Overview

THE JUNCTION

Step into history - Opportunities like this are rare. A true piece of Oamaru’s Victorian heritage, the iconic former hotel known locally as “The Junction” is ready to begin its next chapter with new custodians. Painstakingly restored in recent times, the current owner has breathed new life into this grand old dame. The work has been a labour of dedication and respect - preserving the soul of the building while ensuring it’s ready for the future. Currently operated part time as a boutique Victorian-era homestay, offering high tea and home tours. This remarkable former Oamaru hotel offers scale, character, and atmosphere that simply can’t be replicated. Inside, you’ll find ten individually themed bedrooms, a stunning ballroom, character-filled library, charming music room, formal dining room, cosy snug, and several inviting lounge spaces - plus there is so much more to explore. It’s a place where everyday life feels a little grander, and where you can live out your manor dreams. Positioned prominently and conveniently close to a supermarket and our town amenities, the location balances historic presence with practical living. Whether you’re passionate about heritage, looking for a lifestyle change, or dreaming of continuing the homestay venture, this property offers an extraordinary platform. Set on a large freehold corner site, with off street parking and the various outbuildings completing the dream. The heavy lifting has been done; restoration, revival, and vision. There remains exciting scope to add your own finishing touches and further elevate the tourism experience while making your personal mark on this historic gem. Viewing by appointment.
