We are offering for rent our 4-bedroom modern family home with an attached garage. Located in the convenient and family friendly suburb of Somerfield in Christchurch, the house is only 4km from the CBD (and hospital) and 6km from the University of Canterbury. The house has a north-facing open-plan kitchen, living and dining area with a study nook. There is a separate TV lounge and sun room. All bedrooms are carpeted. The house is furnished to a high standard and includes a fully-equipped kitchen. The master bedroom offers an en-suite bathroom and a king-size bed. There is a queen bed, single bed and cot in the remaining bedrooms. The cot can be swapped for a single bed on request. Bed linen is provided. There are two heat pumps in the living areas which are also able to cool the property on particularly warm days. The house is double-glazed, well insulated and easily meets Healthy Homes requirements. There are additional portable heaters available if required. The house features a generously-sized 2-car garage. The garden is easy to maintain and includes a shed with tools. There is also ample off-street parking available. The garden includes a large trampoline and swing set, a gas barbecue, and outdoor furniture. There are excellent pre-schools in the area. We are in zone for (and within walking distance of) Somerfield Primary, South Intermediate and Cashmere High, all of which have excellent reputations. Less than 10 minutes walk will get you to Barrington Mall, which has a supermarket and a selection of cafes. The house is also close to one of the best craft beer pubs in the city. We back on to the local cemetery, football field and playpark. It is located on a cul-de-sac so it is a very quiet spot with minimal passing traffic. The port hills are located 1km south of us so it is very easy to access some excellent walking and cycle trails.
