Positioned on a generous corner site in one of Waikouaiti most favourable streets.
71 Thomas Street offers a genuine opportunity to secure a slice of coastal living. Enjoyed as a holiday home, this classic Kiwi bach has been a place for relaxed summers, beach days, and time spent with family, and is now being offered to the market due to a change in circumstances.
Interior
The home is comfortable and welcoming, with recent improvements enhancing its liveability. Some rewiring has been completed, new flooring installed, and the spaces made warm and cosy to enjoy straight away. The layout includes three bedrooms, along with a combined bathroom and laundry, providing a simple and practical base. While there is still work to be done, the property is being sold as is, where is, giving the next owner the freedom to update or enhance at their own pace.
Exterior
Set on an approximately 1,012sqm corner section, the outdoor space is level, easy-care, and well suited to relaxed coastal living. There’s ample room for outdoor entertaining, boats, and future ideas, supported by garaging, a carport, and additional off-street parking — all practical features for a seaside lifestyle.
Features
A Healthy Homes Certificate is in place, offering flexibility for buyers considering rental options. The corner-site positioning and zoning also present longer-term potential, including subdivision possibilities (subject to council consent). Whether enjoyed as a holiday base, held as an investment, or gradually improved over time, this property provides options that are becoming increasingly hard to find at this level.
Location
Waikouaiti is a tightly held coastal village known for its strong community and relaxed pace. With the beach, lagoon, and golf course nearby, outdoor activities are part of everyday life, while local amenities and schooling add to the village appeal — all within easy reach of Dunedin.
Offered as is, where is, 71 Thomas Street presents an affordable entry into coastal Waikouaiti. A well-used and well-enjoyed bach with recent upgrades, future potential, and room to add value, this is an opportunity for buyers looking to secure their place by the sea.
