About the Room:
A single room is becoming available in a tidy 3-bedroom home on Waimairi Road. This is an excellent location for students – just a 450-metre walk to the University of Canterbury, making it one of the closest rooms available to campus. The current tenant is moving out at the end of September after just over a month, so the room will be ready for a new flatmate.
