182 Aramoana Road, Deborah Bay, Dunedin City, Otago

Welcome to Lewis Cottage - an extremely rare opportunity to own a special piece of West Harbour history. Built in the 1880s, and bought by the Lewis family in 1906, this 2 room cottage was once home to a family of 18 - the girls slept inside, and the boys slept outside in the shed, affectionately known as "The Duck Shed".

With direct access onto stunning Deborah Bay, this property offers a multitude of opportunities for the discerning buyer - with council consent, renovate and create an idyllic weekend retreat, a unique Airbnb, or utilise as a handy boat shed (rarer than hens' teeth along this coast!). With views out across the water, over to the Peninsula beyond, you'll feel a world away from the hustle and bustle of city life, regardless of how you choose to use this site.

At 7.3m x 3.7m, some restoration work has been undertaken by the current owners, but this is basically an empty shell, ripe for improvement. No running water, sewerage or power to the lamp post - perfect for an off-grid development.

Waterfront properties like this are hard to find, and incredibly sought-after - especially as this one has the unique aspect of being on a freehold title, including the cutting.
