A well equipped beautiful property
This home was personally built and designed by the owners with high end finishes, design elements with a stunning kitchen and living room with two very nice bathrooms and side covered porch and three bedrooms. A foreground decididuous tree does obscure your center view at perhaps except in winter but the bay is especially viewable from porch and kitchen and one of the bedrooms. The parking area is private for this property and sits just above it's roofline. We highly recommend this property.

Our daughter, who lives in NZ, was in a serious motor vehicle accident and so we flew down on very short notice and we were so lucky to have Nikki and Chris's house available for 8 days. It was the perfect place for her to rest and recuperate and for us to meet and spend time with her friends. Beautiful views and deck and so close to Lyttleton yet in a much more serene bay, next door. Lovely hikes along the sea coast. Very beautiful, peaceful, inviting, warm home. Nikki and Chris were great and very responsive. Would highly recommend this home.

As soon as walked through the door, we knew this home was special. Nikki and Chris have thought of everything from a welcome message , cozy slippers , bath bombs and wonderful supplies for coffee, tea and hot chocolate. The view is spectacular and we were able to enjoy morning coffee on the cozy deck furniture as we watched the sun burn off the morning dew. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with us
