Premium Features and Finishes: Bach Living Without Compromise

Despite its compact dimensions, the Matauri modular bach compromises nothing in terms of quality and comfort. Each two-bedroom prefab home we create features premium specifications that rival or exceed those found in much larger traditional homes.

Indoor-Outdoor Flow: The Essence of Bach Living

Unlike our smaller models, the Matauri modular bach truly embraces the quintessential New Zealand indoor-outdoor lifestyle. The thoughtfully designed floor plan incorporates generous glazing and sliding doors that create seamless connections to outdoor living spaces. For bach owners seeking the perfect entertainment setup, the kitchen and living areas open directly to optional decking, creating an expanded living zone that's perfect for summer barbecues and gatherings. This connection to the outdoors distinguishes the Matauri from urban dwellings, making it the ideal weekend retreat solution for those seeking to escape city life.

Two-Bedroom Layout: Accommodating Family and Friends

The Matauri modular bach's defining feature is its two-bedroom configuration, making it significantly more versatile than our single-bedroom options. The master bedroom comfortably accommodates a queen-sized bed with side tables and built-in storage, while the second bedroom provides flexible space for children, guests, or a home office. For holiday homeowners, this layout maximises rental potential by accommodating multiple guests or small families, while permanent residents appreciate the additional space for visiting friends and family. The two-bedroom prefab home layout strikes the perfect balance between compact efficiency and practical living.

Full-Featured Kitchen: Entertaining Made Easy

The Matauri modular bach features a comprehensive kitchen that goes beyond the basics found in smaller models. With full-sized appliances, ample storage, and generous counter space, this kitchen is designed for those who truly enjoy cooking and entertaining. The thoughtful layout creates a natural gathering space while maintaining excellent flow to both indoor and outdoor dining areas. For bach owners who love to host, the Matauri's kitchen provides all the functionality needed for everything from quick holiday meals to elaborate dinner parties.

Customise Your Matauri Modular Bach: Tailored to Your Location

While the Matauri two-bedroom prefab home comes beautifully appointed as standard, we offer numerous options to personalise your bach for its specific location and use:

  • Extended decking options to maximise outdoor living potential in scenic locations

  • Solar power integration for off-grid capabilities in remote bach settings

  • Additional insulation packages for year-round comfort in cooler regions

  • Custom window configurations to frame specific views and optimise natural light

  • Upgraded kitchen appliances for serious cooks and entertainers

  • Built-in furniture solutions to maximise space efficiency for holiday rentals

  • Smart home technology for remote monitoring and management of your bach

These customisation options allow you to tailor your Matauri modular bach to perfectly suit its location, intended use, and your personal preferences.
