'JASMINE COTTAGE' - A WORLD AWAY

Imagine an easy commute from Christchurch but feeling a world away - this is what you will find when you arrive home at this cottage.
Set back from the road, the setting is private with established trees and gardens that include fruit trees. As you wander be delighted at what you find with other plantings in well-designed areas such as a potager garden. The chook house is ready, garden shed, wood shed and garage are all there. Hidden from the cottage is where you will find the sleep-out, originally designed to be ecologically self-contained.
The cottage itself had extensive renovations completed in 2005 with the current owners adding a new kitchen and double glazing; the hard work completed without losing the charm that the setting warrants. The living, dining and kitchen open out to a covered veranda in the front and double doors open to a deck area making the most of the sun. Two generous-sized double bedrooms with extra height ceilings, dormer windows and polished floorboards complete the look. A claw-footed bath is the feature of the bathroom that has also been modernised. A utility room with laundry has also been upgraded.
