Step back in time with this enchanting seaside cottage, nestled just a stone’s throw from Blockhouse Bay beach, park and reserve. Over 100 years old, the character-filled gem once served as a tiny shop, delighting generations of beachgoers with sweet treats and coastal charm. Cosy and comfortable as is, the home is filled with warmth and whimsy. Tucked into a tranquil setting where birdsong fills the air, a garden studio offers the perfect retreat for artists, writers or hobbyists. A short stroll to Blockhouse Bay’s vibrant village, you’ll find cafés, shops, sought-after schools, scenic bush walks and easy transport to the CBD and New Lynn. While time has taken its toll and maintenance is needed, the potential here is undeniable: restore, refresh or reimagine entirely with a new build (subject to Council Consent). If timeworn treasures speak to you, this character-rich cottage offers a deeply rewarding project. Could this be your weekend retreat, first home or delightful downsizer?
