Immaculately maintained by the same family for decades, this beautifully presented home exudes character, comfort, and enduring quality. Positioned on 660sqm (more or less) freehold TC1 section, it represents an outstanding opportunity for upsizing families or savvy investors seeking a well-located rental property with excellent potential to maximise returns.
Inside, the home offers four well-proportioned bedrooms and two modern family bathrooms. The upstairs bathroom features a shower, bath, and separate toilet, while the ground-floor bathroom includes a shower and its own separate toilet. The kitchen has been tastefully modernised over time, benefiting from upgrades such as double ovens and stone benchtops. With double glazing throughout and two heat pumps, the home is well-equipped for the cooler months.
• Four generously sized bedrooms
• Two family bathrooms, each with a separate toilet
• Proximity to the University of Canterbury
• Four-car internal-access garaging
• Scope to add additional bedrooms to maximise rental income

Investors will note the enticing potential to convert the garage or additional living space to further increase accommodation capacity and rental yield. Its location near the University of Canterbury ensures strong demand for student housing.
A separate laundry enhances day-to-day functionality, while the spacious outdoor area offers ample room for entertaining, pets, children, or future improvements - without the burden of being high maintenance.
Our owners have made their instructions clear; this property must be sold on this side of Christmas.
