Jo Haywood Reporter from Homed

In the past year, four Grand Designs NZ homes have come onto the market, but not all of them have sold. Now one owner has spoken out about how … View moreYou'd think seeing your home in a starring role on TV shows like Grand Designs NZ would help when the time comes to sell, right? Not necessarily.

Single King Trundler set - with linen

Chrissie from Somerfield

I have a king single trundler bed set for $500 for sale. It’s a good price as it’s near new condition (has had very little use) and comes with some linen.

Single king sized trundler bedset with second unit wheeled underneath base unit for storage.

It’s a good price as it’s near new condition (has had very little use) and comes with some linen.

Single king sized trundler bedset with second unit wheeled underneath base unit for storage. Upgraded mattresses to Sealy Posture Premier spinecare with plush layer.

Selling due to lack of use - comes complete with 1x king single bed sheets + double F1 duvet cover (note cover only - no inner) and pillow case and 1x trundler single bed sheets.

Photo is of the king size single and frame with F1 duvet and pillow covers.

UPDATE: just added additional photos to show the beds and mattresses a bit better along with the linen that comes with the beds (I forgot to say above, that they also come with two single mattress protectors and a single electric blanket as well as the duvet cover, single bed sheets and single king sheets mentioned above). All linen is practically brand new.

Negotiable

Do not miss these incredible films!

Christmas Lights

Cathy from Bromley

I just want to say a huge thank you to everybody who decorates their houses with lights. We have just been out driving around looking at some of the gorgeous displays. No matter what age you are the delight is still there. Seeing the younger kids out and their faces absolutely beaming is priceless.
