7/24 Whitmore Street, Edgeware, Christchurch City, Canterbury

Three bedrooms. Two car garaging. $500,000.

That’s not a typo.

Finding a townhouse near the central city is easy. Finding one with a proper double internal access garage? That’s where the list gets short.

Park two cars. Store the bikes. Hide the Christmas decorations. Or finally set up that home gym you keep talking about. This garage earns its keep.

Inside, the layout is practical and unfussy. Open plan living with good natural light. A balcony that gives you breathing room. Three genuine bedrooms, including one on the ground floor, which works well for flatmates, guests, or a home office.

Step outside and you’re on the edge of everything.

Friday night at the Richmond Club. A breezy walk along the Avon. Pomeroy’s just over the bridge. The central city within easy reach.

For first home buyers, it’s a foot in the door without squeezing into a shoebox. For investors, it’s a configuration tenants actually want. For anyone wanting a low maintenance town base, it’s practical and well positioned.

The owners are realistic and ready to meet the market. At $500,000, this one doesn’t need spin. It just needs someone to claim it.
