Description
Built in the 1910's and once home to the Hapuku Dairy Company, this landmark property has been meticulously reimagined into one of Kaikoura’s most distinctive luxury residences. Known today as The Factory, it now operates as a thriving boutique accommodation, offering an exceptional lifestyle or investment opportunity in one of New Zealand’s most spectacular coastal settings — where the Pacific Ocean meets the backdrop of snow-capped mountains. Behind the preserved industrial façade lies a contemporary interior configured into two self-contained wings. Each offers three double bedrooms, a chef’s kitchen (one with separate scullery) and generous open-plan living. The design allows the property to function as one expansive six-bedroom retreat accommodating up to twelve guests, or as two independent three-bedroom residences. Vaulted ceilings and exposed timber beams pay homage to the building’s history while creating a living space of warmth, character, and contemporary appeal. A spa, gym, and EV charging station further enhance the guest experience. Currently operated as a successful luxury B&B with excellent forward bookings and outstanding reviews, The Factory combines architectural significance with proven business performance. A separate dwelling, The Barn, provides additional self-contained accommodation currently used by the owners. For discerning buyers seeking a private coastal estate, boutique venture, or both — The Factory represents a rare opportunity to own a defining piece of Kaikōura’s heritage.
