Named because an old Datsun vehicle sat in the driveway for 20+ years, the new owner has lovingly restored the house to offer an executive-style home with fantastic views of Lake Rotorua. The Space: The Old Datsun offers a unique layout, comprising two separate two-bedroom townhouses, each with its own private entrance, driveway, and amenities. These townhouses are connected by a deck but maintain independent living spaces, ensuring privacy and convenience. There is no internal access between the two units, access is via the connecting deck. Each townhouse boasts two spacious King Rooms (totaling four bedrooms) and features a private bathroom, laundry facilities, and a stylish kitchen. The connecting deck features a lockable gate, offering security and separation when the townhouses are booked independently. Each townhouse provides its own gate and entrance, along with a single garage for parking. Guest Access: You'll have exclusive access to the entire house, including all four bedrooms, two bathrooms, the kitchen, dining area, and living spaces. Enjoy the convenience of amenities such as a fully equipped kitchen with a stove, oven, microwave, refrigerator, and dishwasher. You'll also have access to a washing machine, dryer, and BBQ grill for outdoor cooking. Free parking is available on the premises with gated driveway and garage parking. The Neighborhood: Nestled in the charming Koutu neighborhood of Rotorua, "The Old Datsun" offers a fantastic base for exploring the area. You're just a short drive from the city center, where you'll find a variety of dining options, from casual cafes to fine dining restaurants. Explore the vibrant local shops and pick up some souvenirs. For those seeking relaxation, the beautiful Lake Rotorua is nearby, perfect for a leisurely stroll or a picnic. Experience the unique geothermal wonders of Rotorua, with attractions like Te Puia and the Polynesian Spa a short drive away. Whether you're seeking adventure or relaxation, this neighborhood has something for everyone. Getting Around: Getting around "The Old Datsun" is easy.
