About this property
Little Greenie, Passive House, Golden Bay.
Little Greenie was the first and only house in NZ to get a 9 out of 10 Hers rating (energy efficiency). The original work of art. A perfect couple's retreat - private, romantic, tranquil with stunning views and a bath under the stars. Golden Bay Hideaway - don't hesitate to look us up, four unique accommodation options. If you want to enjoy the still winter days in Golden Bay, this holiday house catches all the afternoon sun, stores it, and maintains a comfortable temperature. Little Greenie may appear to be just another modern, professionally finished house with stunning views in a beautiful location. Of course everyone will notice some differences sooner or later, but those interested in environmental technology and smart building will find the differences go right down to the foundations.
Little Greenie is designed with four major principles in mind: Energy efficiency, low maintenance/longevity, ease of construction and value for money. It may be modern, but it’s not about frills or fashion; and while it is unashamedly utilitarian, it’s definitely not drab or boring.
**Ideal space for a relaxing getaway, ideal for couples **Modern conveniences and comforts **Close to a range of activities **Craftsman's attention to detail **Extremely energy efficient **Warm all year round
There's no TV or wifi but you'll be entertained all the same:
Beautiful Sunsets - over the water in winter and the mountains in summer. Walk to Wainui Falls -through lush original forest and over a swing bridge. Go swimming or birdwatching - the clear waters around Wainui Bay are ideal Paddleboarding and kitesurfing - awesome spot with northwesterly winds, flat water in the estuary with high tide and waves out in the beach.
