I'm a geologist nearing retirement, and my wife is a property manager. We love travel, good food and nice places to walk, read a good book or pass time with a good coffee.

Picton was a perfect centre, with access to Queen Charlotte's Sound with it's great hike, half an hours drive from the Vinyard's at Blenheim, easy access to beaches at the Marina and along the coast. We loved everything about our stay. Thank You Nigel!

Beskrivelse av hjemmet vi tilbyr å bytte bort
Architecturally designed with extensive glass panels to capture the stunning sea and mountain views from every room. With open plan living, it is ideal for a relaxed holiday full of dramatic views.
The top level has combined living, dining and kitchen, opening onto a wooden deck as well as an inner courtyard.
The house is located at the top of the South Island very near the interisland ferry terminal. It is a perfect location to explore the northern part of the South Island.
The house is very eco friendly, and is cosy in winter with underfloor heating.
In summer the house is cooled by utilising natural breezes by cross ventilation.
I have a cleaning lady who will take care of the laundry of towels and bed linen at no additional charge.
