A HOME WITH MORE TO OFFER!
Set in a quiet part of Holmes Hill, this well-maintained three-bedroom home has plenty to offer, along with scope to add your own touches over time.
The home enjoys good afternoon sun, particularly in the rear living area, while the kitchen and dining spaces work well together for everyday living. All three bedrooms are a good size and include built-in wardrobes, providing plenty of practical storage.
Comfort is well covered with double glazing, quality carpets, two heat pumps and a small in-built fire on wetback. The bathroom features a wet-floor shower, with a separate toilet for added convenience. There's also the potential to create a second bathroom, with a second toilet already installed - providing a great head start for anyone looking to further enhance the home.
The 898sqm section is another real highlight, with established trees, shrubs and raised garden beds creating a beautifully sheltered and private setting.
Downstairs, the tandem-style garage provides useful vehicle space, along with a workshop, laundry and plenty of additional storage.
A comfortable home in a handy Holmes Hill location, with good bones and room to take it further.

How we worked this out
| Council valuation, Aug 2023 | $450,000 |
|---|---|
| Market movement in Waitaki District since the council valuation | +6.0% |
| Apartments and houses in Waitaki District | −0.2% |
| How Oamaru sells against council values | +1.3% |
| Homes of this age in Oamaru | −0.9% |
| Homes in this price range | −0.1% |

| Our estimate | $483,000 |
We start from the council's rating valuation, move it by how sales in the area have moved since against their own council values, then by how properties like this one, nearby sales and its own last sale have done against the same arithmetic. Each step is an average of real sales. Tested every month against sales we had not seen: half land within about 6% of our estimate, and about 8 in 10 within the range. This is an automated estimate, not a registered valuation.

Owner names and the parties to each instrument are not published on this page. Order the record of title to see them.
Another agency selling this property too, or is it for rent? Import that listing and it shows beside this one.
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.
Reading the council's maps…
What could you build here?
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.
