Kick-start your property portfolio with this tidy and affordable standalone townhouse built in 2009.

Modern and neutrally decorated, the property features two double bedrooms, a well-appointed bathroom and a light, open-plan kitchen and living area.

The living room opens to a northwest facing patio, capturing all day sun. Easy-care lawns and lush planting give the property a welcoming feel in a private setting.

Double garage with internal access provides convenience and security.

Addington is an increasingly up-and-coming suburb with many new cafes, restaurants and retail establishments having recently opened in the area. The proximity to the city centre and Hagley Park also make this a popular location.

The property is currently leased to Housing New Zealand on a 10-year lease until 2019. This is a great investment opportunity with returns much higher than current bank rates.
