What's around 577 Little Akaloa Road

A Retreat for Total Rest and Relaxation

Looking to get away from it all? Longing for that quintessential quarter acre slice of paradise to sit back and relax this summer? Then look no further than this gorgeous piece of rural estate. Located a couple minutes walk up from beautiful Little Akaloa beach, 'The Retreat' with its large flat section is built for all day sun, sheltered from the prevailing winds, bounded by a rural paddocks (often with cows over the fence) a large willow, meandering stream and native forest up beyond. Happy days begin here. Family is big in this house. The interior has been extended to provide an oversized living area and large open kitchen (the coffee machine stays!) with three bedrooms offering the accommodations supported by two bathrooms. The home is also clearly built for entertaining. The house opens up on all sides to ample decking and the lawn has seen many a competitive volleyball game over summer. With the welcome addition of a hot tub, studio and an upgraded original outdoor toilet, long holidays were made to be enjoyed here. In the heat of the day, the big walnut tree offers welcome shade and a swing to be enjoyed with cold drink in hand. Of note, this house comes with arguably the best mooring in the bay (to the left of the jetty - an easy swim in). The fishing in the bay is good - craypots out in the morning providing delicious Kiwi fare at the end of the day. The concreted driveway and double sized garage with adjoining mancave offers ample storage for boats, cars and the toys. Community is big in the Bay. It's just a short walk to the tennis courts, playground and a community Hall where the famed Summer Dinner is shared and enjoyed over Christmas. Little Akaloa beach is perfect for slow, simple pleasures: calm waters for swimming, surfing and kayaking, rock pools to explore, and plenty of sand for kids to roam while the tide is out. It is also wildlife central. A nearby Shag colony to walk to and inhabitants include seals, dolphins and Little Blue penguins. Beautiful St Lukes Church sits atop the hill as it has done since 1906. For those who might want to stay a little longer, the Bay has cell coverage and there's even a school bus for Akaroa Area School at the top of the Summit Road.
