Description
This exceptional property offers a rare opportunity to secure a high-yield, proven investment with an outstanding 20-year track record.
Perfectly positioned in a highly sought-after location serving both the University of Canterbury and Lincoln University, the property sits on 1,012sqm (more or less) of TC1, freehold, Residential Suburban-zoned land - a solid landholding in a consistently in-demand rental area.
Currently tenanted on a fixed-term lease at $1,400 per week until November 2026 (equating to $72,800 per annum), the property delivers an immediate and reliable income stream from day one.
Investment Highlights
- Proven 20-year track record
- Historically strong tenant retention, with most groups staying for two years
- Seven double bedrooms, all lockable
- Two bathrooms plus a separate laundry
- Consented log burner and heat pump for year-round comfort
- Majority double glazed
- New roof (approx. 6 years ago)
- New hot water cylinder and water heating unit
- Alarm system installed
- Generous off-street parking for 7+ cars and outdoor space
- Close to key amenities and main bus routes
The dwelling offers practical, comfortable accommodation tailored perfectly to the student market. The kitchen is well-appointed with generous bench space and storage, while the bathrooms are modern and functional. Heating options - including the log burner (a consistent favourite with tenants) - ensure warmth through the cooler months. Off-street parking is a significant advantage, as securing it in university-adjacent areas is increasingly difficult, further strengthening tenant demand.
With the current owner exiting the student investment sector, this property offers rare alignment: strong net income, excellent long-term capital growth, and demand driven by two expanding universities.
We invite all offers on or before the deadline date.
