390 Aberdeen Road Gisborne, Gisborne District

If space and flexibility are what you need, this one delivers both in a big way.

Positioned on Aberdeen Road, directly opposite the Botanical Gardens, this substantial 390sqm split-level home offers a scale and versatility that is increasingly difficult to find so close to the city.

For large families, blended households or multi-generational living, the layout really comes into its own. Multiple living areas allow everyone to spread out, with natural separation between different parts of the home and plenty of room to come together when you want to.

Downstairs adds another dimension altogether. With its own external access, living area, bedroom and bathroom, this part of the home can be separated from the main household, creating exciting possibilities for extended family, independent teenagers, guests or potential short-term accommodation such as Airbnb.

There's plenty here to enjoy as it stands, but equally, plenty of scope to add your own touches over time. Modernise, reconfigure or enhance things at your own pace, with the sheer size of the home giving you an enormous amount to work with.

Generous off-street parking is another real asset, with secure access down one side of the home providing plenty of room for trailers, caravans and the extra toys. An additional shed takes care of the bigger gear, while the impressive amount of internal storage throughout the home means there's genuinely a place for everything.

Whether you need room for one big family, two generations under one roof, or want to explore the income potential the layout could provide, there is serious scope here.

Bring the family, bring the ideas and make it your own.
