About this property

Top of Tyne -Peace, Comfort, and Local Connection

This warm and welcoming home is perched above Oamaru’s historic Victorian precinct and within walking distance to the famous Criterion Hotel, art galleries, boat harbour and little-blue penguin experience. The fully restored mid-19th century home offers a calm space, modern comfort, and local connection. Featuring high-spec double glazing throughout, this fully insulated home stays whisper‑quiet and perfectly warm year‑round. Heat pumps on both levels and underfloor heating in both bathrooms.

A view from every window. The designer kitchen provides pure, three‑stage filtered water. It’s fully equipped with quality integrated appliances. There is ample off-street parking. 

Upstairs comprises two restful double bedrooms, a five-star bathroom, and the main living area. The large kitchen/living/dining areas provide vistas East, North and West, ensuring year round sun soaked spots to chill. The large deck provides mountain, town and sea views. Downstairs is another plush bedroom and bathroom plus a flexible lounge/studio room opening to a north‑facing deck and garden. A resident community of native bellbirds and tui make alfresco breakfasts memorable.

It’s a short stroll to the stunning vistas of lookout point and other walking tracks. Close to Bushy Beach where hoiho (yellow-eyed penguins) can be observed at dusk. Walk to downtown Oamaru for great cafes, restaurants and shops or check out the fabulous Steampunk HQ. 

Thoughtful touches throughout the home make this a peaceful, modern retreat which provides a calming and inspiring guest experience.

Strictly no parties, maximum 6 people on the property. No smoking/vaping.
