Description
Enjoy the calm of cul-de-sac living at 37 Sheridan Crescent, where convenience, connection and a highly sought-after
location come together. With motivated vendors ready to see a result, this is an opportunity that demands attention. Thoughtfully modernised and beautifully presented, the home centres around an open-plan layout designed for effortless everyday living. The spacious kitchen is perfect for entertaining, with the dining area flowing seamlessly to multiple outdoor spaces, making hosting easy and inviting. Inside, you’ll find three generous bedrooms, a modern kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms, and excellent heating with three heat pumps and a wood-burning fire. The additional space off the garage adds valuable flexibility, ideal for a home office, hobby room or extra storage – a feature many buyers are actively searching for. Step outside and you’ll discover a true standout, the outdoor fire area, framed by railway sleepers and buxus hedging, creating the perfect setting for evenings with family and friends. The
location only adds to the appeal. With a reserve directly across the road, Leamington Domain playground just a short stroll away, and Cambridge town within easy walking distance, this is a neighbourhood that continues to attract strong buyer interest. Properties like this, in a
location like this, are always in demand – and with clear motivation to sell, now is the time to act.

Next steps for moving to New Zealand
Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.
Understand the buying rules
Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.
Sort out your visa
Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.
Plan your finances
Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.
Know your tax obligations
US citizens are taxed on worldwide income. You'll need to file US taxes from abroad and may owe local taxes too.
Set up healthcare
Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.
Run the full checklist
Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
