Co-housing benefits
Why join the Tapu Bay co-house?
Living or holidaying in a co-house has many benefits.
  • Affordable way to live or holiday in a stunning location
    Located mid-way between Tapu Bay (with its gentle tidal beach) and Stephens Bay (with its all-day swimming beach and boating access), the co-house is a great base for a range of outdoor activities and the heart of a small community committed to sharing with each other. Or you may wish to invest in the property so you and friends can use it as holiday accommodation.
  • Purpose-built private spaces
    The 310m² two-storey home was purchased in 2019 and has been renovated and remodelled over the past three years to provide privacy and comfort in three separate spaces. If you are considering using the co-house as a holiday destination, it's a great investment opportunity with excellent returns on Airbnb (with the added benefit of your co-house partners being on site to protect your investment).
  • Tenants in common ownership, with a simple and legally watertight property sharing agreement
    The property is owned as "tenants in common", a common legal structure, and the land title will show the names of each owner and their respective shares in the property. There is also a legally-binding property sharing agreement that anticipates every eventuality. If it is time for something different, our property sharing agreement includes a simple exit strategy.
On the doorstop of Abel Tasman National Park
Only one hour's drive from Nelson City and 15 minutes from Motueka. The co-house is three minutes walk from two beaches and only five minutes drive (or a 30-minute coastal walk) from local restaurants and convenience store.
Be surrounded by nature
Kaiteriteri has been a favourite coastal destination for generations. Located 15 minutes from Motueka, Kaiteriteri regularly features in national and international top 10 lists of the best beaches in the world. Only a short walk away you will find the smaller, quieter Stephen's Bay and Tapu Bay community.
