Overview

Heritage charm, renewed opportunity

With beautiful street appeal and a sense of romance that is hard to replicate, 4 Willowbank is a distinctive heritage home with a story to tell. Built in 1915, this impressive five-bedroom residence combines grand proportions with an intricate mix of Arts and Crafts influences and Victorian detail, set within leafy surrounds in a tranquil, tree-lined cul-de-sac beside the Leith River. The character begins at the street, where curved bay windows, decorative shingled gables and a slate roof give the home a distinctive presence. Inside, a wide entrance, timber wall paneling, sash windows and original fireplaces speak to its heritage, while distinctive fanlights featuring an Art Nouveau tulip motif add another layer of detail. Fresh paint and new carpet provide a welcome lift, while partial rewiring and an upgraded switchboard are among the improvements already undertaken. Five bedrooms offer flexibility for a range of buyers, whether you're looking for a substantial home with room for family and guests or exploring the potential of a property in a sought-after location close to key amenities. Outside, mature greenery creates a peaceful setting, with a wisteria-clad veranda and a west-facing courtyard providing an inviting spot for afternoon sun and outdoor entertaining. Even the single garage has character, with a charming stained-glass window adding an unexpected finishing touch. With picturesque Woodhaugh Gardens nearby and Otago University, Dunedin Hospital, the CBD and the cafés, shops and supermarket of North East Valley all within walking distance, the location adds further appeal. Now offered by auction, the vendors are ready to see a result on auction day. Previous marketing and online price indicators may not reflect their current motivation, so buyers are encouraged to look beyond the numbers and take a closer look at what this distinctive heritage property has to offer.
