If homes could talk, I reckon this one would have some stories to tell.
It would tell you about kids racing out the back door to the playhouse, family dinners around the table, friends dropping in for a cuppa and winter nights when the fire was so warmly that nobody wanted to leave.
Now, it's ready for you to create the next chapter.
The blue front door offers a glimpse of what's waiting inside... a home full of warmth, character and thoughtful updates. It's a home that's had many of the big jobs taken care of. A brand-new kitchen has transformed the heart of the home, while the stylish new bathroom, updated wiring, new plumbing, fresh paint, new carpet and gas hot water mean you can move in knowing so much of the hard work is already behind you.
The open plan living makes everyday life easy, while 3 bedrooms, a separate study and a sleepout give you the flexibility that every family seems to need. Whether it's working from home, giving the teenagers their own space or finally having that hobby room you've always wanted, there's room to make it work.
As we are in the depth of winter, you'll soon appreciate just how comfortable this home is. The wood burner throws out incredible heat, with the heat transfer system helping spread that warmth throughout the home for those chilly Otago days, then when summer rolls back around, the heat pump offers the convenience of keeping things cool and comfortable.
Outside, there's plenty of room to kick a ball, grow a garden, entertain friends or simply let the kids' imaginations run wild in the playhouse that will stay for the next lucky owners.
Homes with this much warmth, flexibility and charm don't come along every day. Add in a family-friendly section, single garaging and a location that's just a short stroll from schools and the town centre and you've found a property that's easy to fall in love with.
Just 40mins from Dunedin City, 20 mins to Dunedin International airport, 20 mins to Balclutha & your also at the gateway to Central Otago, making this location hard to beat.
Some homes simply tick the boxes. Others leave you with a feeling that's hard to explain. 23 Dryden Street is one of those homes. Come and open the blue door... you might just find the one you've been searching for.
