Charming 19th Century Waterfront Cottages

Step back in time with this rare and enchanting opportunity to own two historic cottages on separate titles in the heart of Pahi. Dating back to the early 19th century, these properties are a living testament to New Zealand's early settler days, brimming with charm and character at every turn.

The first cottage, aptly named "The Writer's Retreat," was once home to renowned historian and author Dick Scott. Built entirely from Kauri, exudes another age with its coved ceilings and stunning window seat that invites you to take in the peaceful surroundings. The cozy one-bedroom layout offers a bathroom while the uniquely shaped kitchen, adorned with a freestanding oven, transports you to a simpler time. Outside, a leadlight back door opens onto a wrap-around porch, perfect for imagining the early settlers listening to the birds and the gentle lapping of the tide. The waterfront path leads to a quaint boat shed.

The second home, "The Fisherman's Cottage," mirrors the historical charm of its counterpart. A porch welcomes you into the cosy living area, with an open-plan layout featuring wooden cabinetry and the unique lounged fireplace. One bedroom is downstairs, complete with the exposed backside of the chimney, while two additional large bedrooms are accessed upstairs. The main bedroom offers breathtaking water views, allowing you to wake up to serene coastal scenes. The clawfoot bath in the bathroom adds to the old-world feel, and a separate laundry provides extra storage.

Both cottages offer the rare blend of privacy and coastal access, with paths leading directly to the water, making these homes ideal for those who seek the coastal lifestyle, where swimming, fishing, and nature are right at your doorstep. With freestanding sheds on both properties, and hidden from view by passersby, this is a once-in-a lifetime chance to own a piece of Pahi's rich history.

Deadline Sale Date 2nd of December, unless sold prior.
