43 Butler Street, Opawa, Christchurch City, Canterbury, 8023, New Zealand

This two-bedroom townhouse provides an awesome opportunity for the savvy buyer aiming to get onto the property ladder or for those making a change for good in their life. While it may be a little dated and tired, those are simply cosmetic updates you can chip away at as your budget allows.

Meantime, the gold standard features that make this beauty a worthy investment are numerous. Highlights, such as the north facing site that allows all day sun and light into kitchen, living and master bedroom; direct street access (no shared, common area); well established garden giving privacy as well as pleasure; a robust 1980’s build with great bones; loads of living space at 131sqm (approx) and perhaps best of all – the awesome location!

The townhouse offers a very roomy living/dining area with bay window to maximise that sunshine and then just a step to the galley style kitchen complete with induction cooktop and lots of clever storage. If you enjoy a morning cuppa in the sun no matter what season, you will LOVE the conservatory porch off the kitchen. A solar tube brings welcome daylight into the hallway that leads through to both bedrooms, the spacious bathroom, then onto the second WC, and lastly into the internal access garage with partitioned laundry and storage space. So many options to add value.

Outside the townhouse has a beautifully established, wraparound garden, complete with trailer access. All this is nestled on a quiet cul-de-sac just a short stroll to Hansen Park or along the leafy Heathcote pathway. The Rudolph Steiner School is but a 12-minute walk plus Opawa School, Hillview Christian School and St Peters Schools are all very handy.
