Description

Welcome to easy, comfortable living in this well-appointed family or first home. The heart of the home is the open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area, a light-filled hub designed for both busy mornings and relaxed entertaining. From here, your eye is drawn to the tranquil, rolling green hills beyond, where sheep and cows graze, offering a rare lifestyle feel so close to the city. This space is further enhanced by a heat pump, fireplace, HRV system and seamless indoor-outdoor flow to a sun-drenched wraparound deck. Two of the three double bedrooms feature built-in wardrobes, while additional hallway storage ensures there’s space for everything the family needs. The family-sized bathroom includes a shower over the bath and a separate toilet for added convenience. An extra seating and BBQ area behind the garage is complemented by the fully fenced backyard, which

features garden beds and two underfloor storage areas. Parking is a breeze with a single garage with remote control, a carport, and additional off-street parking. The home sits on a 690m² section (approx.) with a 96m²

floor area (approx.), freshly repainted exterior, double glazing throughout, and all-day sun with great views. A separate laundry adds further practicality to everyday living. Located down a quiet cul-de-sac, this property is close to Concord School, Green Island amenities, and just 10 minutes from Dunedin CBD and over the hill to the Esplanade. A perfect combination of space, convenience, and lifestyle, ready for you to move in and enjoy. Proudly Marketed by Ricky Jackson – One Agency

NZ has strict biosecurity laws — importing food, plants, or outdoor gear can result in heavy fines. The work-life balance is exceptional, but the job market is small and remote from everywhere.

Next steps for moving to New Zealand

Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.

1

Understand the buying rules

Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.

2

Sort out your visa

Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.

3

Plan your finances

Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.

4

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.

5

Set up healthcare

Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.

6

Run the full checklist

Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
