Artistic cottage and Garden sanctuary

Beautiful creative artist’s cottage, reasonably priced and whanau orientated.. Established garden sanctuary. Five minutes walk to to the beach. Open plan kitchen, dining and living. Indoor outdoor flow. Spa to relax in outside the master bedroom. Close to amenities, popular cafes and music venues. A wonderful sanctuary to relax and unwind. Jump on the Te Ara hou o Rangiheata expressway for a quick trip into Wellington/Poneke.
