3 Deans Ave, Chch
This 1950s original bach is a slice of kiwiana. Situated in the highly sought after Charteris Bay, this bach has been in the same family for over 30 years. Nestled on the coastline of Lyttelton Harbour this property has nature on its doorstep including wood pigeons and bell-birds, while the picturesque views offer a relaxing and contemplative escape from everyday life.
The section comprises 845sqm and has walking access from Marine Drive at the bottom and from Ngaio Lane at the top where there is vehicle access to a potential building site for a new dwelling if desired.
Known locally as the port hole house, the bach comprises just one large main room with an adjacent kitchenette which includes a sink, hot water cylinder and cooker. The main room opens to a large sunny and sheltered deck with views across the harbour to Quail Island, Lyttelton and the hills beyond. Heated by open fire, the main room doubles as both a bedroom and living room. An iron shed next to the house is connected to the mains water and sewerage and includes a basin, toilet and laundry. A shower, supplied by rainwater, is located in the enclosed storage area underneath the deck. A single garage provides storage for either boats or vehicle.
With a safe swimming beach, boat ramp, sailing club and golf course all found on the doorstep, this is the original kiwi coastal bach within easy commuting distance to Christchurch.
