The Boat House – Bluestone Estate

A rustic-chic barn for four at Bluestone Main Estate. Barn doors open to a north-facing deck over the estuary, with a queen loft bedroom, the Shepherd's Hut as a standalone second bedroom, and a cedar hot tub. Entirely yours.

Enormous barn doors open wide to the afternoon sun, and a soaring cathedral ceiling and skylights fill the open-plan interior with light. Inside are a pot-belly stove, vintage industrial furnishings and a queen bed in the loft under white trusses.

A few steps away, the Shepherd’s Hut is the second bedroom: a standalone room with a double bed and a vaulted kauri ceiling. The Boat House has a fully equipped kitchen with espresso machine, a modern bathroom and a separate laundry, and sleeps a maximum of four.

Outdoors, the north-facing deck looks over the estuary, with a cedar hot tub, a firepit, a barbecue and outdoor sofas under an umbrella. Lovely on its own for a couple or a small family, or alongside the Main House as part of sole occupancy of Bluestone ...
