Residents

may win

battle for

changing

sheds

• By Noah Graham

CHANGING SHEDS at Scarborough

Park could be installed following

residents’ frustration the toilets were

congested with people getting changed.

The Linwood-Central-Heathcote

Community Board requested money

for the changing sheds to be included

in the draft Annual Plan.

The city council has budgeted

$100,000 for the project, which could

be carried out later this year, if the

Annual Plan is approved following

public consultation.

Resident Peter Hansen said the lack

of changing rooms has been a big

problem.

He said a lot of children and teenagers

use the two toilets to change in

and out of their clothes at the beach.

It has caused congestion problems

for those who want to use the toilets.

Community board member Darrell

Latham said it was something nearby

residents’ and beach goers had been

“advocating for.”

“Mainly due to congestion from

surf clubs holding teaching sessions

along the waterfront and using the

toilet facilities as changing rooms.

“This has meant that folk passing

have not been able to access toilet

facilities in an easy manner,” Dr

Latham said.

City council head of community

support, governance and partnerships

Lester Wolfreys said creating more

public toilets “makes sense.”

“Currently people use the public

toilets to change after swimming and

surfing. This reduces the availability

of public toilets,” Mr Wolfreys said.

FROM

THE

EDITOR’S

DESK

SOME RELIEF is on its way for

those in need at Scarborough

Park.

We reveal today on page 1 that

$100,000 may be put aside by the

city council to build changing

rooms at the popular park – and

that will be money well spent.

At the moment people are

changing in the toilets and that’s

causing a few issues for those who

need them for what they were

built for.

Scarborough is hugely popular

so it’s a no-brainer to put changing

sheds in.

Top marks to Sumner Running

Club athletes who stood out at the

Canterbury children’s championships

in Timaru.

We have a great shot on page 1

of Caleb Sutter, and more coverage

on page 15.

Many thanks to the club for

sending in details and photos of

its efforts at the championships.

Penguins explore new nests

In Brief

• By Bridget Rutherford

Marie

Haley

A SUCCESSFUL predator

control programme on Banks

Peninsula has meant some of the

world’s smallest penguins have

started exploring new nesting

sites.

In November and December,

Banks Peninsula Conservation

Trust carried out its

great little penguin

count at the largest

mainland penguin

colony in the country

– Flea Bay.

It is carried out

every four years on

the white flippered penguins

and took about three weeks to

do, because they like to nest in

isolated, and difficult spots to

access.

Although the number of

pairs of penguins had declined

since the previous count, results

showed they have started to explore

old and unused nest sites.

Nests were found in burrows

at Otanerito, which had been

unused for about 15-20 years.

BPCT Wildside co-ordinator

Marie Haley said it was exciting

news for the colony’s future.

She said it showed the success

of the predator control programme

across an area known

as the Wildside, since numbers

blew out in the 1980s.

The Wildside is a nationally

their nesting spots on Banks Peninsula.

significant area for the protection

of sea bird breeding sites.

“It’s taken that long for the

programme to be good enough,

and long enough lasting for the

tide to really turn and it’s quite

exciting.”

Ms Haley said the penguins

had also been nesting at the

bottom of Hinewai Reserve, and

also around the coast where the

predator control programme

took place, from Akaroa head to

Le Bons Bay.

They had also moved to more

open places closer to humans

and activity, and seemed to be

coping well, she said.

A lot more were also being

spotted in Akaroa Harbour, she

said.

In 2012, 1304 penguin pairs

were counted. While the recent

count found 1250.

Ms Haley said the drop was

not concerning, because the Flea

Bay population had increased

most years, and now it seemed

to have reached its maximum.

The very first count was done

in 2000, with 717 pairs.

The trust was also seeing continued

increase in the number of

sooty shearwaters or titi, nesting

at Stony Bay.

In the last count in December,

there were up to 50 chicks. The

number had gone up every year.

TOURISTS UNHURT

A tourist couple have walked

away uninjured after their car

crashed into a bank on State

Highway 75, Little River, on

Sunday afternoon. Akaroa

police Senior Constable Tim

Johnson said the tourists were

travelling too fast in the wet

weather, lost control and as they

turned a corner, flipped and

crashed into the bank.

CONTAINER REMOVED

On Sunday morning a 7m

container was removed from a

vessel docked at the Lyttelton

Port when it was believed to

have contained

a hazardous

resin. Lyttelton

Volunteer Fire

Brigade chief

fire officer Mark

Buckley (right)

said there were

no issues in the

container’s removal and it was

all done in a “very safe manner.”

Lyttelton Port of Christchurch

manager Doug Parker

confirmed a sticky

resin was spilt when the

container was on-board the

ship. He said it is in a secured

area of the port awaiting cleanup.

“There was no spillage into

any waterways and no harm to

the environment,” he said.

Better communication – principal

• By Noah Graham

LYTTELTON Primary School’s

new principal is aiming for

better communication between

the school and community.

Brendan Wright has been at

the school since January but feels

like he is already at home.

Mr Wright’s appointment

followed former principal Diana

Feary’s resignation last year, after

a number of complaints from

parents about management,

communication, teacher morale

and the impact on children’s

education.

Mr Wright said being the new

principal will be challenging,

something he is looking forward

to.

His major goal will be to build

a better relationship between the

school and the community,

“You’ve got such a mixture

of people in the community. A

variety of people with different

jobs and roles,” he said.

The school was “close to

people’s hearts.”

Mr Wright said he is aiming

for the pupils to learn more

about the place they live in, the

environment and the eclectic

nature of Lyttelton.

“There is always challenge with

change and for each school the

challenge is different.”

Before his new role, Mr Wright

was the principal at Hanmer

Springs School for six years

where he saw the school role

increase from 75 pupils to 130.

He said he feels at home in

Lyttelton and the school because

it is a similarly “close-knit”

community like Hanmer Springs

and having a good relationship

between them both is a crucial

part of a school running well.

“There’s been a lot of changes

in education since I started. In

particular, technology is a huge

factor in why it has changed.”

Mr Wright said when he first

started teaching they had an old

computer in the corner of the

room, now the pupils are using

iPads.

His main goal is to ensure

the school is working with the

community and making use of

the place they are living in and

the extraordinary populace.

Mr Wright said pupils had to

be taught to be adaptable and

prepare them for change, rather

than directing pupils in one

direction.

“They are going to have to cope

with change and we have to help

them to continually think about

change.”

However, he said reading,

writing and mathematics are still

the important basics pupils need

to know to go forward.

“(There’s) changes in what

people see the purpose of a

Repairing damage to the Port Hills

• By Noah Graham

IT WILL take years and

potentially millions of dollars

to rejuvenate the Ohinetahi

Reserve.

More than 83ha of native

plants were lost when the Port

Hills fire raged through the

reserve last month along with

1.3km worth of fencing. Now the

Summit Road Society is looking

for funding to help restore the

reserve.

The society has set up a Givealittle

page, which has raised more

than $5300, to help ease the pressure

of the potential cost, society

president Bill Woods said.

Mr Woods said it would cost

more than $16,500 to repair the

fencing, and hiring a contractor

to re-plant the reserve would cost

more than $8 million, money the

society does not have.

“It’s a staggering amount of

money.”

However, Mr Woods said they

were going to have to be creative

with trying to restore the land by

aerial spraying flax seeds, which

the society has collected, over

the reserve, followed by handplanting

eco-sourced plants

around the perimeter.

It is expected the cost of aerial

spraying followed by hand planting

will cost $50,000, he said.

He said, if the society had the

perimeter line planted, they

hoped maybe nature would

take over and spread native

seeds into the reserve area to

help rejuvenate the scorched

land.

He said it was also important

for the fence to be repaired

as soon as possible to stop

neighbouring animal stock from

wandering onto the land and

eating the young trees when they

are planted.

Mr Woods said they want to

get a recovery programme under

way quickly before the risk of

erosion and sediment could

affect nearby creeks and the

harbour basin if there is heavy

rainfall.

It was also important to try

and get as much of it done before

winter sets in and before grass

and weeds take hold, making it

difficult for indigenous species to

establish themselves more easily,

he said.

“We’re already losing that race

– there are weeds growing in the

reserve already.”

Mr Woods said it will be a 50-

year project to get the reserve to

how it was before the fire.

The Summit Road Society

was the hardest hit landowner

from the fire, with a huge loss in

native biodiversity in Ohinetahi

Reserve.

Volunteers help replanting

• By Noah Graham

MORE THAN one million flax

seeds have been collected so far

to help rejuvenate the Ohinetahi

Reserve.

Two flax pod de-seeding

meetings have taken place in

the Governors Bay Community

Centre over the past two weeks

to collect flax seeds which will

be spread over the Ohinetahi

Reserve.

Summit Road Society member

and organiser of the deseeding

meetings, Tony Edney,

said more than 20 volunteers

were at each meeting.

“I’ve calculated it to more

than 30,000 seeds collected

per person. They’ve done really

well.”

Mr Edney said it was important

for the society to collect the

seeds as the flax plants could be

the reserve’s lifeline if sprayed

over the area.

He said the plants grow

quickly and don’t burn easily,

but they would need a lot of

seeds because of the low development

rate.

Mr Edney said the flax pods

were collected from neighbouring

areas.

“Right now gorse seeds are

starting to germinate. They’ve

had a good head start. We

Edney said.

He said there would be

A public meeting between

police and the community will

months of concern from residents

about policing in Lyttelton.

Paul Dietsche, who helped

organise an online survey which

will show statistics that say there

has not been an increase in crime.

But he is hopeful the police

will suggest plans on how the

$30,000 lifeline for cottage

• By Noah Graham

FERRYMEAD’S COB Cottage

has been given a $30,000 lifeline

to stop it deteriorating.

The money has been fast

tracked after Linwood-Central-

Heathcote Ward councillors Sara

Templeton and

Yani Johanson

(left) argued

it was needed

urgently.

A total of

$300,000 which

was earmarked

for the repair had been deferred

out to 2020/21 in the proposed

draft Annual Plan.

However, Cr Templeton and

Cr Johanson asked for the repair

of the cottage to be brought

forward to 2019.

Cr Templeton said the

extra $30,000 will ensure the

building is secured and help

stop deterioration until 2019

while also contributing to public

consultation and consent

costs.

The historic cottage was significantly

damaged in the 2011

earthquakes and repairs were

put on hold until Ferrymead

area.

The work done to the cottage

will need to be consulted on but

there is no time frame for that

yet, she said.

Christchurch Heritage Trust

chairwoman Dr Anna Crighton

said she was delighted to hear

the plans were brought forward

and the cottage is going to be

repaired.

“I’m very pleased they’re going

to repair it . . . we need reminders

from before the earthquake,

particularly Cob Cottage.”

The cottage was built by James

Penfold in the early 1860s.

Mr Penfold was an employee

for the Ferrymead-Christchurch

railway line and helped in the

construction of Lyttelton Tunnel.

The building has a shingled

roof, wooden casement windows

and a plank door. The house was

rebuilt in the 1940s.

Reunion celebrates

Danish settler history

ABOUT 70 descendants of

19th-century Danish settler Peter

Sorensen visited sites around

Banks Peninsula recently for a

family reunion.

Descendants met first at

the Greenpark Memorial

Community Centre before

spending the weekend visiting

various Banks Peninsula

locations associated with the

family history.

The reunion culminated with

a get-together at the Akaroa Recreation

Ground.

Mr Sorensen, a carpenter,

and his wife Rasmine made the

journey from Yding, Denmark, to

Lyttelton onboard the Cardigan

Castle in 1873.

Conditions in Denmark were

not good at the time and the

New Zealand Government was

initially recruiting immigrants.

The Sorensens’ children Karen

and Nielsine also made the voyage.

A third child had died of

cholera in London after arriving

there from Denmark and three

other children, Mary, Frederick

and Bodiline were born in New

Zealand.

The family settled, first at

Robinsons Bay, and then in the

GET TOGETHER: About 70 people attended the Sorensen

family reunion.

Little River area, and lived there

for many years.

Family members worked at the

Robinsons Bay, Springvale and

Tarawera mills.

The children married into

families in the Banks Peninsula

area and Christchurch, before

dispersing out to various farms

throughout Canterbury and

beyond.

Bodiline Sorensen worked as

a housekeeper for the Rhodes

brothers at Flea Bay before marrying

Greek-born Akaroa launch

operator Demetrius Koinomopolus.

They were better known locally

as Mr and Mrs Dominique.

Mrs Dominique, who lived to

94, was well regarded in Akaroa

for growing fruit trees and selling

the fruit and preserves. The

Dominique’s house at 20 Percy

St still has some of those original

apple and pear trees. She was also

known for her fine embroidery

and her marriage certificate,

which she worked in cross-stitch,

was on show at the Akaroa Museum

over the reunion weekend.

Many of the descendants at the

reunion came from Canterbury,

Otago and Southland. Some also

came from the North Island and

Australia, as well as as far afield

as Wisconsin and Vietnam.

Only one descendant of Mr

Sorensen lives on the peninsula

today, a great, great granddaughter

who lives in Takamatua.

SEND-OFF: More than 360 people farewelled godwits on

Friday evening. The birds have started an 11,000km migration

journey to Alaska. About 800 birds left last week with 750

expected to leave this week. “It was just fabulous to see so

many people taking an interest in these unique migrating

birds, it shows that people truly value wildlife in and on the

estuary,” Avon-Heathcote Estuary Ihutai Trust co-ordinator

Tanya Jenkins said.

ECLECTIC: The Hell Fire Club owner Roz Dixon celebrating

her new bar in the British Hotel in Lyttelton. The club had

a soft opening two weeks ago and the response from the

community has been “really good,” she said. Mrs Dixon hopes

the club will be a creative space for locals to go and perform

in a welcoming environment. PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER

Linwood-

Heathcote

Community

Board member

Tim Lindley talks

about the community’s

effort in re-vegetating the

Avon/Heathcote Estuary

and urges people to also

help with the next planned

planting along the Coastal

Pathway

Community effort really does

make a difference. Sometimes

the progress made is so steady

it can be hard to remember how

things were before, but changes

for the better definitely are happening.

A good local example (and

there are many others) is the

partnership between various

community groups and city

council to re-vegetate the south

east Avon/Heathcote Estuary

edge and nearby gullies with

native plants.

Many projects are involved,

including the Charlesworth Reserve,

McCormacks Bay, Drayton

Reserve, Coastal Pathway,

Sumner Dunes and Mahoe-Nui

Bush – and possibly some I don’t

know about yet.

These are important for many

reasons, one being the compelling

evidence that being able to

regularly take time out in nature

is good for mental well-being.

It also represents good stewardship.

In Charlesworth Reserve,

rare black backed gulls have

begun breeding and the godwits

(now heading away for winter)

have found an extension to their

feeding grounds.

For keen walkers, Drayton

Reserve, tucked in between Mt

Pleasant and Balmoral spurs, is

well worth a visit. There are five

entry points. The easiest to find

are from the far end of Basil Pl,

the first bend up Glenstrae Rd

and the end of Avery Pl.

The bush is growing well here

and with a trapping programme

under way, it could even become

noisy with birdlife.

The next planting planned for

the Coastal Pathway is a special

one – the landscaped area opposite

Redcliffs Park.

QUESTION: What’s the rule

for meeting another boat that’s

travelling head-on towards you?

If you cannot answer this basic

question then, sadly, you’re not

alone. I will give you the answer

to this at the end of my column.

As I’m constantly visiting

boating areas across Canterbury

as Environment Canterbury

navigation safety officer, I often

speak with keen boaties about

the rules. This helps me to figure

out what people do and don’t

know about the Navigation

Safety Bylaw 2016 rules.

As a result of these informal

conversations, I’m very

concerned about the lack of

knowledge among our boating

community about the new bylaw

rules.

At one of the Harbourmaster’s

Office boating safety days.

I chatted to boaties about the

The land form and planting

plan has been carefully designed

by Wraight and Associates so

that people using the pathway

will not frighten birds away from

the estuary edge.

The planting is scheduled

for mid-May. This project

help. The project leader is

leaving Christchurch in April

and the pathway group is

urgently seeking someone to

take over. To offer help or to

new rules and jotted down (in an

informal survey) what people did

and didn’t know. On one particular

occasion I spoke with 133

people and asked 11 of the same

basic questions about the rules.

What surprised me the most

was that about 75 per cent of

Lyttelton is known for many

things – stunning natural beauty,

a rich history, a key position as

host to Canterbury’s port, and a

close-knit community spirit.

It is when communities are

challenged that we really see that

community spirit come to the

fore. The big challenge that Lyttelton

is facing now is the spate of

crime – particularly burglary –

which residents have been telling

me about for several months.

We all want to feel safe in our

homes and it’s awful to know

that there are people in our

community who are threatening

the security of our homes and

vehicles – whether these are fellow

members of the community

or opportunists who have come

in from somewhere else.

I am very pleased that the

being raised has been to engage

with the community directly.

The community meeting, taking

place at Lyttelton Primary School

at 6pm tomorrow, will be an opportunity

for dialogue between

police and the community.

It will be valuable for the community

to hear first-hand what

the crime statistics are in Lyttelton,

and find out more about

the work police are doing. But it

will also be a chance for members

of the community to have their

say, and let police know what they

have experienced and how they

feel they could be better served.

Looking into the future, I do

think Lyttelton should expect to

benefit from the National Government’s

recent announcement

of a Safer Communities package,

including 880 new sworn police

officers. The extra police staff

will be distributed where New

Zealand Police believe the greatest

need is. I think Lyttelton is

a prime candidate, and I will be

communicating that to our police

leadership in Canterbury.

When it comes to deciding on

the distribution of these extra

resources, it can only be a positive

thing for Lyttelton that we are

now opening a dialogue between

the community and the police

who serve them.

A lesson for boaties on how to stay safe on the water

Pirate’s Corner

the boaties I spoke with had not

actually read the bylaw. If this is

representative of our boaties, it’s

a bit scary. The bylaw rules define

what you can and cannot do

in waterways in the Canterbury

region.

What is the speed limit of

vessels within 200m of the shore

or structure, or within 50m of a

swimmer or another vessel? This

is another question that caught a

lot of people out. While the rule

is five knots, a lot of people said

either eight or 10 knots.

When I discussed the wearing

of life jackets with people, the

majority said they wore life jackets

when on the water without

fail. However, many admitted

they hadn’t checked their life

jackets to ensure they were safe.

Life jackets must be checked

regularly for wear, that they inflate

correctly and are safe. If you

do not know how to have your

life jacket checked, email me at

gary.manch@ecan.govt.nz and I

will send you the information.

Before I sign off, here’s the

answer to the question I asked at

the start of my column: When

two boats are approaching headon

to each other they must pass

port to port (left side to left side)

both must alter their course to

starboard (turn to the right) to

avoid colliding head on. To read

Sick bed to City2Surf

TURNAROUND: Leanne Crawford has put poor

health behind her and is looking forward to the

City2Surf.

PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN

• By Gabrielle Stuart

JUST A year ago, Leanne Crawford could

barely walk, had lost 30kg, was constantly

sick, and had to put both her work and her

wedding on hold – and she had no idea what

was going wrong.

On Sunday she will take on the 14km The

Star City2Surf with Mike Pero Real Estate

event, which she will walk, and she won’t

be doing it alone.

Her partner, friends and many of the

nurses who helped her get on her feet

again plan to do the walk beside her –

41 people in total – raising money to

help others with the same condition

get treatment.

The 30-year-old began feeling sick

in 2014, but initially doctors did not

know what was wrong.

It took almost two years for her to

be diagnosed and find a treatment,

because she was facing a complex

mix of parasites in her intestines,

crohn’s disease and endometriosis.

For much of that time she couldn’t

work, and she had to postpone her

wedding three times.

“It was like my life was turned

upside down. It was really, really

frightening just not knowing what

was going on,” she said.

After a Christchurch gastroenterology

specialist, Steven Ding, diagnosed

her problems, she has made a

gradual recovery.

But she said it was only possible because

of the help she received, and the diagnosis

tools provided by the Canterbury Bowel and

Liver Trust.

“The things that finally got me well cost a

lot of money, so I wanted to give something

back,” she said.

She has already raised almost $1500

through people sponsoring her run.

She said she had never done anything like

the City2Surf before, and after being sick

for so long being able to cross the finish line

would feel like a giant victory.

“I’m sure there will be tears,” she said.

“I finally feel like I’ve got my life back. I

can’t go for drinks or dinner like normal,

but I am still able to work, which is amazing.”

She works for Bupa as an activity organiser,

and said they held her job for her, in

spite of the fact she was off work for three

months.

She has also rescheduled her wedding, and

plans to marry her partner of eight years,

Craig Corboy, this December.

“I’m determined I’m going to get down the

aisle this time,” she said.

Learn more about wetlands

with interactive questions

• By Noah Graham

THE AVON-Heathcote Estuary

Ihutai Trust is using a new way

to get people wandering around

the Charlesworth Wetland

Reserve track.

The trust is trialling a questionnaire

about the reserve’s

local flora for the community to

answer as they stroll around the

Wetland Edge Walk.

Trust co-ordinator Tanya

Jenkins said people will have to

locate signs around the reserve

which correlate to 20 questions

inside a pamphlet about a particular

plant within the reserve.

She said it appealed to people

both young and old.

“It is absolutely fun . . . Who

doesn’t want to be a detective?”

Mrs Jenkins said it was a great

way for the community to enjoy

a 30-minute walk, while also

learning something new about

the place they live in.

She said there are a range of

questions which help people

understand how certain plants

are cared for or why they look

the way they do.

The questionnaire is the first

of its sort in Christchurch tracks,

she said.

Mrs Jenkins said walking

tracks in the North Island had

started using an interactive element

to their walks which had

worked “really well,” so it was

about time Canterbury gave it

a go.

She said a family had trialled

the questionnaire and loved it.

Young Sumner athletes excel

• By Noah Graham

SUMNER RUNNING Club

athletes broke records and won

several medals at the Canterbury

children’s championships in

Timaru.

Junior club captain Ann Wells

said it was a fantastic event at

Aorangi Stadium with excellent

conditions.

She said the athletes beat a lot

of the club’s records while also

nabbing a few top spots.

The club did exceptionally well

this year because it had a smaller

contingency of athletes and

produced a number of top-three

performances within the various

age groups, she said.

“It was fantastic, they all did so

well.”

She said the top performers

were Luca Tracey, Caleb Sutter

and Tim Ward.

The grade 14 boys’ relay team,

made up of Tim, Caleb, Luca

and John Wells, narrowly missed

out on a top three placing and

breaking the club record, she

said.

Christchurch Hearing

and Audiology Clinics

Lyttelton locals will now benefit from

regular hearing and audiology clinics being

held at Lyttelton Health Centre on Oxford

Street. Sincock & Till Audiology are the

Christchurch hearing specialists and saw

the need for a clinic in the port town. “We

have customers travel to us from Lyttelton

and with no full-time hearing clinic for

the area, it made perfect sense to make a

regular and ongoing commitment to the

area,” says Carolyn Till.

Full audiology services will be on offer

including hearing aid sales, adjustments to

existing hearing aids, diagnostic hearing

tests and wax removal. Sincock & Till

specialise in ACC for hearing loss resulting

from noise exposure. ACC offer generous

subsides for hearing aids when the loss is

caused by damage resulting from noisy

employment or recreational activities,

something that is common given the

industry of Lyttelton. “We have a good

relationship with ACC and significant

experience with helping customers through

the ACC process,” says Carolyn. “We are

fortunate in New Zealand to have access to

this funding but the key is to get a diagnosis

of a noise related loss prior to age related

hearing loss being more predominant.”

Locals who visit the Lyttelton clinic will

always have access to the Christchurch city

clinic on Barbadoes Street.

“Hearing is valuable and our message is

that “a conversation costs nothing,” says

Carolyn. “Make an appointment, talk to us

about your hearing and we will do what we

do!” “We are highly experienced and offer

a more personal approach to audiology

and hearing healthcare. We pride ourselves

on being locally owned, affordable and

independent of the large internationally

owned companies and we aim to deliver a

better level of service. What is important

to customers with hearing aids is seeing

the same person every time and trusting

that person to genuinely care about their

hearing. Hearing aids only take you so far,

choosing the right audiologist is as, if not

more important. We often have people

switch to us for that reason. We don’t need

to be the ones who fitted your hearing aids

to be the people that care for your hearing

in years to come.”

Anyone can visit the new hearing clinic,

even if you already have hearing aids

and want a more local and convenient

provider. Contact Sincock and Till

Audiology on 03 385 6036.

BAY HARBOUR

PAGE 21

Properties such as these very rarely come

to the market. This is a magical setting in

one of the most desirable locations within

Governors Bay.

Nestled on 10 hectares (approx.) of mixed

contour land between the hills and the sea,

this impressive 320m2 home boasts endless

enviable features. The house itself consists

of 4 dble bedrooms (main with en-suite)

expansive open plan kitchen and dining,

and large separate lounge with feature gas

fireplace. With living and sleeping over two

separate wings there is plenty of space for

the whole family. Endless private decking

with spa pool and flat, sheltered lawn areas

give plenty of options to lose yourself in the

tranquil environment and stunning views.

The original garage has been turned into

a 2 dble bedroom, fully self-contained

flat, and there is also a large original barn

behind the house. Both are un-consented.

Governors Bay is a very desirable and

popular Banks Peninsula suburb just 15

minutes’ drive from Christchurch city.

With a local primary school, café and pub

there is an excellent community feel here.

Llama Lookout is an extremely unique,

iconic and quirky property, with countless

options for the astute buyer to explore.

There is plenty of scope here to develop

gardens and put your own mark on the

house, or simply move in and enjoy the

peaceful, laid back lifestyle so close to the

city; yet a world away.

Deadline Sale: All Offers by 5pm 31

March 2017 (Unless sold prior).
