Harbour living doesn't have to cost the earth. This neat two-bedroom home sits on a sunny 468m² section in sought-after Roseneath, a few minutes' drive from the shops and supermarkets in Port Chalmers.
The house is a compact 70m², with two bedrooms and a separate living area that opens onto a north-facing balcony. That's where you'll end up most of the time. Coffee there in the morning, a drink there in the evening. Two heat pumps, one in the living room and one in the bedroom, keep it warm through a Dunedin winter.
The 'garage' is lined, insulated and currently used as a rumpus room, so it's a lot nicer than most.
If you work in town, the Harbour Cycleway is close by. It's an easy ride along the water to the University and city, about 7 to 8km. For university or hospital staff, that's a commute with a view and no parking to find at the other end.
The railway runs along the harbour and you'll hear the odd train go past. Some people find that's part of the charm.
Sold "as is, where is". There are known consent, compliance and services issues, and the vendor is providing no warranties about any building work. The disclosure pack, including the LIM, is available from the agent. Please read it before you make an offer.
It's a very liveable home today. What happens next is up to you. Live in it as it is or take on the issues and sort them out your way. It suits someone who is happy to do their own due diligence and doesn't need finance.
Deadline Sale closing 12pm Thursday 29th October 2026 (unless sold prior). There is no asking price but FYI the vendor's price expectations are over $400,000.
Contact the agent, Peter Gale, for the Disclosure Pack, LIM and other information. Private inspections are available by appointment.
