Sitting in the heart of Riverton's main road is this iconic building hailing from the 1860s. Originally the Shamrock Hotel with a public house downstairs and ballroom and dancehall upstairs, the building has retained much of its character whilst being meticulously and lovingly upgraded and maintained throughout the years.
Highly ornamental and imaginative in design, the approx. 370m2; building is currently showcased as boutique accommodation with eight bedrooms and six bathrooms in total. The ground floor has been converted into two apartments - both with ensuites and one with a kitchen and a semi-private courtyard. The upper level consists of five bedrooms, two of which have ensuites, plus a large kitchen and dining area, an adjoining lounge with a fireplace that flows onto a north-facing deck with stunning, uninterrupted views of both the Aparima River estuary and the Takitimu Mountains.
The property is no longer operating as a business and is ready for its new owner to move in and make it their own.
The property sits on an approx. 1012m2; section, with a beautifully established backyard featuring mature gardens, a large covered courtyard and outdoor fireplace, all capturing the views out towards the estuary.
The purchase also includes the two adjoining sections at 113 and 113B Bath Road, adding further land to this offering.
The seaside town of Riverton, fondly named the "Riviera of the South", is a must-see on the Southern Scenic Route and a fantastic place for a family holiday or a real Southern seaside experience. While the current owner has followed their vision in the accommodation sector, this amazing property lends itself to many different potential uses, including a private residence, accommodation, or other lifestyle and business opportunities.
This property has been declared not earthquake-prone following an assessment by the Southland District Council.
