Step-sisters catch winning

Sumner step-sisters Estella Hungerford (above) and Ava Henderson (inset) both won titles in the Emerson’s South Island
surfing championships at St Clair, Dunedin, over the weekend. Hungerford followed up her victory in the under-16 girls
division at the New Brighton Duke Festival of Surfing last month by winning the same section in Dunedin. Henderson
won the under-14 section in Dunedin, backing up her victory at the Duke Festival. •More results, page 18

crime
cameras
still on
hold
• By Sarla Donovan
THE INSTALLATION of Sumner’s
CCTV crime cameras appears to
have stalled.
A Givealittle page was set up to
raise funds for two surveillance
cameras following several aggravated
burglaries in the Sumner area
last year.
Set up by a group of concerned
residents called Safer Sumner, the
page raised $4005 towards the cameras
which were purchased at cost
price from security firm October
Protection in January.
The group wanted to install them
on a lamp post opposite the Sumner
Surf Life Saving Club on Main Rd
and contacted the city council for
permission.
Since then, the project seems to
have hit a wall.
City council transport operations
manager Ryan Cooney told the
Bay Harbour News in late January
the group had been referred to
the Linwood-Central-Heathcote
Community Board “in order that
appropriate processes are followed
i.e. compliance with the Privacy
Act.”

THE COMMUNITY has rallied around
Jonny and Rushani Bowman, owners of
Lyttelton cafe Rushanis.
They set up a Givealiitle page earlier this
year after Jonny had a seizure and they
couldn’t operate the cafe and it was put on the market.
The Givealittle page raised just over $7000 to help pay for
household bills while the couple waited for the cafe to be sold.
It says a lot for what the community thinks of the couple.
We reveal on page 3 today the cafe has been taken off the
market.
Rushani wouldn’t answer questions when quizzed yesterday:
“Watch this space. There are a few things happening in the
background.”
I reckon they’ll be back in business soon.

The original boat shed was
demolished in June 2011, after
suffering damage in the February

Its rebuild has been complicated
by several factors, including
the Coastal Pathway.
The deck design includes a
new 4m wide footpath along its
full length which will become
part of the pathway.
“The city council will connect
the pathway to this deck at each

Some $240,000 in funding has
come from the city council and
$327,595 from the Coastal Pathway
project, which will contribute
to the extra costs associated
with providing for the pathway.
The remainder has come from
grants the club has raised.
“The club’s plan is for a
combined boat shed, deck
and boardwalk that has been
repositioned seaward to make
room for the 4m-wide walkway
that the Coastal Pathway Group

The Good Mothers by Alex Perry
You are born into it or marry in. Loyalty is absolute, bloodshed revered and you kill or go
to your grave before betraying The Family. This code of omerta is how the ‘Ndrangheta
became the world’s most powerful mafia. The Good Mothers is the story of the women who
broke the silence. We live in their buildings, work in their companies, shop in their stores,
eat in their restaurants and elect politicians they fund. Founded more than 150 years
ago by shepherding families in the toe of Italy, the ‘Ndrangheta is today the world’s most
powerful mafia, with a crushing presence in southern Italy, a market-moving size in global
finance and a reach that extends to fifty countries around the world. And yet, remarkably,
few of us have ever heard of it.The ‘Ndrangheta’s power rests on a code of silence, omerta,
enforced by a claustrophobic family hierarchy and murderous misogyny. Men and boys
rule. Girls are married off as teenagers in arranged clan alliances. Beatings are routine.
A woman who is `unfaithful’ - even to a dead husband - can expect her sons, brothers
or father to kill her to erase the `family shame’.In 2009, when abused wife Lea Garofalo
`disappears’ after giving evidence against her mafiosi husband, prosecutor Alessandra
Cerreti realises the ‘Ndrangheta’s bigotry may be its great flaw. The key to bringing down
this criminal empire is to free its women and allow them to speak out and testify. When
Alessandra finds two collaborators inside Italy’s biggest crime families, she must persuade
them to cooperate, and save themselves and their children.The stakes could not be higher.
Alessandra is fighting to save a nation. The mafiosi are fighting for their existence. The
women are fighting for their lives. Not all will survive.

A Life Less Sugar
by Amanda Tiffen, Leigh Brown
THAT BESTSELLING NEW ZEALAND SUGAR BOOK;
COMPLETELY REVISED & UPDATED
How many teaspoons of sugar do you consume a day? Amanda Tiffen went from
30 teaspoons of sugar per day (unknowingly) to 6 teaspoons of sugar per day
and in doing so lost an astonishing 20 KG. After years of dieting and fighting to
control her weight, Amanda easily went from a size 16 to a size 8 in 9 months.
The inspiring story of how an ordinary and busy working mum used information
from a documentary she had seen on TV and turned that information into her
reality. She lost 20KG by reducing her sugar consumption, teaspoon by teaspoon,
and then wrote a runaway bestseller about how she did it.
Enlisting the help of good friend Leigh Brown who is an amazing cook (something
Amanda is not!) to create some low sugar, low carbohydrate delicious dishes. The
recipes are easy to follow with nothing complicated.
Part memoir, part diet and recipe book A LIFE LESS SUGAR will help you to reduce
the high sugar content in some of the most common foods that Amanda found in
her (and maybe your) pantry.

Fire rages, homes at risk
Big swells put Sumner Lifeboat to the test
• By Sarla Donovan
SIZEABLE SWELLS resulted
in a busy past few months for
the Sumner Lifeboat coastguard
service.
Following a quiet end to
2017 and between Christmas
and New Year, coxswain Blair
Quane said call numbers picked
up markedly with a number of
operations between January and
March.
One call-out on February 1
involved three separate incidents
happening at the same time, after
a big southerly change came
through and a “massive off-shore
wind” got several people into
trouble.
First a boogie boarder was
caught in a rip by the station
headquarters.
At the same time, a kite surfer
off Scarborough Beach got into
trouble and had to release his
kite which flew off “halfway to
the Chatham Islands,” said Mr
Quane.
“We had to take one of the
boats out pretty much to the
horizon to get his kite because
we kept getting calls from people
on the hills saying ‘there’s something
out there that looks like a
yacht in trouble’.”
SKILLED: The Sumner Lifeboat headquarters during a recent
operation.
Simultaneously, a catamaran
in the Avon-Heathcote Estuary
flipped over and everybody on
board fell out.
“We were all hands on deck.”
A week-long search for
14-year-old Jack Sutton was one
of the biggest the lifeboat had
ever been involved in, with 93
vessels searching from Waimairi
to Lyttelton Harbour.
Jack was swept out to sea after
getting caught in a rip off Sumner
Beach on February 5.
His body was found washed
up on the foreshore on February 12.
Sumner Lifeboat has about
40 active voluntary crew, along
with reserve crew and three paid
part-time staff members. It costs
about $200-$250,000 a year for
wages, crew gear, vessel maintenance,
fuel and operational
outgoings.
The boat can often be spotted
heading offshore on Tuesday
evenings – training night.
“Sumner is quite a unique
unit for coastguards; it does a
lot of its work within the surf,
whereas Coastguard Canterbury
and Waimakariri-Ashley are
predominantly offshore or doing
river work.”
“We need skippers to be able
to helm the boat in pretty atrocious
conditions. A lot of the
time, if there’s a really big surf
BIG WAVES: Sumner Lifeboat trainees practice driving the
boat in large swells and putting out fires on the breakwater.
on you’ll see the boat go out and
spend an hour or so out there.
The guys are just getting used to
driving the boat in the surf. Now
we’re coming into winter so we
start moving into night operation
stuff where we’re driving in
the dark, practising navigating
into the estuary, being able to
identify landmarks in the dark
and use gear like the radio and
GPS when it’s dark.”
It takes a year of training
before a new volunteer can crew
on a call-out.

Banks Peninsula by-election candidates
Fire rages, homes at risk
The five candidates vying for a seat on the Banks
Peninsula Community Board come from a diverse
range of backgrounds. Here they tell Bay Harbour
News readers why they should represent Lyttelton
•Yvette Couch-Lewis – I
live at Rapaki and my family has
been part of this community for
five generations. Since returning
home 20 years ago, I have
worked across the environmental
community in
the field, as a
representative
on different
community
groups and
now at a
governance
level.
For my tribe
Yvette
Couch-Lewis
it is about our
taonga species
and water
quality. At home it is working
with local government and the
community for the betterment
of our catchment. I believe that
I can make a difference at the
community board table.
Over the past 20 years, I have
developed my skills to enable me
to contribute towards making
good decisions that affect our
environment and community.
As a representative on the
Banks Peninsula Community
Board my goals are to work
with people who can influence
and bring about change for
the betterment of the Lyttelton
community. To demonstrate a
leadership role at a governance
level and enable the aspirations
of the community outcomes
to be achieved. And to
place consideration on the
community’s social, economic
and environmental outcomes.
When our environment is
healthy so is the community.
•Paul Dietsche – We are
very fortunate to live where we
do and I believe we need to do
everything we can to preserve
this place. I would like to see
greater clarity and transparency
in community board and city
council activities and better
communication between the
community board and the
people of our
region.
I believe
we all have a
vested interest
in knowing
what’s happening
and
how the decisions
made
Paul Dietsche
through these
entities will
affect us all.
If elected to the community
board, I plan to make myself as
available as possible throughout
the region to listen to people in
order to find out what they are
most concerned and interested
in, as well as encouraging people
to attend community board and
city council meetings and speaking
up about these things. When
people are not able to attend
these meetings, then I hope to
try to speak on their behalf.
•Tyrone Fields – I’m an
incredibly proud Lytteltonian.
I grew up here on Winchester
St and College Rd as part of a
family that has lived in the Port
for many generations. I went to
school at St Joseph’s, I played
rugby for
Lyttelton and
I captain a
local football
team.
I love the
town deeply.
To work for
Lyttelton
would be a
Tyrone Fields
privilege. I
believe I have
the right
values for Lyttelton, and the
leadership skills to be a strong
ELECTION: Five candidates have put their hands up to vie for a seat on the Banks Peninsula
Community Board
advocate for the town.
I will be campaigning on the
issues that matter to people in
our community. An adviser in
the public service, I am currently
completing a Masters in Social
Work. Before moving back to
New Zealand with my wife to
raise a family, I worked as an
analyst in London financial
institutions.
•Ashley Stanbridge – I
have been living and working in
Lyttelton for eight years. Having
been in Melbourne for the
last few years, my partner and
I returned to the port to start a
family. We and our young son
enjoy the
support we
feel around
us here in
Lyttelton.
I returned
with fresh
insight about
ways a community
can
organise
and come
together to
Ashley
Stanbridge
enact change. I have a passion for
small business and community
engagement. This is engendered
by my current position where I
am lucky enough to interact with
a large number of local residents
on a daily basis. Through these
interactions I have a clear picture
of the range of public opinion
regarding a number of ongoing
issues.
My professional background
is in business management. I
believe my experience will help
me to work effectively with both
groups and individuals throughout
the community to find
solutions to a number of issues
that affect us all. As an involved
local resident, I intend to bridge
the gap that exists between a
large number in our community
in Lyttelton and the bays and
the council that represents us
by using mechanisms currently
available as well as initiating new
channels of communication.
•Robyn Struthers – I am
standing to represent Lyttelton
on the community board because
I am passionate about our
community and the exceptional
harbour environment we live
and work in. I believe that to represent
Lyttelton you have to live
in this unique community. My
husband Neil and I, along with
our daughter and grandchild
live in Lyttelton. As president of
Rotary and through my involvement
in the church and wider
community,
I’m aware
of the challenges
and
opportunities
here. Now
semi-retired,
I am able to
give more
Robyn
time and energy
into the
community
Struthers
that I’m proud to be part of, and
that offers us so much.
This by-election presents me
with the opportunity to be a
strong and accessible advocate
for local residents and businesses.
I will bring to the table
my business experience, my
knowledge of the local community
and a confidence to stand
up for local interests. With Lyttelton’s
significant growth comes
great responsibility to manage
the pressures on infrastructure
and to protect local amenities
for residents. I will work hard to
ensure this progress continues
in a responsible and sustainable
way.

Pedestrian walkway idea
Richmond Hill resident
Stuart Grant believes
a walkway on red zone
land beside Richmond
Hill Rd would be the
best way to improve
pedestrian safety
The city council is
looking at the possibility of
reducing the speed limit on
Richmond Hill Rd.
This is in an effort to
make it safer for pedestrians,
because there is a
significant proportion of
the road that does not have
footpaths. The reasons
cited for not addressing the
footpath issue are “lack of
space and funding.’’
What a lot of the residents
of Richmond Hill Rd
would like to be considered,
is the construction
of a walkway in the red
zone land on the left side
of the road above the
second hairpin. This would
go a long way towards
alleviating most of the
dangers that pedestrians
face on the road.
SUMNER Volunteer Fire
Brigade chief fire officer
Daryl Sayer (right) will this
weekend be acknowledged
for “chalking up” 25 years of
service.
An event is being held at
the Sumner School hall to
mark the occasion, where
Mr Sayer will be presented
with a gold star for his
achievement.
The president of the
United Fire Brigades’ Association
of New Zealand
There is, and will
continue to be, significant
development on the upper
hill area that used to
be occupied by the golf
course.
Nothing has been
done to accommodate the
large increase in traffic nor
to repair the earthquake
damage that was inflicted
on the road. There is also
unsightly temporary fencing
between the road and
the red zone
Apart from local
residents, the walkway
could also provide access
to the World War 2 gun
emplacements at the top of
Richmond Hill.
This could well become a
significant attraction and
would be coming up from
Invercargill and local
Fire and Emergency New
Zealand dignitaries will be
in attendance, along with
many of Mr Sayer’s whanau
and family from the North
Island.
“I’m looking forward to
it,” Mr Sayer said.
He has been the brigade’s
CFO since June 2014 and
also owns and operates the
Redcliffs Pharmacy with his
wife.
NEW
USE: Red
zone land

Grant.
bring a lot more people
into the area.
While I doubt that the
majority of the residents
would oppose lowering
the speed limit, it will not
significantly address the
safety issue on the road.
The poor lighting makes
for an even more dangerous
situation for pedestrians
during the winter
months.
I believe that the city
council should take a
long-term perspective
on this matter and make
the necessary financial
investment, as they have
done with the excellent
earthquake repair job on
Clifton Hill Rd.

Community Carols evening held
in Albion Square was a great
success and the club has been
asked to hold this event on a
regular basis. Thank you to the

CHURCH BAY and Diamond
Harbour residents are reporting
a rise in mosquito numbers this
year.
Church Bay Neighbourhood
Association secretary Pat
Pritchett said she has noticed
more than usual. “We’ve had
to shut the windows in the evenings,”
she said.
Mrs Pritchett put it down to
the weather conditions, with the
heat giving rise to more breeding,
“although interestingly
after those two cold days we had
(recently), there were a lot the
following day when it came out
hot again.” She said the insects
were still biting and it had been
a topic of discussion at a recent
book club meeting.
“One of our friends on the
road around to Diamond Harbour
hasn’t had any; she’s been
able to sit outside. Others said,
‘well you’re lucky because everybody
else has them and has been
complaining about them’.”
The insects may not be mosquitos,
she added, as they didn’t
make a noise like mosquitos
said. “They’re more like a sandfly.”
“Sometimes you look down
as you feel something itchy and
you can’t even see anything.
We will deliver!
And then the bite comes up
so I don’t know what they are.
Mosquitos are usually around
in damp weather and it’s been
very dry. So whether it’s another
species
. . . somebody might know.”
The issue has attracted comments
on the Diamond Harbour
Community Facebook page.
Said one resident: “They savage
me when I go in the garden.”
Another said they had experienced
“unusually vicious bites.”
Diamond Harbour Community
Association president
Richard Suggate said while he
hadn’t personally noticed an
increase in biting insects, he
wouldn’t discount what others
had said.
“The point about seasonal
warmth and large rain is true.
We’ve had some late summer
wet, rainy periods on and off
and combined with the warm
conditions that’s probably what’s
causing it, but I’m no expert on
mosquitos, I just know that they
breed in warm conditions with
water around,” he said.
•HAVE YOUR SAY: Have
you noticed a prevalence of
biting insects this summer
and what has caused it?

How we met
by Michele A’Court
BALANCING ACT: On the rope bridge with Isaac,
Seraphine, Orry, Lucinda and Rose.
ENTER TO
WIN
Stand-up comedian Michele A’Court rekindles the
passion, with a brilliant collection of ‘How We Met’
stories.
How We Met is based on a collection of ‘How We Met’
stories - those lovely stories couples love to tell (and we all
love to hear) about how they got together. The author’s theory:
that these stories of how couples meet - the romantic, absurd, serendipitous,
convoluted, scandalous, breath-taking moments of connection - help to weave
their lives together. Partly as ‘proof’ that they were meant to begin this couplejourney,
and also because in each retelling they go back to those first falling-inlove
feelings and rekindle the passion.
The theory is based on a hunch, which itself is based on nothing more than the
author’s observations of watching couples as they talk. Michele then tests her
thesis out on a neuroscientist and a psychologist, and by the end of the book, has
some useful things to say not only about how great love starts, but how it stays
great.

A Place to Remember
by Jenn J McLeod
A multi-generational contemporary romantic saga set in a cattle ranch in Central
Queensland, Australia.
A man loses five years of his life. Two women are desperate for him to remember.
Running away for the second time in her life, twenty-seven-year old Ava believes
the cook’s job at a country B&B is perfect, until she meets the owner’s son, John
Tate. The young fifth-generation grazier is a beguiling blend of both man, boy and a
terrible flirt. With their connection immediate and intense, they begin a clandestine
affair right under the noses of John’s formidable parents.
Thirty years later, Ava returns to Candlebark Creek with her daughter, Nina, who is
determined to meet her mother’s lost love for herself. While struggling to find her
own place in the world, Nina discovers an urban myth about a love-struck man, a
forgotten engagement ring, and a dinner reservation back in the eighties. Now she
must decide if revealing the truth will hurt more than it heals...

Sumner poised to make
strong start to season
• By Gordon Findlater
A HEALTHY roster and strong
numbers at pre-season trainings
has Sumner coach Martin
Dodgson excited for the metro
rugby season which starts on
Saturday.
While the team are sure to
have their eye on a top six spot
after narrowly
missing out last
year, Dodgson
says the club’s
focus this season
is an consistency
across both the
division one and
Martin
Dodgson
division two
teams.
Unlike many
other clubs in the Christchurch
competition, Sumner have adopted
a combined squad of both
division one and two players who
train together.
“Everything we’ve done we’ve
done together,” said Dodgson.
“We’ve gone with a different
model, partly out of desire
and also need. We’re all in this
together and the aim is to see an
improvement across both teams.”
Sumner will go into the
opening round match against
Linwood at Linfield Park on
Saturday with largely the same
squad they finished with last
year. However, the tradition of
using young English talent is
set to continue with two players
from Saracens Football Club
expected to arrive in Sumner
during the season.
The team also has some new
faces in the coaching department,
with former Sumner players
Gareth D’Almeida and Matt
Cruickshank coming on board.
A player to watch once again
will be No 8 Dylan Nel, who
dominated the competition last
year, earning him a call-up to

Nel won last year’s MVP race
by the largest margin in the
award’s history. The South African
finished with 27 points – 11
more than any other player. He
also finished as the leading try
scorer in the competition with
16, four more than any other
player.

Cashmere Technical to win
the Hurley Shield from Coastal
Spirit on Monday.
They last won the shield
in April 2017 by defeating
Cashmere. However, they will

did on the previous occasion,
which saw them defeated by FC
Twenty in their first defence just
five days later.
The shield is contested in a

home matches by Christchurch
clubs.

rounds, Bays have two wins, a
loss and a draw to their name.
“We didn’t perform up our
expectations on Friday and
we knew going into the game
against Coastal that we needed
a win to stay with the title contenders,”
said Bays coach Danny
Halligan.
Bays’ first defence of the
shield is on Saturday when they
host the winless Universities

Shantytown Heritage Park
GNARLY: Hugh Ritchie took out the men’s longboard beating fellow New
Zealand rep Zen Wallis in the final.

Titles for Ritchie, Hungerford
and Henderson in Dunedin
SURFERS from the
Bay Harbour News area
claimed titles at the
Emerson’s South Island
championships at St
Clair, Dunedin, over the
weekend.
In the longboard
division,
Hugh
Ritchie
beat New
Zealand
teammate
Zen Wallis
Estella
Hungerford
to claim the
title with
a score of
13.8 in the
final. The longboarders
opted to surf the point
with solid 2m left-handers
working nicely.
There were also victories
for grom step-sisters
Estella Hungerford
and Ava Henderson.
Hungerford followed up
her victory in the under-16
girls division at the New
Brighton Duke Festival
of Surfing last month by
winning the under-16 girls
division in Dunedin.
The final on Sunday
was dominated for a
time by Mt Maunganui’s
Anna Brock. However,
Hungerford came from
behind in the dying
minutes to take the lead
and ultimately the win.
The 16-year-old also
finished third in the
open women’s division
final.
Henderson, 12, who
won the under-14 girls
division at the Duke
Festival backed up again in
Dunedin.
She stepped up in some
ugly surf to win the final
with a score of 13.9 ahead
of Liv Haysom, of Piha.
Henderson also finished
fourth in the under-16
division.
The stand-up
paddleboarding men put
on a show of outstanding
surfing in ugly backwash
with Redcliffs resident
Al Te Moananui taking
out the title over Mt
Maunganui’s Mark
Stevenson. Lucy Te
Moananui competed
in the over 30 women’s
division in which she
SPORTS
finished third. The open
women’s title was won by
16-year-old Tegen Bishop,
who claimed her first
open division event in the
process.
She also claimed the
under-18 title.
The open men’s division
final was closely contested
over 25min in solid surf.
Zen Wallis narrowly
took the victory over Piha’s
Elliot Paerata Reid.
Christchurch surfer
Sam Sands was third in
the final ahead of Sumner
surfer Harrison Whiteside
in fourth.
The three-day event was
hosted by South Coast
Boardriders and was dual
sanctioned by Surfing
New Zealand and the
South Island Surfing
Association.
Many of the
competitors will now
turn their attention to
the men’s Canterbury
championships which
takes place from April
21-23.
No visit is complete without experiencing Shantytown Heritage
Park, an interactive museum in the guise of a replica gold rush
village set in the late 1800s.
Shantytown offers insight, information
and fantastic experiences to thousands
of visitors every year. Step back in time,
discover legendary stories of pioneer West
Coasters through a fascinating mix of
experience and display.
Shantytown is set on 500 acres of
native rainforest. Experience the beautiful
short bush walks at your leisure. Or
take a steam train ride along an original
tramway through a native rainforest, get
a photo with one of two working steam
trains or talk to the friendly drivers.
Experience the sights, sounds and
smells of a working sawmill, watch the
mighty sluice gun blast gold-bearing rock
and soil from the earth, then follow the
water races to the gold claim, learn a little
gold panning and pan for your own gold.
The village, with 30 shops and builds
to explore, displays some of the 10,000
objects and 1000 photos in the Shantytown
Museum Collection. The on-site café
sells postcards that will be stamped with
the Shantytown Post Mark. For the perfect
memento, grab a costume and get an oldtime
photo.
Experience the sights, sounds and smells of a working sawmill,
watch the mighty sluice gun blast gold bearing rock and soil
from the earth, then follow the water races to the gold claim,

of a lifetime
Recently named as one of the world’s best scenic train journeys by
National Geographic Traveler, the TranzAlpine takes you from one
coast of New Zealand to the other, over the majestic Southern Alps.
Hop aboard to cross the fertile
farmlands of the Canterbury Plains,
and enjoy thrilling vistas over deep
gorges as you travel alongside the ice-fed
Waimakariri River. Traverse the mighty
Southern Alps, where spectacular views
of the chiselled alpine landscape will take
your breath away at every turn.
Then, after stopping at Arthur’s Pass,
emerge from the long Otira Tunnel and
descend through sub-tropical rain forest
past beautiful Lake Brunner and on to
Greymouth – a great base for exploring
this unspoiled region with its mighty
glaciers, wild rivers and famous Punakaiki
pancake rocks.
You’ll enjoy all this in the comfort of
award-winning carriages featuring huge
panoramic windows, or get even closer to
the action on our open-air viewing deck.

REAL ESTATE
Start spreading the views
105 Richmond Hill Road, Sumner - Auction 26 April 2018 (unless sold prior)
3 bedrooms | 3 bathrooms | 1 living room | 1 dining room | 2 car-garage | 2 off-street parks | Listing #FM5403
You will love this personal view and feeling
of being on holiday all year round from this
north facing position on Richmond Hill.
Boasting panoramic views that cannot be
built out over the sea, along the coastline
and down over the Norfolk Pines to Sumner
Beach. Two large palm trees and lush terraced
gardens frame this 1960’s home that’s nestled
beautifully into the hillside, offering peace,
space and seclusion from its private location.
This tidy home is very liveable with a good
floor plan, three double bedrooms and three
bathrooms. The master downstairs has an
ensuite and walk-in-robe. The living is easy
with a modern kitchen and open plan lounge,
all facing the views and flowing out onto
wraparound decks.
Tidy, well cared for grounds screen the
hillside with greenery and flourish in all day
sun. There’s easy drive on access to a double
internal garage with the added bonus of off
street parking.
After much deliberation, the decision has
been made to accept the insurance payout
and retire off the hill onto the flat. This home
is deemed repairable but currently insured
and is selling on an uninsured “as-is, whereis”
basis.
There’s some repair to do but with quality
homes all around, and motivated owners
you’re onto a winner here.
See you at the open home; please park on
Richmond Hill Road and enjoy the walk
down the right-of-way.
Auction is Thursday the 26th of April.
Open Home Dates: Wednesdays and
Sundays 2.00pm – 2.45pm until auction
day. See you at one of the Open Days, or for
a private viewing or for more information
contact Alison Carter of Harcourts

Autumn colour is easy
to achieve in gardens
and pots.
Add texture and contrast by
incorporating autumn/winter
flowering plants like polyanthus and
helleborus with the dramatic foliage
colour of heucherella. Don’t forget
to incorporate plenty of sheep
pellets at the time of planting for an
extra nitrogen boost, and keep your
fingers toasty with the ever popular
showa gloves.
