About this property

Charming 1960s Kiwi bach in peaceful Karitane, just 5 mins to beach & harbour.

  • Sunny Coastal Kiwi Bach with Stunning Rural Views.

    Embrace the authentic New Zealand beach lifestyle in this charming 1960s Kiwi bach, perfectly positioned to capture all-day sun and spectacular westward views across rolling farmland to the hills beyond. This peaceful retreat sits on a generous quarter-acre section in a quiet cul-de-sac, offering the perfect balance of privacy and accessibility.

    The Space
    Step into a bright, open-plan living area that forms the heart of this classic beach house. Two cozy bedrooms branch off the main space, while a modern heat pump ensures year-round comfort. The sunroom is a delightful bonus space, seamlessly connecting to a private deck through bi-fold doors – an ideal spot for your morning coffee or evening wine while soaking in the rural vistas.

    The bathroom facilities include a well-appointed shower room with basin and heating, separate laundry facilities, and a discrete toilet. For extra guests or the kids' adventure, there's a classic Kiwi sleepout (the 3rd bedroom) equipped with bunk beds.

    Outdoor Living
    The spacious deck is a true highlight, capturing fantastic sun throughout the day and providing an elevated vantage point for the beautiful pastoral views. The gently sloping, largely lawn section offers plenty of space for children to play and explore safely. There's convenient off-street parking for three vehicles in tandem. Please note that the hot tub is not available.

Very cold, dirty , inadequate shower temperature and hopeless flow volume , bedding completely substandard. Kitchen hadn’t been cleaned with mouldy smelly rubbish from previous occupants still in kitchen rubbish tin, dead flies everywhere and surfaces covered in grime. Although we paid for 2 nights we could only endure 1.
