A Classic City Rise Opportunity

Loved and held by the same owner for an incredible 37 years, 38 Duncan Street now presents a rare opportunity for buyers with vision and imagination.

Privately tucked away at the rear of a generous 663sqm (+/-) section, this 1915 home enjoys elevated city views, excellent sunshine and off-street parking. While comfortable and full of character, there's no denying this is a property that is ready for its next chapter and offers significant scope for upgrading and adding value.

Inside, the home offers three to four genuine double bedrooms and a practical layout waiting to be refreshed and enhanced. The separate lounge or fourth bedroom captures both sunshine and lovely city and harbour views, while the open plan kitchen and dining area, complete with a laundry cupboard, provides a solid foundation for future improvements.

The bathroom includes a shower over bath, basin and toilet and downstairs basement storage adds further practicality.

This is a property for those who can see beyond today and recognise the opportunity ahead. Renovate, modernise, refresh and reap the rewards. The location alone makes the effort worthwhile.

Positioned close to an excellent selection of schools including St Joseph's School Dunedin, Trinity Catholic College, Arthur Street School, Otago Boys' High School and Otago Girls' High School, plus the bonus of being able to walk into town from here.

Bring your paintbrush, your ideas and your vision - this is a genuine opportunity to roll up your sleeves and unlock the potential in a sought-after City Rise location.

Properties with this much potential and this much upside are becoming increasingly hard to find
