Positioned on a secluded 1,724sqm rear site, 15A Clyde Road presents a significant development opportunity following the recent rezoning to Medium Density Residential (MRZ). Located within close proximity to the University of Canterbury, the property sits in an area experiencing strong and ongoing demand for additional student accommodation and higher-density housing.
The site benefits from outlook across the Kirkwood School Fields, providing open space views that enhance the long-term appeal of any future development.
Currently improved with a substantial five-bedroom, four-bathroom dwelling, the property includes multiple living areas, upstairs lounge, a conservatory, formal dining, kitchen with casual dining, and a top-floor rumpus room. Outdoor features include a swimming pool with pool room and extensive outdoor entertaining areas. A double garage with an additional room above provides further utility.
While the existing home offers holding income or accommodation potential, the primary value lies in the landholding and MRZ zoning, creating scope for multi-unit residential development or purpose built student accommodation (subject to council approval).
Opportunities like this are rare, a large MRZ-zoned site in a sought-after student rental location.
