A couple who spent $400,000 restoring a category one historic inner-city home have found themselves left with part of the property landlocked by a lack of access.
The couple say they are blocked by a covenant and Dunedin City Council rules from developing or selling the land.
Eve and John Jackson restored the Basil Hooper-designed Ritchie House in Heriot Row, before selling it to St Hilda's Collegiate School last year.
Now, they want to fell a protected tree on what was part of the garden, a subdivided section they say St Hilda's did not want.
Removing the tree would create a building area for a prospective buyer where it did not affect surrounding houses.
Despite a ''long-standing attachment'' to the site, they have attracted opposition from neighbours and other opponents who made submissions at a resource consent hearing yesterday.
''Catch 22, it's called,'' Mrs Jackson said.
The scheduled maple tree is more than 80 - and perhaps 100 - years old.
It is listed as significant on the council's schedule of trees, which means it cannot be removed without resource consent.
Recent public notification of the consent application attracted 11 submissions, 10 of them opposing the tree's removal.

Protected tree at the root of property dilemma
Glen Ridge may have a new plan in place for caring for its public shade trees by this fall.
The borough's Shade Tree Commission is finishing up a revised master plan for the planting and care of trees around Glen Ridge.
This winter hasn't caused too many problems for Glen Ridge's shade trees, said Deputy Administrator Mike Zichelli. Instead, the big problem continues to be age Glen Ridge has a lot of very old trees and very young trees, with not much in between, he said. To add to that, some of the more recent saplings are having trouble thriving, as the older trees start to decline.
Tim DeLorm, the chair of the Shade Tree Commission, said that the master plan should be ready before the end of September.
The goal is for the master plan to include details on what types of trees should be planted around town, and in what locations including high-traffic "gateway" intersections like the Ridgewood/Bloomfield Avenue intersection, Zichelli said.
However, he said, there is still a problem with landscapers building up "mulch volcanoes:" piling mulch around the base of the tree, which ends up weakening the trunk and the roots.
Some of Glen Ridge's younger trees fell victim to drought, disease and conditions such as maple blight in 2011.
On average, Glen Ridge has to take out about 40 large trees a year. "It's not a number we'd like to see, but it's a reality," Zichelli said.
The number is consistent with what it has been over the last five years, except during major storms and weather events.
The shade tree canopy has also taken a heavy hit from major storms over the last three years, including Hurricanes Sandy and Irene and the October 2011 snowstorm.

With summer temperatures luring us outdoors, scientists with the Weed Science Society of America (WSSA) say its a great time for refresher course on poison oak, poison ivy and poison sumac. All three thrive during summer months and are known to trigger highly irritating skin rashes that can last for many days.
When you look at the thousands of people exposed each year and at the misery a rash can produce, poison oak, poison ivy and poison sumac certainly rank among the most notorious weeds in the nation, says Lee Van Wychen, Ph.D., WSSA science policy director.
All three belong to the Toxicodendron genus and produce irritating urushiol oils. When urushiol comes in contact with the skin of sensitive individuals, itching and watery blisters will follow.
Poison oak and poison ivy in particular are common fixtures in many outdoor landscapes, often tucked among other native vegetation and growing as either a low shrub or trailing vine. Both produce small, whitish green flowers in the spring, followed by small berries in the summer. Birds enjoy the seeds and help to spread the weeds into new areas.
Poison sumac is rarer, and tends to be found primarily in wetlands. This characteristic is one of several differences among the three weed species and where they are found.
Poison oak grows as a low shrub in eastern and southern states and in tall clumps or long vines on the Pacific Coast. Fuzzy green leaves grow in clusters of three. It may have yellow or green flowers and clusters of green-yellow or white berries.
Poison ivy is found nationwide, with the exception of Alaska, Hawaii and some portions of the western coastline. Each leaf includes three glossy leaflets that vary in color (and sometimes shape) throughout the year red in spring, green in summer and yellow, orange or red in the fall. It can grow as a shrub or as hairy, ropelike vines sometimes seen growing up the sides of trees.
Poison sumac grows as a woody shrub or small tree primarily in the eastern half of the U.S. Leaves feature multiple pairs of leaflets that have a smooth, velvet-like texture. Flowers and fruit are similar to those produced by poison oak or poison ivy, but hang in loose clusters.
Misinformation about poison oak, poison ivy and poison sumac abounds, making it important to separate fact from fiction.

Windows 8's tile interface is fine on mobile devices, but Microsoft may have just figured out it's terrible for traditional computers.
If recently published reports are to be believed, Microsoft is finally realizing something I've been saying ever since Windows 8 first reared its ugly head: the so-called Modern (formerly Metro) tile interface may work fine on smartphones and tablets, but it basically throws traditional computers under the bus. The Windows 8 start screen is just plain silly on traditional computers.
The situation gets worse the larger the screen of the device in question. Ever look at Windows 8 on a 27-inch monitor? What about on a pair of big-screen monitors? Despite features that let you organize the tiles, the bottom line is that the bigger the screen, the more Windows 8 turns it into a jumbled, confusing mess.
Word is that next year's Windows will present a traditional, Windows 7-style desktop interface on traditional desktops and laptops, while still showing those tiles on smaller, touch-screen devices.
Thank heavens!
Horrendous failure?
On the one hand, this could be seen as a horrendous admission of failure for Microsoft. It bet the company on Windows 8's radical new interface, hiding the traditional desktop and start menu behind a wall of cryptic touch-centric tiles that may have seemed "modern" but never made sense for traditional computing tasks. Making computer users pretend they're working on a tablet raised the ire of rabid commentators and scared off traditional consumers ever since.
Competitors like Apple and Google, meanwhile, offer separate operating systems and interfaces for computers vs. phones and tablets. They, like almost everyone outside of Redmond, seemed to understand that while smartphones and tablets are technically computers, people use them in very different ways for very different tasks. If I'm sitting at my desk working, I have completely different needs than when I'm checking my Facebook feed on my phone or watching a video on my tablet.
While Apple's Mac OS X and iOS are getting more similar all the time (as are Google's Android and Chrome), they still look and feel very different from each other. Which is a good thing.
Promising sign of humility?
