First Home Buyer with Added Investment Opportunity
Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this well-presented double-storey home offers three double bedrooms, an updated bathroom and separate toilet, fresh paint throughout, and light-filled open plan living on a manageable 505sqm section. The home is positioned for all-day sun, with a fully fenced yard that provides a safe space for children and pets, while the elevated outlook from the upper level offers attractive views towards Mt Hutt.
A standout feature is the fully consented, self-contained 24sqm unit, recently upgraded with new vinyl flooring, fresh carpet, and repainting throughout. Currently tenanted, it provides an immediate income stream and excellent investment appeal, with potential for long-term or seasonal rental returns during Methven's busy ski season. Ideal for investors, extended family accommodation, or a lock-and-leave lifestyle, this versatile property is completed by a low-maintenance section and convenient drive-on access.
The council's capital value of 15 Colcord Place is $550,000 as at 1 Jul 2024: land $185,000 and improvements $365,000.

Building consents
We hold no building consents for this property yet. The council may hold records we have not seen.
If it is yours, claiming it puts the council record, the title and what it costs you to hold in one place — and lets you put your lending, insurance and power out to people who compete for them.
We check your name against the registered owner on the title before a claim is accepted. Nothing on this page changes for anyone else, and no provider is contacted until you ask.
Zoning and hazards
What the council's published maps say about this land. A map is a model of a storm, not a record of one: a LIM or a flood report says more.
We do not hold flood maps for Ashburton District yet.
Contaminated land
Councils keep registers of land used for activities on the Hazardous Activities and Industries List (HAIL) — service stations, timber treatment, orchards, landfills. A listing records how land was used, not that it is contaminated: most sites have never been tested.
Environment Canterbury's Listed Land Use Register can be searched property by property on its own site, but is not published as data.

See whether a granny flat fits beside the house: the Building Act exemption, the national granny flat rules and the zone’s own. Then ask builders to price the shape you pick.
