Nestled in the heart of Cheviot township, Cadman Cottage is a home that truly captures the warmth and romance of yesteryear while offering the comforts of modern living. Lovingly enhanced by the current owners, who had intended to make this their long term home, however a change in circumstances, including an irresistible job relocation now presents an exciting opportunity for new owners to secure this enchanting property.
From the moment you step inside, the polished timber floors and timeless detailing set the tone for a property that simply oozes character. At the heart of the home, the kitchen has been thoughtfully modernised over the years while respectfully retaining some of its original charm. The working coal range with wetback remains a treasured feature - both a character statement and practical addition - complemented by a modern oven and cooktop, creating a space that beautifully blends tradition with contemporary convenience.
Three generous bedrooms, all with built-in robes, are well supported by a family bathroom, separate toilet and dedicated laundry room - ensuring everyday functionality matches the home's charm.
A separate lounge provides a cosy retreat, complete with log burner for those cooler evenings and opens seamlessly to a north facing, wisteria framed deck which includes a spa area. Here, you can simply relax, entertain friends, or simply soak up the sunshine or stargaze under the dark Cheviot skies in your own private sanctuary.
Set on a traditional quarter-acre section, the established gardens have been thoughtfully planted to ensure colour and blooms throughout the seasons, creating a picturesque setting all year round. Expansive and incredibly well equipped, the backyard has multiple sheds including a large woodshed, garden shed and separate potting area, alongside established, fertile vegetable gardens. The oversized single garage has recently undergone an electrical upgrade and is complemented by an attached studio - ideal as a hobby room, workshop, creative space, or teenage retreat. A carport and ample off-street parking provide room for a boat, trailer or RV.
Cheviot is celebrated for its welcoming community spirit, vibrant local cafes, markets and craft groups. With Gore Bay just 8km away for fishing, surfing and coastal adventures and Kaikoura an easy hour north and Christchurch just over an hour south, this location delivers the perfect balance of lifestyle and convenience.
Cadman Cottage is more than a home - it's a lifestyle waiting to be embraced. Call now for further information or to arrange your viewing.
