Second Home – Seaview – 2 Bedroom + Rumpus – 140 m2

SEASIDE AVE - 70 m2

The client is a car enthusiast who wanted a big garage for the workshop and his partner is French so she wanted accommodation for relatives and friends when they come to visit. They both wanted it to look a bit like a chalet reminiscent of some properties in France.

Process

This property has been set up for future subdivision.

It was a cross leased section which needed the consent of the other leaseholder. It also needed resource consent because of being in a Stormwater Management Flow 2 area. Another consideration was height in relation to boundary . The project also required us to do drain bridging and take stormwater from the middle of the road.

Result

An old garage is transformed into a multi-functional space for practical use and guest accommodation. The added benefit is that it can also be used as a short term rental property and be sold as a seperate unit in the future so a good addition to a property portfolio.
