作为奥克兰地产行业最有影响力的人物之一,Garth Barfoot正在出售自己居住超50年的住宅。

Garth现年87岁,是一名热爱跑步的老人。一百多年前,他的父亲Val创立了Barfoot & Thompson公司。如今,Garth选择出售自己的四卧滨海住宅。

虽然将住宅交给自家的Barfoot & Thompson代理是一件顺理成章的事情,但令人惊讶的是,哪怕在其漫长的职业生涯中Garth曾卖出过无数房子,这却是他第一次出售自己的家。

 

It’s hard to believe super athlete and real estate mogul Garth Barfoot, 88, has only ever owned one house in his life.

That large Huntly brick family home on a cliff-top in Beach Haven, Auckland was built by Garth and his wife Judy in 1971.

And here’s the thing – they clearly got it right, because they never felt the need to move, despite Garth being in the business of buying and selling houses; a business started by his father 100 years ago.

But now the family home has been listed after 53 years – Garth and Judy finally moved into a Ryman Healthcare apartment at the nearby Bert Sutcliffe Retirement Village last year.

 

In the meantime, the couple has been busy downsizing from the four-bedroom home, which is now ready for another family. And this is no small property – it spreads across 2901m², in two titles – 130 and 134 Island Bay Rd, Beach Haven.
