Mature trees, 5 vegetable pods, a fernery featuring an impressive ponga tree, a lawn for kids to play or pitch a tent on, fruiting figs and feijoas, a quaint yet sturdy garden shed, all these, and more, add to the unique appeal of this “2on1”, not over-looked, property, featuring 2 independent living-abode options, thereby offering a myriad of possibilities, whether you’re an investor or home & income occupier.
The current owner bought this cosy 1950s bach-style home in 2002, and built the completely separate & fully Council-Compliant chalet-styled sleep-out in 2017, initially used as an office, but which now also boasts a 5-star rating as an Airbnb, proving extremely popular with tourists & Taupo marathon competitors, alike.
Both ‘dwellings’ are ‘board n batten clad’ and feature generous-sized decks which offer unexpectedly expansive views out towards Lake Taupo, Acacia Bay and beyond, suitable for relaxation, BBQs, and socialising. Glimpses of glistening snow-covered mountains can also be seen during the winter months.
The 2-bedroom residence features a full-sized bath, plus shower-over-bath, along with a 'wood-themed' kitchen, pantry & compact dishwasher, not to forget the lake views!
Both bedrooms have built-in wardrobes, the smaller room with a lovely garden outlook and the large room with views of Lake Taupo and Acacia Bay.
A Kent wood-burner (installed sometime prior to 2002 purchase) along with the under-floor Batts insulation, keeps things appropriately cosy when required.
The separate fully double-insulated Cottage can be quickly warmed with a fan, oil or wall-heater. A Rinnai Gas System (45kg) services both areas independently, for economic hot-water management.
At approximately 24sqm, the Cottage features a generously-sized shower, vanity & toilet, plus a compact kitchenette; the drop-down Queen-Sized Asko bed can fold back into the wall creating a multi-purpose space eg. an extra family room, an office, a teenage retreat, or an elderly relative/s short or long-term accommodation.
The single garage, already extant on the property, when it was purchased in 2002, was virtually ‘renewed’ , back in 2017, at the same time that the Cottage was built.
This unique ‘2on1’ property offers a variety of ‘option combinations’, whether private residential and/or commercial rentals.
