Hapuku river terrace is a Eco Tiny House with crystal clear views that extend from the hapuku river to the sea. The terrace is located in the foothills of the seaward Kaikoura mountain range, where you can immerse yourself in peaceful bird song during the day and prepare yourself for incredible night of star gazing. Make yourself at home with a cosy pod coffee each morning. If you wish to stretch your legs, there's a track you can walk/bike on our doorstep which leads you down the river. Breakfast is available at a extra cost, just let me know.
Hi, myself (lou) and partner dan...brought this lifestyle block a few years ago..and always dreamed of building a tiny house for guests to enjoy this beautiful property aswell. We have 3 children, 3 dogs, 5 sheep, 3 cows, 4 chickens and can't forget the cat.
We are one of eight lifestyle blocks on the river terraces, with a deer farm behind surrounded by native forest. The river provides the closest access to the highest coastal mountain range in New Zealand.
