Elevated, sunny and positioned in one of Arrowtown's most sought-after streets, this historic property presents a rare opportunity in an exceptional location.
Dating back to around 1878, the charming cottage sits on a generous 1,012m² (more or less) site, just a short 300m stroll from Arrowtown's main street. Known locally as O'Callaghan's Cottage, the home forms part of Arrowtown's rich heritage and character.
The original cottage offers two spacious bedrooms alongside an open-plan kitchen and dining area. In the late 1970s, a loft bedroom was added above the original stone stable block, creating a distinctive additional space full of charm.
Around 1991, a considered extension linked the two historic stone buildings and introduced a comfortable living room, along with a separate bathroom and toilet. The living space is warm and inviting, featuring both a wood burner and heat pump for year-round comfort. During this time the home was also upgraded with modern wiring, plumbing, ceiling insulation and a new roof.
Set on an elevated, sun-filled site, the property provides exciting possibilities for the future. Whether you choose to enjoy the cottage as it is, undertake further enhancements, or explore architectural options, the setting offers outstanding potential.
This Category 2 listed property is a special piece of Arrowtown's past, with a location that is unbeatable.
