Description

central, modern, sunny 4b house amazing views of beach, harbour, mountains. Centrally located, very sunny, warm, modern 4 br house with amazing views over surf beach, harbour and mountains. 10 mins. walk to St. Clair esplanade with regular buses, cafes, bars, outdoor pool, and surf beach. Buses are every 15 mins and go directly into downtown and university. Also near some good walks. House is very warm/cool: fully insulated and double-glazed windows, heat pump, underfloor heating and modern wood burner stove. In warm temps, there’s slider-doors that open the house up and decks that go all around it. There are two flat lawns for outdoor sports and gardens (pick your own veggies and apples). There’s also a hot tub/spa pool (filled on negotiation) with views over the beach and mountains. There’s even a sheep next door. Even though it’s near the action, the home is very quiet, private and spacious with a nature-all-around-you feel. It has master br with en suite and separate lounge on one level and three good-size bedrooms downstairs with shared bathroom. In addition to the upstairs beroom, there’s good office facilities and standing desk in one of the bedrooms. All rooms have views. There’s a open-plan gourmet kitchen/lounge/dining area overlooking view (see photos). You can hear the ocean from all rooms. There lots of support on the ground when you get here too. We have a friend who can come to clean the house and help with any questions. We can negotiate if you want to use sporting equipment, e.g. surfboards. Utilities (electricity, gas, interest) are included in the price. Unlimited internet is included in the price. Please feel free to email with any questions, or to request references. There’s a limit of 10 photos, so we couldn’t show it all, but we can do a skype walk through if that’s helpful. We’re an international family, part-US part-kiwi, and, as an academic family, we know what it’s like moving across the world for your sabbatical. We’re doing it ourselves! We know this may be bit more expensive than some other places, but it’s a pretty special spot and we’ve tried to roll in as many extras as possible into the cost (e.g., internet, cleaning). We know you’ll love it, and will really make the sabbatical unique!
