If you’ve been holding out for a proper backyard – the kind where you can actually kick a ball, plant fruit trees or map out your next project – this Colne Street address delivers in spades.

Set on a Private, established 633m² section in Oamaru, this cute two-bedroom home offers a discerning purchaser the scope to add their own mark with love, care and tools.

The home itself is compact at 70m², yet thoughtfully arranged. A separate living room offers a cosy retreat, positioned away from the kitchen/dining zone, or it could be used as a third bedroom. The kitchen and dining room is generous for the footprint, with good bench space, plenty of cabinetry and room for a table. Sliding doors extend the dining area out to a covered deck, creating an easy indoor-outdoor connection that makes everyday living feel more open and relaxed.

Both bedrooms are well-sized with a garden outlook and natural light filtering in.

The centrally located bathroom includes shower over the bath, vanity and toilet, while a separate laundry adds practicality many smaller homes go without. Storage in the hallway keeps the layout efficient and functional.

Step outside and the scale shifts entirely. The flat, Private section is framed by established hedging, mature trees and layered plantings that give the garden depth and privacy. There’s a standalone garage, garden shed and off-street parking.

Whether you’re considering a future extension, a renovation, additional landscaping or simply enjoying the breathing room, the flexibility here is undeniable.

Colne Street sits within easy reach of Oamaru’s town centre, schools and supermarkets, while the historic Victorian precinct and harbour are only a short drive away. Oamaru’s blend of heritage architecture, coastal walks and creative energy makes it one of Otago’s most distinctive towns.
