56A Manor Place, Central City, Dunedin

Bargain hunters dream

Roll up your sleeves and unlock serious value. This early-century character home is being sold ‘as is, where is' — and with no sugar-coating, it's clear: this one needs work. But for the right buyer, it's a golden opportunity to snap up a property in a prime city-fringe location at what could be a very sharp price.

Set on an elevated, sunny site just minutes from the city centre, this grand old two-storey home is ripe for restoration. Whether you're looking to restore a grand family home or consent into two flats (subject to council requirements), the potential is massive — and the price could reflect the work required.

Downstairs is a stripped-back shell with two front rooms, a space for a bathroom, and a large open-plan area - a blank canvas waiting for your vision. Period details remain: sash windows, vintage fireplaces, and generous ceiling heights that speak to its heritage.

Upstairs offers two bedrooms, a wood-paneled bathroom, open-plan kitchen/dining and a sunroom — all begging for a fresh touch. A set of double-glazed windows (purchased for the renovation) is included, adding even more value for the savvy buyer.

If you've got the skills, vision or connections — and you're looking for a project with serious upside — this could be the bargain you've been waiting for.
Don't miss your chance to restore, renovate, and profit.

To be auctioned at Fable Hotel 310 Princes St at 11am on Friday 27 June 2025 (unless sold prior).
