It is hard to find a better example of a heritage building in New Zealand.  The Buller County Council chambers, on the main street of Westport, was built in1940 in 'Moderne' style with curved walls and windows.  There are 6 Offices, a large foyer and a large meeting room.  There are 2 toilets and a walk-in lockable safe.  There are 2 carparks at the front and 2 at the rear as well as on-street parking.  Most of the offices have in-built cupboards. It features stunning joinery, brass door handles and large leadlight windows. This building is high off the ground, has a long wheelchair ramp at the rear and a front porch facing the street.  The heating is via a thermostatically controlled diesel burner which heats elements in each room.   The interior and exterior have been recently painted. For the last 10 years this has been used as a Medical Practice and there are sinks in the offices.   The floor is made of one inch thick tongue-and-groove heart Rimu, which is carpeted in all rooms bar one.  If you love heritage buildings this one could be for you.
