Cottage delivery - Cottages New Zealand
Proving good things come in small packages, the cottage series developed by Cottages New Zealand is rapidly finding itself more and more new land to call home. Various designs now reside from Mahia down to Porangahau, with a cottage in the Ruapehu National Park acting as a ski lodge.

Identifying demand for a larger version and greater personalisation, the latest design is for a three bedroom 90 square metre variant joined by extended options in the 50, 60 and 80 series and repackaged designs for the growing use of cottages as office space.

Cottage exteriors are painted using Resene Lumbersider satin acrylic or stained using Resene Waterborne Woodsman in Resene hues of the customer's choice. Inside Resene Zylone Sheen low sheen acrylic features extensively with Resene SpaceCote Low Sheen waterborne enamel in wet areas.

A new fabrication plant in Irongate Road, Hastings completed in 2004 allows cottages to be constructed side by side undercover enabling continuous production irrespective of weather conditions and protection of materials from the elements until sealed correctly. Cottages are completed before being delivered to either remote or local locations, all within two months of the start of planning.

Easy on the budget and decision making, see one of the Cottage series for yourself at 1172 Maraekakaho Road, Hastings or visit www.cottagesnz.co.nz.
