5 Buckley Road Epsom, Auckland City

A truly rare offering in one of Auckland's most prestigious suburbs, 5 Buckley Road, Epsom, presents a generous 809sqm freehold site offering exceptional potential. Ideal for renovators, builders, or investors, this classic 1920s character property remains largely in its original condition, providing a genuine renovation or rebuild opportunity in a location where properties rarely come to market.

The property comprises a main two-bedroom home with a separate one-bedroom flat positioned at the rear, creating a classic home-and-income configuration. Each dwelling provides independent living areas, with the rear flat recognised under its own postal address and benefiting from separate access. The property also includes a single garage and ample off-street parking.

This is not a move-in-ready property; it is a true project for those prepared to roll up their sleeves, restore its character, or start again with a new build. Held by the same owner since the 1970s and operated as a private rental for over 24 years, the property is now ready for its next chapter.

Nestled in central Epsom, the home is surrounded by long-held, premium residences and enjoys easy access to Newmarket's shopping and dining precinct, motorway connections, parks, and top schools. Its generous land size and prime location provide exciting potential, whether you choose to renovate, rebuild a future home, or hold the property as a long-term investment.

Auckland Council is currently reviewing planning provisions through Plan Change 120, part of the city's wider housing intensification strategy. While zoning changes are subject to council processes and approvals, this review may create opportunities for long-term landholders, potentially increasing flexibility or value for sites like this.

The property is being sold "as is, where is," making it well suited to buyers who can recognise the potential beyond the walls. Buyers should undertake their own due diligence, including inspections and planning checks, to satisfy themselves regarding the condition and future possibilities of the site.

Opportunities like this in Epsom are increasingly rare - secure your foothold in one of Auckland's most tightly held suburbs.
