Iconic Retreat or Commercial Opportunity?
The ultimate artist's retreat or romantic hideaway, this one bedroom cottage sits on the edge of a private lake with a deck cantilevered over the water. Magical views from both the bedroom and living room are a constant source of inspiration. Great as a short-term rental, there is also potential to put in more cottages around the lake edge. There is an incredible variety of native birds (kereru, piwakawaka and swallows); the lake is full of wild swans and diving ducks. Beautiful tui and bellbirds feed from the flax right outside the kitchen window, and weka rummage around the garden. French doors open onto the deck from both rooms. Currently 'off the grid' but with good cellphone coverage, the cottage has gas hot water, a bank of marine batteries for power, as well as solar power with inverter. Recently neighbours brought mains power down Virgin Flat Road to the front gate of the property so there is an opportunity to connect if that is desirable. . Cosy in winter with pot belly stove and outdoor bath, and glorious in summer. Row your dinghy across the lake or down to the dam. This is a place to unwind and feel rejuvenated. The 2.39 ha has further potential as the property had prior conditional consent for additional units. Be warned, inspecting this property will take your breath away !

Get into lifestyle living while you can! Properties on this road are often sort after, as it is in a popular semi-rural location. Sitting on a fantastic 3.260ha mature lifestyle block close to town and the Buller River, this property certainly deserves a closer look. The 1910s was an era when homes with good bones were built and this old farmhouse is no exception. Its solid foundations and roof present great potential for restoration and creating a wonderful family home. Four bedrooms, open plan kitchen & dining, large separate lounge, multi-fuel burner with wetback. Large old shed which is in need for repair or demolishing. Located only ten minutes from the town centre, schools, hospital, and recreational venues. For anyone with the vision to restore this home beyond its former glory, this would be a great project. This property ticks so many boxes and is a must see!

Additional buildings include two bay pole shed that is high enough for mobile campervan plus a two-bay skyline garage. The landscaped grounds include attractive pond with abundance of water lilies and a few ducks. The location is that good that the current owners are in the process of subdividing off a small section to build again for themselves. A place to enjoy only 2km from Westport. Has to impress, call for inspection. Very realistic, looking for offers over $850,000
