About this property
Akaroa Upper Deck - French inspired retreat
🌿 Akaroa Upper Deck — French-Coastal Charm Above the Waterfront
Welcome to Akaroa Upper Deck, a light-filled, lovingly styled two-bedroom retreat perched across Levels 2 and 3 of a Church Street townhouse. Wrapped in crisp whites, gentle French-inspired touches, and a calm coastal palette, this is a place where holiday ease meets boutique charm.
Just a stone’s throw from the waterfront — with cafés, little boutiques, restaurants, and Akaroa’s iconic French pastries moments away — it’s the perfect escape for couples, friends, or small families wanting a peaceful yet wonderfully central stay.
✨ The Space
Spread across two sunlit upper levels, the home flows effortlessly for relaxing, dining, and lingering over long holiday mornings.
Level 2 – Living, Dining & Balcony
Light-drenched open-plan living with soft textures and a hint of French flair
Bright, well-equipped kitchen for breezy holiday meals
Dining space opening onto your private balcony — ideal for a cheeky cuppa or sunset wine
Additional toilet on this level for extra convenience
Public laundry directly across the road
One off-street car park tucked just behind the townhouses
Level 3 – Bedrooms & Bathroom
Two serene bedrooms styled in crisp whites with a gentle French-coastal vibe
Modern main bathroom with walk-in shower and toilet
Peaceful elevated outlooks creating a quiet, private top-floor retreat
🌊 Why You’ll Love It
