Deadline Sale closing 2pm Tuesday, 15th September 2026 (no prior offers)
There are sections you can understand from a set of plans — and then there are those you really need to stand on to appreciate.
Set on approximately half an acre in one of Waikouaiti’s much-loved streets, 25 Geelong Street is one of those properties. Elevated and surrounded by established trees and birdlife, with wonderful outlooks, all-day sun and views stretching out towards the sea.
With a generous building platform already offering plenty to work with, this is an exciting opportunity to create something that responds to the land rather than simply sitting on it.
The Section
The elevation is very much part of the appeal here. It provides the opportunity to design a home that makes the most of the outlook, changing light and both sunrise and sunset.
For those wanting to think a little differently, the site could lend itself beautifully to a split-level style of living, allowing a future home to sit naturally within the contour of the land. There is still scope to create a lovely flat outdoor living area on one side, while benefiting from the elevation and outlook on the other — giving you the opportunity to enjoy the best of both.
There is excellent access onto the site, giving you room to consider different building positions and layouts. Mature trees around the property also give the section a lovely sense of establishment that can take years to create on a completely bare site.
A container positioned near the boundary is also to remain on site, providing useful storage while plans are being developed or work gets underway.
A LIM report has recently been obtained and is available to interested buyers, providing valuable information about the property, including services and the site itself. I also have some previous concept plans available — not as a prescription for what should be built, but simply to help you visualise some of the possibilities.
Build now, take your time developing your plans, or secure the land and land-bank it for the future.
Location
Geelong Street has long been one of Waikouaiti’s popular residential streets, and it is easy to understand why.
From here you are close to the Waikouaiti Lagoon, local cafés, shops and everyday amenities, while the beaches at Waikouaiti and nearby Karitane are only a short drive away.
Waikouaiti itself continues to grow while retaining the strong community feel that makes living here so enjoyable. There are local clubs, sporting facilities, the swimming pool, golf course, museum, community activities, local businesses and tradespeople — and Karitane is just down the road, with the two communities increasingly connected.
And when you want the city, Dunedin is approximately 30 minutes away.

Book a Time to Come and Experience What This Site Really Has to Offer
This is one of those properties that really needs to be experienced in person to appreciate what the site has to offer.
Viewings are by appointment, and because I live locally, it’s easy to arrange a time that suits. I’ll meet you on site, walk the section with you, talk through the information available and help you get a real feel for the land and its possibilities.
With the property being offered by Deadline Sale, I’ll also be making myself available for viewings across both Saturday and Sunday in the lead-up to the deadline, so please get in touch and book a time to come and take it all in for yourself.
