About this property

Queen Charlotte Secret Oasis

Modern and comfortable three bedroom cottage with all amenities. Open plan living and car port plus outside BBQ. The pictures speak louder than words. large mature trees and gardens with a fruit and nut Orchard.

All the comforts of home in a rural setting yet only 500 metres from the local store and petrol station. The Queen Charlotte Tavern is also available if you don't feel like cooking or the fishing wasn't really that good !! Wake to birdsong and plan your day....bring your boat or kayak if you have one and park it in your own driveway.

The slightly elevated site has water views over the Mahakipawa Arm of The Pelorus Sound but it is also within easy reach [8mins] of the Grove arm of the Queen Charlotte Sound. The location is strategic to both Sounds but also within easy reach of the vineyards of Marlborough for a Cellar Door tasting or lunch. Proximity to Picton also makes it possible for a day trip to the Capital via the Tory Channel. The local town of Blenheim has all the usual retail outlets and even a theatre.

Havelock is the nearest small town with numerous coffee shops and cafes plus a large modern marina where you can launch your boat at any stage of the tide, why not take a trip on the Pelorus Sound mailboat? The house is also well situated for a visit by boat to the several lodges sited by the waters edge of both Sounds....some only accessible by water.

There are two houses on the property, one occupied by the owner who lives most of the summer at the property in the event you should need assistance. The cottage is situated on half an acre so there is a lot of space for everyone and your privacy will be respected at all times.
