About this property

Waitati Retreat - Coastal Calm Overlooking Blueskin Bay

    Escape to the serene village of Waitati and enjoy the best of coastal living. This spacious, 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers a front-row seat to the tides of Blueskin Bay. It’s the perfect base for nature lovers, bird watchers, and those looking to trade city noise for the sound of the ocean and the occasional vintage charm of the passing train.

    Warmth & Comfort: Stay toasty with a roaring woodburner (firewood supplied), a powerful heat pump, and dedicated radiators/fan heaters in every bedroom. The home is fully double-glazed for ultimate peace and quiet.



    The View: Breathtaking, ever-changing views over Blueskin Bay



    Indoor-Outdoor Flow: Open the living room doors to access the private garden.



    Flexible Sleeping: 3 generous bedrooms (two queen beds one single bed) and 2 bathrooms (one being a full ensuite, plus a full family bathroom).



    Important Things to Note



    Accessibility: The house is on a flat section but does contain two internal steps.



    Families: Due to the property being unfenced, we recommend caution and suggest it is not suitable for toddlers.



    Parking: There is plenty of parking, a car is recommended to make the most of the surrounding area and the short drive into Dunedin city.
