Boasting all day sun and unparalleled sea views that never grow old, this picturesque gabled cottage was once the original schoolhouse. Steeped in history, it is said that the original schoolmaster taught pupils in the cottage before the first Wainui school was built. Situated just beyond Wainui and nestled in Anchorage Bay, it is also protected from the southerly winds.

Sympathetically renovated this late 19th Century cottage retains many if it original features. The country style kitchen has been modernised and a new bathroom and WC installed. The kitchen/dining area has windows that open out onto a sheltered patio, ideally positioned for alfresco dining. The Cape Cod style inspired living room, complete with a cosy wood burner, has sash windows that frame the sea views. Three double bedrooms, two up and one down, are decorated with country old world charm and all have picturesque views over Akaroa Harbour.

Outside the 1,303sqm terraced garden affords privacy and tranquillity and has been thoughtfully landscaped with mature trees underplanted with a variety of easy-care shrubs and plants. There is ample off-street parking, a detached single garage and a garden shed.

With the boat ramp and Wainui beach just down the road, this is the perfect spot to spend lazy summer days and make the most of what Akaroa Harbour has to offer.
