If you've been dreaming of a classic Kiwi bach where weekends slow down, kids roam free, and the soundtrack is birdsong - this is it.

Located in Little Akaloa, just over an hour from Christchurch, this much-loved two-bedroom bach offers a rare opportunity to secure a genuine Banks Peninsula getaway - the kind of place families return to year after year.
Set on a generous 1012sqm freehold section, the property is surrounded by established gardens, mature trees, and rolling hillside views. A gentle creek winds through the grounds, while the constant birdsong - including bellbirds - creates a peaceful, unmistakably rural coastal atmosphere from the moment you arrive.

Inside, the bach is warm and welcoming, with open-plan living and dining centred around a closed wood fire with wetback, complemented by a heat pump for year-round comfort. This is a home made for simple pleasures - shared meals, board games at the table, and cosy evenings after a day outdoors.

Two bedrooms and a combined bathroom complete the main dwelling, while a separate studio provides valuable extra space.
Outdoor living is where this property truly shines. There's room for backyard cricket, picnics by the creek, and long summer evenings spent outside. A deck/patio, carport, garden shed, tank water supply, and septic system all support easy, low-maintenance holiday living.
Just a short distance away, Little Akaloa's safe sandy beach is ideal for swimming, paddling, and relaxed family days by the water, while the nearby boat launching slip makes fishing and boating easily accessible.

Whether you're searching for your first bach, a weekend escape close to Christchurch, or a place to create lifelong family memories, this Little Akaloa property captures everything people love about the traditional Kiwi bach - and so rarely found today.
