About this property
Crawfords Retreat, your home away from home
The Crawfords Retreat is a fully renovated 2 storey house at the end of a cul de sac.
You enter the building through the front porch, coming into the main hallway.
To the left you will find the lounge with a splash of colour, a fireplace, heatpump and comfortable seating.
Two couches that can be folded out into two double beds.
There is a walkthrough that goes straight from the lounge into the kitchen/ dining area.
It is a modern kitchen with a fan bake oven by Bosch and a ceramic top by Beko. Enjoy some cooking, working on the granite bench-top or grab some local takeaways from Kings Fishmarket.
Through the kitchen or down the hallway, you get to the back of the house with the laundry and seperate toilet.
The tiled main bathroom has a shower, toilet and modern vanity.
There are 4 bedrooms upstairs, starting with the "kids" bunks room down the hallway. Beside that is the master bedroom withe a double bed, wardrobe and access to the balcony, overlooking the gardens and the north side of Invercargill.
Next is another double bed bedroom with a feature light ceiling and wardrobe, with views of the garden.
Bedroom number 4 has a king size bed and a feature light wall. There is a wardrobe also.
All main bedrooms catch the sun, but this one also gets the morning sun.
Enjoy the fresh beddings and towels and make yourself at home.
Being close to Stadium Southland , handy for all sorts of sport activities or events and close to Transport World Car Museum you be right at the most important places of Invercargill.
It is also just around the corner from Queenspark, with gardens, an avery, animals and a golf course.
Pubs, Cafes and shops are about 500m to 1km away.
