Charming Character Cottage

Charming Character Cottage

For those seeking the comfort and charm of a gentler time, this unpretentious and historic two bedroom cottage is sure to delight the most ardent kiwi bach enthusiast. Originally two army cottages, it was extended by renowned New Zealand architect John Scott in the 1970s giving it a distinctly Kiwi flavour. Scott is widely regarded for letting the materials speak for themselves and here the Matai weatherboards, floorboards and exposed ceilings speak loudly of an era when the New Zealand bach was a simple and functional abode, exquisitely proportioned for the quintessential summer holiday. Perfectly positioned in one of the most sought after streets in Taupo with a north easterly aspect that catches both morning and afternoon sun. The charming upper level feature a cosy open plan living and dining area and a small but functional and original kitchen beautifully capturing the lake and mountain views. Downstairs boasts two comfortable double bedrooms, the master with easy access to a private and sunny garden perfect for those summer evenings after a day spent on the lake just minutes away. There is also a family bathroom and utility room on this level. Set on a very sheltered and private section, the house has retained all of its original features. The section is large enough to park the boat and campervan but still be easy care. There is a freestanding single garage with room to store all of those summer and winter essentials. If the heritage of a home is important to you, this property, with its distinctive features, great character and a striking and special story, and which has stood the test of time, is waiting for those seeking their own slice of Taupo and New Zealand architectural history. ...
