Lock-and-leave, invest or simply enjoy the spacious living in this modern three-bedroom townhouse in the private, secure Rochdale Way enclave.

Roomy, easy-living and affordable homes of this type are hard to find, and this is a beauty, well-located close to Stoke shopping and easy access to Whakatu Drive, Richmond, airport and Nelson CBD.

With 137 square metres on two levels, including a single garage with internal access, there's room to relax and entertain.

Outdoor living is pleasant, too, with a fully fenced garden courtyard.

With three bedrooms upstairs with two bathrooms and generous open plan living down, 16 Rochdale Way truly feels like home. There's hard wearing wool loop pile carpeting throughout.

The master bedroom with high ceilings, ensuite and generous wardrobe has its own balcony, filled with morning sun and giving views to the eastern hills.

Number 16, situated at the private, wider end of the small, cul-de-sac complex with no facing apartments. There's parking outside the garage (with auto door), plus guest parks opposite.

Rusticated cedar weatherboards and a pitched Coloursteel roof with dormer window give these townhouses a stylish appearance.

Inside, a large sun-filled living area gives you, your family and friends plenty of space and heat pumps in living room and master bedroom.

There's excellent indoor-outdoor connection with two sets of glass doors opening to the private tree-planted courtyard.

The Rochdale Way complex offers secure, private living with a friendly neighbourly atmosphere. But there's privacy with each pair of townhouses separated by two single garages, one for each home.

You are close to so many amenities, including Saxton Field, the Aquatic Centre and Stoke school and a minute to safe cycling and walks on the Railway Reserve.

Here's your chance to enjoy the ease of townhouse life, lock and leave - or invest and reap the rewards.
