On the ground floor there are 3 bedrooms, a bathroom and kitchen/dining/lounge, all easily accessible for those who find stairs tricky.
Upstairs is a huge Master Bedroom with California King bed and ensuite, a private sitting area overlooking the water, office desk, and flat-screen TV with DVD player and chrome cast. An ottoman that opens out into a single bed offers more sleeping options. Between the ensuite and the Master room is a smaller bedroom with single bed trundler and additional room for a portacot if needed.
The deck has fantastic views right down to the harbour and is the place to be for tea, coffee and books during the day or sundowners into the evening.
The kitchen comes totally equipped with everything imaginable including an XL airfryer, dishwasher, espresso machine, nespresso machine (BYO ground beans and pods), kitchenaid stand mixer, toastie maker, blender and smoothie maker. An 8-seater dining table facilitates communal feasting and competitive board-gaming, and the expansive lounge has a 75" smart tv and Bluetooth speakers. Unlimited wifi, SKY (including Sports), an extensive DVD and games collection as well as plenty of books and magazines provide numerous options for rainy/lazy days.
Young families are fully catered for, with 2 portacots with mattresses, baby bath, baby gate, mocka highchair, a stepped wooden highchair for toddlers, umbrella stroller, body board, books and toys all provided. For the older crew, there is a games room with couches, a 7ft pool table, and dart board. There are weights with a weights bench for those who like to earn their down time :)
In the cooler months, heat-pumps in the lounge and Master bedrooms, individual heaters in other bedrooms, electric blankets for the Queen beds and extra blankets are available to keep you toasty warm.
There is plenty of parking both on-site (including one space under a carport) and off for a boat and cars.
This home is maintained to an excellent standard by a fabulous local cleaner and linen and towels are included in the cost so you can pack light! Please note that bed-making and bbq/games room cleaning is not included in order to keep costs to a minimum.
Located down a private drive and surrounded by native birds you will find this home to be incredibly peaceful while being only a 10-minute walk down the hill into town, making it a great base from which to explore and enjoy beautiful Akaroa.
