The_Cozy_Batch with a rural view
Nice comfortable
self-contained open plan two bedroom house with a rural backdrop.
Sit on the sun drenched deck listening to the native birds and if you are lucky enough see a wild deer or two or goats might stroll pass or have a quiet night on the deck with a wine under the stars.
On colder nights/days sit in the cozy lounge watching a movie or t.v in front of the fire. We have Vodafone tv.(which has :- On Demand, NetFlix, YouTube,etc)
The house is located on a quiet street with a bus stop to go to town for $2.50 or cycle along the lovely whanganui river bank along the mighty whanganui walkway to the historic city center or bustling Saturday markets,the historic Waimarie and #12 tram or cycle up to the Virginia Lake to feed the ducks (Pellets can be brought at the Bach so the kids can feed the ducks) see the Winter Gardens and Bird Aviary.
The house is well built to have the sun in nearly all rooms, most of the day and is very user friendly with an open plan living lounge that can be divided if you what a quiet time away from the kids.
The kitchen is very well stocked with baking utensils etc. and the bathroom is a very spacious wet floor with hand rails for the older guests.
Sorry but the house is not suitable for disability purposes at this stage.Due to to the three steps into the house in the front, with hand rail and the deck steps at the back. but once in the house is fairly wheelchair friendly.
