Built around 1900 and tucked away in a secluded valley setting, there is more than a century of history wrapped up in this charming Lyttelton cottage. The 853m2 setting has an extensive bushland backdrop with resident birdlife providing a music background chorus. You'll feel as though you're far removed from urban congestion in this privileged position. The valley setting is also beautifully calm with total shelter from summertime's easterly winds.
Secluded it may be, but still within convenient walking distance of Lyttelton town Centre, an added bonus for going to Saturday's Farmers markets. City access, bushland setting and harbour waters, this property could allow you to enjoy an enviable lifestyle.
With gorgeous street appeal, established wildflowers and plants frame the home. Steps lead up from the street to a lovely outdoor area. To the left the section follows the contour of the hill, with a caravan for extra shelter perched on a clearing. Keep going to a garden and wood shed. From there, a gate opens up to the steeper parts of the section which leads you all the way up to another small clearing where local fish 'n' chips and a glass of wine have been enjoyed from time to time. Indoor/outdoor flow is prominent in the home, with doors leading outside to different sheltered areas from the bedrooms and french doors from the dining room.
Inside the home, two large double bedrooms offer great accomodation options. The back bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe for extra space and convenience. The home also offers two sunrooms which could offer expanded living options for the future. Recent additions to the home include a Zincalume roof, log burner, heat pump and new bathroom. There is, however, still room and opportunity to add value should you wish.
