5 Falkland Street, Maori Hill, Dunedin, Otago

This Mason & Wales designed home, built in 1935, has been tastefully modernized while retaining character and charm. Leadlight windows, plaster ceilings and wooden paneling in the entrance preserve the traditional elegance of this home.

The spacious foyer welcomes you into the heart of the house, and introduces you to the formal lounge and gracious dining room. A high spec architecturally designed kitchen renovation was completed in 2023. The kitchen includes a log burner and living area, polished Rimu floors and doors opening into the front and back gardens.

A charming staircase leads upstairs to three generous bedrooms and a beautiful quiet study, or a smaller fourth bedroom. This provides ample room for family or guests.

This home combines the best of heritage and comforts of modern living. A sunny private courtyard leads out to established trees, a near level back yard and the productive kitchen garden with vegetable beds and a large glasshouse.

Heating is provided by a wood burner, two heat pumps and an open fire.

The fully fenced section is safe for pets and children. The large single garage is wired for electric car charging.

Situated in a prestigious suburb on a quiet street, close to the city, hospital, university and many of Dunedin's finest schools. It is the best of both worlds.
