This spacious 5 Bedroom hill top property in popular Belleknowes offers views of the Pacific Ocean and Dunedin hilltops while soaking up all day sun. Step through the front door into the spacious entry hallway which is the lifeline of the home, giving you access to four of the bedrooms and living spaces.
