73B Grosvenor Street, Kensington, Dunedin, Otago

Nestled above Kensington, offering views of the Oval, harbour and the city lights at night, sits this two-story home. Perfect as a low-maintenance, “lock-and-leave” city base, or for those who want the benefit of apartment living with your own outside space or continue the strong rental history this property has received. Previously rented for $570pw, with the potential for $600pw. The upper floor boasts two bedrooms, a modern family bathroom and separate toilet, with an open-plan kitchen and living room. Sliding doors from the lounge open onto a sunny deck, while the back door from the kitchen leads through to an enclosed courtyard and a second deck with frameless glass balustrades. This property also benefits from great sun due to its elevated aspect - a must for Dunedin’s chilly winters! Two bedrooms and a second toilet grace the ground floor, with an internal-access single garage that features a workshop area and large storage that expands under the stairs. Fully-fenced, with a prolific grape vine and vegetable beds, but minimal overall maintenance; this property is on a cross-lease title, which means lower rates. In easy walking distance to the shops and amenities of South Dunedin, with a bus stop at the end of the street so you can pop into the city centre and not worry about parking.
