Tucked into a quiet, established pocket of Roslyn
Tucked into a quiet, established pocket of Roslyn, this 1920s brick bungalow sits just minutes' walk from the village shops, cafés and everyday amenities, a genuinely walkable location that's hard to come by. The current owners have cared for the home for the past 18 years, and that consistency shows throughout.
Inside, the layout offers real flexibility for family living. Three generous bedrooms provide plenty of room to spread out, while a separate dining room and lounge give you distinct spaces for entertaining and everyday life. A sunroom adds a bright, versatile spot to catch the light, whether as a reading nook, home office, or simply somewhere to relax. The kitchen is well-proportioned and functional, ready for whoever moves in next to make it their own.
Comfort through the colder months has clearly been a priority: the home is mostly double glazed, and a ducted heat pump system pairs with a log burner to keep things warm and cosy during the winter months.
Downstairs adds genuine everyday practicality, a utility space, a second bathroom and a single garage for secure parking or extra storage.
Outside, the character continues. Established vege gardens and a glasshouse will appeal to keen gardeners, all set within a compact, low-maintenance section, easy to manage without sacrificing the charm of this property. A standout feature is the separate walk-on access to Leven Street, adding convenience for day-to-day comings and goings.
The owners have already purchased their next home and are genuinely motivated to sell.
Offers will be considered prior to the auction.

Geraldine Hermens
L.J.Hooker
Licensed Real Estate Salesperson (REAA 2008), Member of the REINZ
Thirty-two years in Dunedin real estate, and Geraldine still approaches every property listing the same way she did on day one - with genuine care for the people on the other side of the deal.
Alongside Peter, Amelia and the wider team at The Hermens Group | LJ Hooker Dunedin, she's built a reputation on doing the fundamentals well: clear communication, sharp negotiation, and a calm head when things get stressful, because for most clients, selling their home can be overwhelming. That combination has made her one of the most sought-after advisers in the region, and it shows in the results: multiple years as LJ Hooker Dunedin's No.1 salesperson, and New Zealand's top auction marketer since 2014.
What sets Geraldine apart isn't just the numbers, though there are plenty of those. It's a straightforward belief that real estate should be handled with the same rigour and respect regardless of the property's size or price point - and a team around her that shares it.
