Positioned in one of Dunedin’s most sought-after locations, this impressive 1930s character home delivers a rare combination of timeless detail, generous proportions and modern-day lifestyle — all with spectacular city and harbour views as the backdrop.
From the moment you step inside, the character of the era makes its presence felt. Beautiful ornate ceilings, original architectural detailing and the craftsmanship synonymous with homes of this period give the property a warmth and personality that simply can’t be replicated in a modern build.
Just a short stroll from some of the city’s finest schools and moments from Roslyn’s cafés, bars and everyday amenities, the convenience here is hard to beat.
Inside, generous open-plan living creates an effortless hub for family life and entertaining, while the home’s 1940s character features add another layer of charm throughout. The kitchen, dining and living spaces connect beautifully, with large stacker doors opening everything out to a private patio — the perfect spot for summer barbecues, relaxed evenings with friends, or slipping into the spa as the city lights begin to sparkle below.
Accommodation is equally impressive, with three double bedrooms complemented by a fourth double bedroom, substantial games room, home office or library. Framed by incredible city and harbour views, it’s a versatile space that could easily become the room you never want to leave.
And then there’s the garaging.
A generous basement garage provides exceptional space for vehicles, bikes and toys, with plenty of room left over for a workshop and serious storage. For buyers who value proper garaging — something increasingly difficult to find this close to the city — this is a standout feature.
Private, practical and superbly positioned, this is a home where 1940s character meets contemporary living in one of Dunedin’s most desirable settings.
Morning coffee with a view. Summer evenings on the patio. A glass of wine in the spa under the city lights. Ornate ceilings overhead, serious garaging below, and all of Dunedin virtually on your doorstep.
This is one you’ll want to experience in person.
