Discover a home with personality, privacy, and a lifestyle that feels worlds away from the city yet sits just 20 minutes from Dunedin. Unit 4 at 68 Orokonui Road is a one‑of‑a‑kind 1970s open‑plan unit that blends character, comfort, and clever use of space, now enhanced by a newly fenced section ideal for children and pets. The property sits within a well‑managed enclave of similar homes, supported by reasonable body corporate fees that help keep the grounds tidy and the community running smoothly.
This sun‑soaked unit offers an inviting open plan loft‑style feel, with a generous open living area that adapts effortlessly to your needs.

A new roof and thoughtful upgrades throughout mean the hard work is already done.
The combined bathroom/laundry is modern and practical, while the central wood burner keeps the entire home warm through winter. Bifold doors open to a private, easy‑care courtyard that captures all‑day sun forming your own sheltered spot for morning coffee, evening drinks, or weekend gatherings. One separate bedroom and a bed in the open plan area with a walled off area that could be a walk-in wardrobe, office, or extra storage room.
An additional feature is the self‑contained caravan with its own deck, offering flexible extra accommodation for guests, extended family, or potential income as it has in the past. The newly fenced section creates a secure, defined outdoor area for kids and dogs to play freely; easily visible from the kitchen/dining area. There's also a storage shed, and excellent off‑street parking right at your door.
