The Ultimate Beach House with Timeless Style

Important note - The Longhouse is not affected by the recent lead issues to the water supply of the Karitane/Waikouitai communities as it sits outside of the Dunedin Water Supply area as confirmed by visiting the DCC interactive map. The property also has its own water supply so luckily is unaffected by this recent event.

Coastal living has never been better than at The Long House in Karitane. This stunning home in an elevated position takes in awe inspiring sea and coastal views and boasts it's unique private beach access to one of the most beautiful beaches Otago can offer. Not only that, the rich history adds interest and feeling as it was originally built for returning soldiers needing therapeutic surrounds.
