• Spacious, sunny open-plan living

• 2 double bedrooms, fully tiled bathroom
• Generous exclusive-use garden area
• Walking distance to Meadowbank shopping centre & train station
• Broad appeal for first-home buyers, downsizers and investors

If getting onto the Meadowbank property ladder is the goal, this renovated two-bedroom unit deserves a look.

If the bonus of an exclusive-use, recently-landscaped garden appeals, you need to make this a priority.

Set at the upper rear of a smart block of four, the home is private, sunny and surprisingly spacious. The open-plan kitchen, dining and living area is the centre of the home, with a north-west orientation bringing plenty of natural light and new sliding doors opening to a widened deck — a great spot for a morning coffee or evening drink.

The kitchen is modern and well equipped, with an easy flow through to the living area and outdoors. Two generous double bedrooms and a large bathroom, with laundry, complete the accommodation. A new heat pump keeps the apartment comfortable throughout the year.

But the real surprise is outside. The property comes with an exclusive-use fully fenced garden, tastefully landscaped for entertaining, children or pets. It’s a highly-unusual amount of outdoor space for a property of this type, and adds a genuine lifestyle dimension.

A covered carport provides parking.

The location is another strong point, with Meadowbank Shopping Centre and the train station within walking distance, while St Thomas School and Selwyn College zoning adds further appeal.

Whether you're a first-home buyer wanting an affordable foothold in Meadowbank, a downsizer looking for an easy-care home, a professional couple or an investor, this beautifully-presented property with a private garden should exceed expectations.
