**AUCTION BROUGHT FORWARD TO: Wednesday 3 June 2020 at 5.30pm**
If you are looking for something contemporary and well-designed that won't cost the earth then take a look at this iconic container house.
From each level of these three stacked 30m2 refrigerated aluminium containers you can enjoy the views of horses and wild flowers on the overlooking hills. Owhiro Bay is a location growing in popularity for its community life and rural feel but still only 12 minutes from the city. All three levels are homely, comfortable and offer all the modern comforts of a contemporary house with many more cool features conventional houses don't offer. A favourite room for many is the media room which is a cosy retreat at the end of the day. Set the electric blinds to enjoy a movie - or just watch TV in style. Or use the courtyard area and ample decking areas to enjoy an awesome private party with friends.
Situated close to the city and the South Coast the house feels great to be in, in fact it just makes you smile. With a triple garage and an extensive chattel list included this is an easy 'move in and enjoy' option, keep it running as an Airbnb, or rent it out long term.
A rental assessment of $750 per week empty or keep it furnished and include the utilities to maximise rental potential. It has been used as a popular and profitable Airbnb with a proven and consistent rental history, with many enquiries still coming in at this time. Or use it as a family home with the Owhiro Bay school only a short walk and the playing fields just across the road.
A 3D virtual tour is available via the link on this page. Articles on the construction and design can be viewed at www.containerhousenz.com. The business has its own page at www.wellingtoncontainerhouse.co.nz
