80 Consols Street, Waihi

As someone who genuinely loves what I do, I've walked through hundreds of homes over the years - but none have captured me quite like this majestic lady.

You have to imagine what it would mean to gently bring her back to life. There is truly no other property like it. Originally a single-storey bungalow, she was transformed by a local couple who renovated and extended the home while living onsite with their three young children. I managed to track down the previous owner, and she laughed as she recalled waking up some mornings to find the front of the house gone - or the bathroom floor missing - yet they took it all in good stead and carried on. That dedication and vision are woven into the very fabric of this home. What immediately struck me were the exquisite leadlight doors and windows - all still intact and absolutely stunning.

They look as though they were installed yesterday. There are intimate, thoughtful touches throughout that speak to a different era of craftsmanship. Offering five bedrooms, two lounges, two bathrooms, a child's playhouse, and a substantial garage/workshop - all set on 1,618 sqm - this is a rare and remarkable opportunity.

You need to see what I see. Come and view, and decide for yourself whether you are the one to restore her.
