Seeking something brand new in a peaceful, natural setting, yet just minutes from the city, university, and hospital? The newly completed Sanctuary in the City development presents a rare opportunity to enjoy contemporary townhouse living in a tranquil riverside environment.

Stage one comprises just eight thoughtfully designed townhouse-style homes, this boutique enclave strikes an effortless balance between serenity, convenience, and quality. Each residence offers spacious, light-filled interiors with two generous double bedrooms, both featuring their own ensuite bathrooms and large wardrobes. The open-plan kitchen, living, and dining space forms a welcoming heart of the home, finished with a calming contemporary palette, quality window treatments, and a stylish kitchen featuring composite stone benchtops and excellent storage. A guest powder room on the lower level adds everyday practicality, while a wide stairwell with feature timber side slats introduces architectural interest and a relaxed coastal feel. Keyless entry enhances modern convenience, with optional Mackenzie & Willis add on furniture packages available. Sunny front decks extend the living outdoors, capturing outlooks across the Leith River or the north-west facing woodland that frames the site.

Positioned on the river’s edge, these homes offer a genuine sense of serenity. Unwind at the end of the day on your sun-soaked deck, accompanied by the gentle sound of flowing water, an enviable contrast to the convenience of having Otago University, Dunedin Hospital, and the city centre all within easy walking distance or a short drive, with nearby bus routes enhancing accessibility.

These homes will appeal to a wide range of buyers, including parents seeking a high-quality, low-maintenance investment for university-bound children, professionals looking for an executive first home, those wanting a lock-and-leave lifestyle, or downsizers seeking a warm, modern residence within an established community.

Built with longevity in mind, each home is backed by a 10-year Master Build Guarantee. Six of the eight residences include off-street parking, all are freehold titles, and there are no body corporate fees. This is a rare opportunity to secure a brand-new riverside home where lifestyle, location, and quality come together seamlessly.

Townhouses range in size from 63sqm to 100sqm.
