Cottage Charm

She's been standing quietly in Tapanui for well over a century, watching the seasons roll by and collecting stories in her walls. Affectionately known as May Young, this charming cottage dates back to the 1800s-a cottage with history and character.

'May Young' has already begun her journey into the modern world. She's been rewired, fitted with two heat pumps to keep her comfortable year-round, and the heart of her home-the central lounge and an adjoining room currently used as a bedroom-has been thoughtfully restored. A woodburner makes this a lovely cosy spot on a cool evening.

At her front, she holds two bedrooms still waiting for their glow-up-spaces for you to shape, reline, and decorate as you see fit. Her kitchen is perfectly workable, her bathroom is functional with a Tevo heater included, and she offers a separate laundry with storage to keep things practical. Outside, a standalone garage adds extra convenience.

But May's charm doesn't stop at her doorstep. She sits proudly on 1055m² of land, complete with a small paddock area-ripe with potential. Whether you dream of picturesque gardens, an additional dwelling, or a generous shed, she's ready to grow with you.

May Young isn't finished-she's simply waiting for the right person to continue her story. If you've ever wanted to be the caretaker of a home with soul, history, and future promise, she might just be calling your name.

This home is would make the perfect little Airbnb, a tranquil artists retreat, an ideal base for motorhome travellers - so many options to continue the life of this cottage.
