Auckland family beats developers and investors to secure “dream home”
An Auckland family has sparred off against investors and developers and won to secure a Remuera home.
The property at 1 Benson Road sold on auction for $2,751,000, which is close to $300,000 above its reserve price,
174 bids were made in just under an hour, and sellers are “thrilled”.
Bayleys real estate agent Lorraine Young said the home had attracted “huge interest” from a variety of buyers.
“There was great enquiry from developers, investors and families, all seeing the add-value potential of a great site, location and ability to do-up or develop,” she said.
“The property is also positioned in Double Grammar Zone – making it highly desirable for families with school-aged children,” she adds.
