Summary:
Welcome to "The Old Datsun," an exceptional four-bedroom house comprised of two distinct two-bedroom houses merged seamlessly to create an expansive and luxurious living space. Named because an old Datsun vehicle sat in the driveway for 20+ years, the new owner has lovingly restored the house to offer an executive-style home with fantastic views of Lake Rotorua.
The Space:
The Old Datsun offers a unique layout, comprising two separate two-bedroom townhouses, each with its own private entrance, driveway, and amenities. These townhouses are connected by a deck but maintain independent living spaces, ensuring privacy and convenience. There is no internal access between the two units, access is via the connecting deck. Each townhouse boasts two spacious King Rooms (totaling four bedrooms) and features a private bathroom, laundry facilities, and a stylish kitchen. The connecting deck features a lockable gate, offering security and separation when the townhouses are booked independently. Each townhouse provides its own gate and entrance, along with a single garage for parking.
Guest Access:
