Standing proudly above Maitland Street, this enduring double brick home commands attention with its timeless presence and central Dunedin location. Perfect for buyers who value original character, versatile living, and a convenient location, this property invites you to experience the beauty of an era gone by.
Built in the 1920s, the residence retains its period charm while integrating thoughtful modern upgrades. Original stained glass windows have been carefully preserved, with professional double glazing added to most openings to improve warmth and efficiency while honouring the home’s character.
The sun-filled main living room captures generous morning and daytime light, complemented by a second living area, or optional fourth bedroom, on the same level. Centrally positioned, the kitchen provides excellent storage, easy flow to the living spaces, and a door opening directly to the backyard.
Upstairs, the sense of scale continues. The master bedroom enjoys elevated views across the city, harbour and includes a walk-in wardrobe. There is a further large double bedroom and light filled single with direct flow into a lovely sunroom or office which overlooks the backyard. The upstairs bedrooms are serviced by the main bathroom, with a separate shower room positioned downstairs beside the laundry, providing flexibility for families or shared living.
To the rear of the home, a separate matching brick building with two large spaces provides additional options, whether as a studio, workshop, or storage space, offering flexibility for a variety of uses.
Recent upgrades include a new roof installed in 2025 as well as the addition of a large solar panel system, including battery storage, significantly improving energy efficiency and assisting with heating costs. Additional heating includes a heat pump, two wood burners and an HRV system. Gas hot water is in place, and the fully fenced section is accompanied by established gardens and multiple veggie patches.
With its size, layout, and proximity to town, the home also presents attractively for those considering investment potential. Character homes of this calibre, so close to the city, are increasingly sought after. Viewing is essential to fully appreciate all this property has to offer!
