Cabin Features

Living Space & Comfort

  • A greater sense of space - our distinctive curved roof lifts the ceiling above you, creating a more open, spacious feel than a conventional flat-roof cabin. The result is a brighter, airier room that feels bigger than its footprint.
  • Wardrobe nook with shelf and hanger rail.

Kitchenette

  • Professionally crafted by a specialist local kitchen manufacturer, with attention to fit, finish and everyday functionality. Not a flat-pack kitset kitchen.
  • Aluminium extrusion full carcass for added structural strength.
  • Formica® benchtop with melamine kitchen units & doors.
  • Stainless steel kitchen sink.
  • Microwave nook.
  • Overhead shelf unit.
  • Fridge space and powerpoint.

Ensuite & Hot Water

  • Rinnai INFINITY® continuous flow gas hot water system delivering an energy efficient and on-demand hot water supply that never runs out.
  • 900 x 750 Englefield Duracryl™ acrylic lined shower cubicle with hinged glass door.
  • Modern towel rail and toilet roll holder.
  • Vanity unit with vitreous china basin and melamine base & cupboard.
  • Choice of standard flush with pump or cassette type toilet systems.
  • Hinged ensuite door.
  • Quality tapware & fittings.

Interior Finishes & Flooring

  • Interior walls are spray painted in a modern Chalk Dust 1/8th colour. Other colours are available on request.
  • Full heavy duty, cut pile, 100% solution dyed nylon carpet in the bedroom area.
  • Stone Polymer Composite (SPC) wide plank timber-look flooring in the kitchen & living area, and ensuite. SPC is 100% waterproof, exceptionally durable, resistant to expanding & contracting, and low maintenance.
  • Quality door hardware.

Windows, Doors & Blinds

  • Double-glazed aluminium ranch slider and windows powder coated in a popular natural Flax Pod colour. Double-glazing means your cabin is warmer in winter and cooler in summer, condensation is controlled, outside noises are reduced, and fading of furnishings is reduced.
  • NZ made high tensile aluminium one-piece easy-glide curtain track over the ranch slider.
  • White block-out roller blinds on windows.

Electrical, Lighting & Safety

  • Power supply from standard power outlets. 15m power lead included.
  • RCD power protection.

  • 2 single power points.
  • 2 built in USB / USB-C charging ports.
  • 4 recessed LED lights.
  • Spare cable entry port for future connections, such as internet, TV or other services.
  • Smoke alarm with 10-year battery.
  • 4-year Electrical Warrant of Fitness (EWOF).
  • Gasfitting Certificate of Compliance (CoC).

Insulation & Thermal Performance

  • Full insulation through floor, walls and roof. Warm and dry in winter. Cool in summer.
  • Double-glazed aluminium joinery with timber reveals/liners, Pink Batts® wall insulation and MDF (timber) internal linings help create a comfortable interior.
  • Unlike the metal inner skin of steel-faced SIP panels, our timber-based linings are naturally less conductive, providing an extra layer of resistance to heat transfer (thermal bridging), condensation, and mould.

Deck & Access

  • Timber deck and stairs.
  • Outdoor bulkhead lighting.

Structural Framing, Roofing & Cladding

  • Built tough and designed to last using traditional Kiwi house-building methods, with timber framing, floor joists, rafters, studs, nogs and lintels.
  • Overlapped roofing, with cladding and flashings installed in shingle fashion to help direct rainwater out and away.
  • Exterior cladding in COLORSTEEL MAXAM® for enhanced durability and protection in New Zealand’s coastal environments.
  • Other COLORSTEEL® colours, Architectural panelling or weatherboard cladding options are available on request.
  • Quality long lasting materials.

Trailer, Weights & Towing

  • Manufactured on a robust custom-built galvanised steel double-axle braked trailer enabling simple relocation.
  • Easily towed using a light utility vehicle rated for 3.5 tonnes of braked towing - eg Totota Hilux or Ford Ranger, with a compatible electric brake controller. The loaded cabin and trailer must remain within the ute’s towing, towball and combined vehicle weight limits.
