Positioned out over the water and nestled on the edge of Hobson Bay are these historic Auckland boatsheds on Ngapipi Road. Built onwards from the 1930's, these truly are iconic gems within the city landscape, granted protection as a cultural heritage site in 2008. There are only 17 boatsheds in total and having been tightly held by a who's who of Auckland families, they rarely come to market. Now is your chance to secure your very own.
The stunning white-washed interior with pitched gable roof is complete with skylights that flood the space with natural light. A kitchenette, bathroom and generously sized roof-hung heaters provide the necessary home comforts, along with a fully automated seaward side roller door and an extra heavy duty, clear screen to lower during inclement weather. While a floor has been built into boatshed #20, the slipway remains underneath if you should choose to make use of it in the future.
Definitely not your ordinary purchase; this is just that little bit special. A picturesque spot to while away the hours, an artist's retreat, an uber-cool city pad for use as a daytime bach, or somewhere to gather family and friends to watch the big game. If you're looking for a unique place for your Christmas lunch this year, with spectacular grandstand views of the harbour and city, you won't want to miss out on this opportunity. Give me a call to arrange your private viewing.
Please note: A right to occupy the boatshed is provided by a coastal permit via resource consent. The existing deck structure is temporary and will be removed prior to settlement.
