this is a home that delivers character without compromising on modern comfort. For families wanting space, flexibility and something a little different, this could be the one.
