Set along the picturesque Hatea River as it winds toward the vibrant Town Basin, this unique boatshed and accommodation blends the charm of a bygone era with modern comfort and convenience.

Wake each morning in a tranquil, sun-soaked setting right on the water, step aboard your boat for the day, then return to enjoy an evening drink on the deck as the sun sets over the harbour. If you have been searching for that missing lifestyle element, this could be it.

Bright, airy, and full of character, Shed 6154 forms part of an exclusive collection of approximately 12 boatsheds along Riverside Drive. With its rustic appeal, central location, and stunning riverside outlook, it offers a rare opportunity in an exceptionally tightly held enclave.

The shed includes a 32-foot mooring and generous workshop space, ideal for maintenance, storage, and hands-on projects. Inside, the fully self-contained living quarters feature a kitchenette, bathroom, and open-plan living area. The space is insulated and fitted with a heat pump, ensuring comfort throughout the year.

Services include town water, sewage, power, and broadband connection.

The resource consent allows for up to five nights per week staying on a boat, subject to council requirements for waste disposal and mooring compliance, as well as up to two nights per week in the shed’s bedrooms.

With the lease secured until 2055 and nominal annual fees of just $444, this property presents an outstanding lifestyle opportunity. Whether as a peaceful retreat, a savvy investment, or a true lock-up-and-leave sanctuary, it is as practical as it is special.

Opportunities like this are exceptionally rare. Secure it while you can.
