A picture-perfect cottage on one of Auckland's leading streets is for sale for less than $300,000.
Some homes in the Freemans Bay area sell for close to $2 million, so the two-bedroom character home at 19 Costley St is a steal.
But there's a catch.
The sunny home featuring open-plan living, off-street parking, rumpus and separate entrance is yours but the tiny 177sqm parcel of land is not.
It is leasehold land and for the time being will cost $30,000 a year, or around $600 a week. And the lease is about to be reviewed.
