WHERE THE TUI SING & TIME SLOWS DOWN
Tucked away in a bush-clad setting, 42 Gibbs Road offers a lifestyle that feels worlds apart from the rush of everyday life, yet remains wonderfully connected. Just five minutes down the hill, the welcoming township of Collingwood provides a charming hub of local amenities, from the general store to the iconic pub and cafes, along with Collingwood Beach, perfect for a morning stroll or an evening unwind by the sea.
The dwelling carries a very rustic character, shaped and added to over time, and offering flexible accommodation with two bedrooms. Arriving via the external stairs, you’re welcomed into the upper level where the open plan kitchen, dining, and living area unfolds in a way that feels almost suspended within the surrounding bush. There’s a quiet magic to this space, where the elevated position and leafy outlook create the sensation of living amongst the treetops, with light filtering through and a calming sense of seclusion all around. The home embraces simplicity and warmth, with its lived-in charm and connection to the natural environment.
Flowing out from the living space, the large wooden deck becomes a natural extension of the home, inviting you to sit, relax, and take in the peaceful surroundings.
Adding to the property’s character is a separate building nestled within the bush. Rich in rustic timber features, this space offers its own sense of retreat. Surrounded by greenery, it feels private and peaceful. The ideal spot for chilling out or for creative pursuits. Attached is a two-car, pole type garage, providing further convenience and utility.
Altogether, this is a property that speaks to those seeking something a little different and perhaps a project and an escape into nature. It’s a place with appeal, personality and potential, and a setting that balances privacy with proximity to one of Golden Bay’s most loved coastal communities.
