About this property

Your home away from home

  • This little Board and Batten Cottage would make an ideal getaway. Surrounded by the countryside on a quiet road in Puni, our cottage is an hour to the bright lights of Auckland City and just five minutes to Pukekohe township, where you can catch a movie at Cinema 3 or dine at one of the local restaurants. Head west and you’ll hit the charming town of Waiuku where you will find the beautiful wild West Coast of Kariotahi. or the calm of the Manukau harbour. Go tramping on the Awhitu Peninsula
    The house has been lovingly refurbished, and has been brought up to be very comfortable and homely, the cottage is attached to the main house by a carport, and has been given its own private entrance off the deck.
    You can mix and mingle with us when we are around or take some quiet time to yourselves
    A fully equipped kitchen, which even has a dish washer and lots of cookbooks.
    The cottage is heated and cooled by a heat pump situated in the lounge
    The bed is a cozy queen size, and the bed is brand new, so it should ensure an awesome night sleep,
    The bathroom leading straight of the bedroom.
    The yard is sunny, you will be spoilt with the amazing rural view.
    Enjoy lying in the hammock in the garden.
    Help yourself to the vegetable garden, and fruit trees and enjoy fresh eggs in the morning from the resident Silkie chickens and the Orpington ducks when they are laying
    Enjoy the outdoor furniture and a BBQ on the deck for al fresco dining.
    And there’s speedy wireless Internet, too.
