Some homes simply make you exhale the moment you arrive. Walnut Cottage, at 18 Bernard Street, is one of them.

This exceptionally charming, renovated two (double) bedroom cottage captures everything we love about quintessential cottage living, seamlessly blending timeless character with every modern comfort. Set on a classic Kiwi quarter-acre (1,012 m2) in the peaceful countryside of Pukemiro, this is a pristine home where life naturally slows down. Whether you're searching for your first home, a weekend retreat, downsizing without compromise, or your own slice of country paradise, 18 Bernard Street is a rare opportunity to embrace peaceful rural living in a home with genuine soul.

Wake to spectacular sunrises stretching across rolling rural landscapes, spend afternoons tending established fruit trees or relaxing in beautifully landscaped gardens, then soak in the spa pool beneath a sky filled with more stars than you thought possible. As evening falls, the sunsets are nothing short of breathtaking.

Inside, every detail has been thoughtfully updated. A stylish modern kitchen sits at the heart of the home, while full insulation, a heat pump, air conditioning, and ventilation system ensure year-round comfort. The renovation has preserved the cottage's irresistible charm while creating a home that's ready to simply move in and enjoy.

Outside, the picture is complete. A stunning brick-paved double garage & car port adds practicality and room for endless hobbies while the established grounds provide both beauty and privacy. Whether you're entertaining friends, growing your own produce, or simply enjoying the peace and birdsong, this property offers a lifestyle that's increasingly difficult to find.
