About this property

Chic modern shipping container a short stroll from Lake Taupo/Waitahanui River.

Welcome to our brand new designer tiny home in the heart of Waitahanui.

A short stroll to Lake Taupō and the legendary trout fishing mecca, Waitahanui River. This Soho-style container home offers a unique fusion of sleek urban design and immersive natural beauty.

Enjoy the sun-soaked deck, fish the river mouth, or take a dip in the lake.

Perfect for solo travellers or couples looking for a stylish base to explore Taupō's geothermal wonders, fishing, hiking or sporting events. A convenient stop in the middle of New Zealand's North Island without having to go through downtown Taupō. Easy access to Rotorua, Napier and state highway 1, north or south.

Container Stay has been made by a NZ professional tiny home builder based in the Gold Coast. It has been built to NZ code compliance standards and has used a single use container that has carried no toxic or dangerous goods.

Mill Road offers visitors a quieter, more intimate slice of Taupō—far from the bustle, but close enough for easy access to cafes, hot pools, and hikes.

Just a 10-minute drive from Taupō town, 5-minute drive to Taupō Airport and a direct 18 minute route to the Taupo Motorsport park.

It's the perfect base for kayaking, fly-fishing on the Waitahanui River, or simply unwinding with a book on the deck.

Whether you're here for sporting events, concerts, adventure or stillness, Mill Road is where tranquility meets natural beauty by the lake, which is an easy 5 minute walk away.

Complimentary EV charger available.
