Time to tidy up: Derelict<br />
buildings a ‘festering sore’<br />
• By Emily Moorhouse<br />
FRUSTRATION is growing<br />
among residents as derelict<br />
buildings continue to sit vacant<br />
in New Brighton.<br />
New Brighton Residents<br />
Association acting chair Brian<br />
Donovan said enough is<br />
enough – it’s time for landlords<br />
to clean up their vacant<br />
buildings.<br />
Donovan said the association<br />
has been approached by many<br />
residents over the past few<br />
years with complaints of large<br />
potholes in car parks and debris<br />
flying off roofs of old vacant<br />
buildings.<br />
“People just continue to be<br />
frustrated. It’s been a festering<br />
sore, I guess you could say.”<br />
Donovan said he has<br />
contacted the landlords to tell<br />
them about vandalism and<br />
safety issues with the buildings,<br />
but said they tend not to answer<br />
his calls now.<br />
“They don’t seem to be<br />
interested in doing anything,<br />
not even tidying up their<br />
buildings,” he said.<br />
The owner of the old<br />
SaveMart building said he<br />
has plans to incorporate<br />
development with the Oram<br />
Ave extension plan and is<br />
having discussions with the city<br />
council about this now.<br />
The plan, which was approved<br />
in 2016, would see Oram<br />
UNIMPRESSED: New Brighton Residents Association acting chair Brian Donovan outside the former SaveMart<br />
building in New Brighton. Donovan says its time for landlords to clean up the derelict buildings dotted around<br />
the suburb.<br />

Ave extended to Hawke St to<br />
revitalise the suburb.<br />
“I was down there last week . .<br />
. It’s in the preliminary stages<br />
at this point, but we do intend<br />
to develop that section,” the<br />
owner said.<br />
The owner said he expects<br />
to see some progress on<br />
development when the “world<br />
becomes a bit more normal”<br />
again.<br />
Other vacant building<br />
owners did not respond to<br />
<strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong>.<br />
City council head of<br />
sustainable city growth and<br />
property Bruce Rendall said the<br />
city council purchased the old<br />
Westpac building, adjoining the<br />
old SaveMart building, last year<br />
as part of a long-term plan for<br />
the Oram Ave extension.<br />

Grant to combat break ins and vandalism<br />
• By Emily Moorhouse<br />
FUNDING TO cover costs of<br />
security equipment means a<br />
community group can get long<br />
awaited projects under way.<br />
The grant of $8728 will go<br />
towards locks, flood lights, a<br />
monitored security system and<br />
drills on doors to prevent break<br />
ins and vandalism around the<br />
Ōtākaro Avon River Corridor.<br />
The grant was approved by<br />
the Waikura Linwood-Central-<br />
Heathcote Community Board at<br />
its latest meeting.<br />
Avon-Ōtākaro River network<br />
manager Hayley Guglietta said<br />
the grant gives the group certainty<br />
around beginning projects<br />
that have been in the works for a<br />
while.<br />
“We didn’t want to do all that<br />
work and then have it ruined<br />
again,” she said.<br />
The group has had trouble in<br />
the past with items being stolen<br />
from the grounds and vandalism<br />
and graffiti.<br />
In May the group had a handmade<br />
tabletop stolen from a children’s<br />
playground project and<br />
had “almost every hard surface”<br />
along River Rd graffitied over the<br />
school holidays last month.<br />
Guglietta said this behaviour<br />
will hopefully stop when security<br />
equipment is installed and will<br />
bring more people to the area<br />
once projects are set up.<br />
“Security isn’t the be all and<br />
end all but it’s activation . . . more<br />

people coming through means<br />
hopefully less vandalism because<br />
people wont want to do it when<br />
there’s others around.”<br />
The projects include a community<br />
cafe on the edge of the<br />
river with a real fruit ice cream<br />
machine, made with fruit foraged<br />
by the group and preserved<br />
in jars over the last three years.<br />
The cafe will also have a sustainable<br />
focus with no takeaway<br />
cups, seeing customers taking<br />
away proper mugs and dropping<br />
them off at stations around the<br />
area which will be collected by<br />

“It’s super exciting and it’s<br />
going to be awesome for people<br />
who are wanting to explore the<br />
Ōtākaro, they’ll be able to grab a<br />
coffee at the beginning or ending<br />
of their walk,” Guglietta said.<br />
Community board chair Alexandra<br />
Davids said she has seen<br />
a lot of break ins in this area,<br />
which puts community groups<br />
on the backfoot.<br />
“I think for us to have an<br />
impact on a community organisation<br />
that gives so much to the<br />
community is important,” she<br />
said.<br />
Guglietta said the income from<br />
the cafe will allow the group to<br />
expand and continue introducing<br />
more community projects in<br />
the area.<br />
“It just means we can push on<br />
with something we’ve been working<br />
on for a long time,” she said.<br />
“This is good news, onwards<br />
and upwards.”<br />

From swimming lessons to instructor<br />
IN 2002, a five-year-old Nick<br />
Weir jumped into the pool at<br />
Pioneer Recreation and Sport<br />
Centre for one of the first ever<br />
Swimsmart lessons.<br />
Now marking the 20 years of<br />
the city council programme,<br />
Weir has gone from pupil to<br />
teacher as the swim education<br />
team leader at Te Pou Toetoe:<br />
Linwood Pool.<br />
“I remember it was such a fun<br />
environment when I was a kid.<br />
The mix of learning a valuable<br />
skill but not really realising it<br />
because it was so much fun,” he<br />
said.<br />
From five to 14-years-old,<br />
Weir was part of the Swimsmart<br />
programme and two years<br />
later he got his first job as an<br />
instructor.<br />
“I’ve navigated my way<br />
• From page 1<br />
Rendall said the city council is<br />
having ongoing discussions with<br />
the old SaveMart building owner<br />
about this planned development.<br />
Donovan said some vacant<br />
buildings’ windows have had<br />
bricks thrown through them,<br />
while other buildings had been<br />
graffitied.<br />
He also said an elderly woman<br />
had fallen over in the car park<br />
area on Hawke St, trying to<br />
navigate her way around the<br />
through the ocean that is swim<br />
education, first and foremost<br />
being a swimmer, becoming an<br />
instructor, supervisor and then<br />
most recently becoming the<br />
team leader at Te Pou Toetoe,”<br />
Weir said.<br />
“I was definitely inspired by<br />
my years taking part in lessons.<br />
The more kids enjoy swimming<br />
lessons, the more they learn and<br />
that was the case for me.”<br />
In his current role he likes<br />
having the opportunity to teach<br />
and pass on the knowledge that<br />
I’ve acquired to new instructors.<br />
“Giving them the necessary<br />
skills to continue to teach our<br />
rangatahi and to continue give<br />
back to the community an<br />
essential life skill. My passion is<br />
helping people and if I can do so<br />
by continuing to help keep our<br />
potholes.<br />
“It’s absolutely shocking, I<br />
have no idea how they’ve gotten<br />
away with that, from a health<br />
and safety point of view it’s just<br />
dangerous.”<br />
Coastal Ward councillor Celeste<br />
Donovan said she’s lobbied<br />
to have the new rating scheme<br />
for vacant land in the central city<br />
applied to New Brighton.<br />
The rating scheme, approved<br />
by the city council in June, sees<br />
owners of empty central city<br />
tamariki safe in the water that<br />
to me is a job well done,” he<br />
said.<br />
“The Swimsmart programme<br />
has a focus on learning how to<br />
be safe in and around the water.<br />
If we can help kids become<br />
confident and help prevent<br />
drownings that is what’s most<br />
important.”<br />
But even now he never misses<br />
an opportunity to pop his togs<br />
on and jump in the pool to help<br />
teach the odd lesson.<br />
“This job is something that I<br />
absolutely love and have loved<br />
watching children and adults<br />
grow in their confidence and<br />
ability over the years,” he said.<br />
“There’s a real sense of feeling<br />
like what we do has a positive<br />
impact on the community. Te<br />
Pou Toetoe and our work is<br />
blocks pay more than four times<br />
the standard general rate, but<br />
only if there is no active or consented<br />
use being made of<br />
the land.<br />
“It’s really important<br />
that we don’t forget we<br />
have the same issues in<br />
suburban areas,” she said.<br />
“We need to use the<br />
same policy letters to<br />
encourage the right kinds<br />
of development in areas<br />
such as New Brighton that might<br />
making people’s lives better.”<br />
Christchurch Recreation and<br />
Sports Centres are marking<br />
the 20 years of Swimsmart by<br />
profiling 20 people who have<br />
been involved in the programme.<br />
have suffered from a long history<br />
of land banking too.”<br />
She said the scheme is about<br />
encouraging developers<br />
and people that own the<br />
properties to “do the right<br />
thing”.<br />
Brian Donovan said<br />
landlords’ decision to not<br />
do anything with their<br />
buildings was further<br />
delaying the regeneration<br />
of New Brighton.<br />
“If you don’t want to sell, you<br />

Donovan<br />
develop; if you don’t want to<br />
develop, you sell. You know, it<br />
seems like the simple equation<br />
to me.”<br />
He said the future of New<br />
Brighton “depends” on these<br />
landlords to make a difference<br />
after “years and years” of these<br />
buildings sitting vacant.<br />
“They either play ball or just<br />
get out and if they don’t get out<br />
and we have to somehow find the<br />
matters to force them out, that’s<br />
the situation where it’s got to.”<br />

Competition an opportunity for<br />
Gabby Sanders is travelling<br />
to Australia to compete<br />
for a golden chef’s hat<br />
award. Reporter Emily<br />
Moorhouse talks to<br />
Sanders about her unlikely<br />
favourite foods as a child,<br />
her thought process<br />
behind a successful menu<br />
and why she is passionate<br />
about cooking<br />
263 x 180<br />
PASSIONATE: Gabby Sanders has always had an interest in cooking and says food can be used as a way to bring people together.<br />
GABBY SANDERS remembers<br />
trying to help her mum in the<br />
kitchen when she was a little girl<br />
was probably “quite annoying”.<br />
But fast forward 20 years and<br />
that curiosity in the kitchen has<br />
paid off – next month she will be<br />
in Melbourne representing the<br />
South Island in the grand finals of<br />
the <strong>2022</strong> Nestlé Golden Chef’s Hat<br />
Award.<br />
Sanders, 23, won gold at the<br />
regional heats to qualify for the<br />
grand finals, held at Ara Institute<br />
of Canterbury, where she is<br />
studying towards a diploma in<br />
cookery level 5.<br />
She received gold for her twocourse<br />
menu of hoisin glaze pork,<br />
black vinegar dumpling and<br />
umami broth and a dessert of chai<br />
spice cake with pear, coffee, pecan<br />
and white chocolate.<br />
“It was surreal, it didn’t actually<br />
feel real because I wasn’t expecting<br />
it to happen at all,” Sanders said.<br />

passionate junior chef to shine<br />
She had competed in the heats<br />
last year, narrowly missing out on<br />
bronze so wanted to really push<br />
herself this year.<br />
Sanders will be competing<br />
against 12 other chefs, with<br />
one other chef from the North<br />
Island and the rest from all over<br />
Australia.<br />
The winner will be awarded an<br />
AU$10,000 cash prize, something<br />
Sanders said would be an amazing<br />
opportunity to help expand<br />
her cooking equipment.<br />
“I’d be able to go out and immerse<br />
myself in the food culture<br />
in Christchurch and around New<br />
Zealand a wee bit more which<br />
would be fantastic as well.”<br />
While Sanders has always had<br />
an interest in cooking, she never<br />
considered it to be her professional<br />
career.<br />
After leaving Lincoln High<br />
School, Sanders worked full-time<br />
at a supermarket, still figuring<br />
out what she wanted to do.<br />
Her co-worker Jeremy, who was<br />
going through a career change<br />
to be a chef, encouraged her to<br />
study cookery, so she decided to<br />
give it a go and enrolled at Ara.<br />
Sanders said she is still in<br />
contact with Jeremy and he was<br />
stoked to hear about her securing<br />
a spot in the grand finals competition.<br />
Sanders said her mother is an<br />
“amazing” cook and growing up,<br />
she was encouraged to eat like an<br />
adult and try new things.<br />
HELPING HAND: As a child, Gabby Sanders loved to help<br />
her mother out in the kitchen. Here she is at three-yearsold<br />
with a cake.<br />
“We’d always be pushed to try<br />
new things. As a kid some of my<br />
favourite foods were blue cheese<br />
and pâté and olives which lots of<br />
kids don’t really enjoy.<br />
“I really like how food sort of<br />
brings people together, it’s something<br />
to enjoy with a group.”<br />
Sanders lives with her partner<br />
in St Albans and when asked<br />
if they enjoy her cooking she<br />
laughed.<br />
“You’d think so but we eat a lot<br />
of curries and baked beans and<br />
stuff, just general easy dinners.”<br />
Although, she did say she’s<br />
been enjoying cooking heavy,<br />
richer meals during the colder<br />
weather, such as lamb shanks and<br />
beef stew.<br />
She said the most challenging<br />
thing to cook is anything she’s<br />
unfamiliar with as it can take a<br />
while to get her head around it.<br />
“I think the hardest thing to<br />
make is probably something<br />
you’re too scared to have a go at .<br />
. . [but] the only thing worse than<br />
messing something up is just not<br />
trying in the first place.”<br />
Sanders is “hesitantly confident”<br />
for the grand finals and<br />
while she’s excited to give it a go,<br />
she’s also still processing it all.<br />
During the regional heats,<br />
chefs were judged on presentation,<br />
taste and the use of ingredients<br />
down to how clean they<br />
are in the kitchen, general food<br />
handling and how much food<br />
they waste.<br />
“You’re being watched the<br />
whole time, it’s a bit scary,” Sanders<br />
said.<br />
For each competition, chefs are<br />
given a set ingredient list which<br />
they have to build their menu<br />
around.<br />
Sanders said she likes to sit<br />
down and brainstorm what flavours<br />
would work well together<br />
then, with the help of her tutors,<br />
figure out the best way to execute<br />
each piece of the dish.<br />
“You can always tweak it and<br />
improve it and everyone’s taste is<br />
different,” she said.<br />
“It’s a group effort to get<br />
something down that majority of<br />
people would enjoy eating.”<br />
Sanders works on what the<br />
dish will look like last, once she’s<br />
nailed the taste.<br />
“The way it tastes is the most<br />
important because it could look<br />
amazing and just taste awful and<br />
there’s not much point in that.”<br />
As for kitchen fails, nothing<br />
sprung to mind for Sanders,<br />
although she admitted she has<br />
dropped and burnt her fair share<br />
of things.<br />
“When you mess something<br />
up it’s how you deal with it and<br />
make it work in the end, it’s<br />
always a really good learning<br />
experience because when you<br />
make a big mistake you’re always<br />
going to remember it and not do<br />
it again.”<br />
Outside of study, Sanders<br />
works part-time at The Monday<br />
Room as a commis chef, a job<br />
she scored from completing work<br />
experience there as part of her<br />
study.<br />
As a commis chef, Sanders<br />
assists the other chefs with food<br />
preparation, particularly working<br />
on entrées and desserts, although<br />
she said she likes to give everything<br />
a go.<br />
When Sanders graduates she<br />
said she’s open to moving around<br />
a bit and maybe spending some<br />
time overseas but for now she is<br />
happy where she is, doing what<br />
she loves.<br />

Add some zing to your roast beef<br />
A spicy marinade is<br />
a good way to add<br />
something different<br />
to a traditional meal<br />
Whisky marinade for beef<br />
Serves 3-4<br />
Ingredients<br />
1 cup chopped pitted dates<br />
¼ cup orange juice<br />
1 cup peeled and diced orange<br />
3 cups self-raising flour<br />
¼ tsp salt<br />
50gm chilled butter, chopped<br />
1½ cups milk, warmed<br />
2 tbsp cane sugar<br />
Ingredients<br />
Directions<br />
¼ cup whisky<br />
2 tbsp prepared mustard<br />
3-4 tbsp olive oil<br />
400g beef fillet<br />
freshly ground black pepper<br />
1 cup beef stock<br />
1 tbsp thyme leaves<br />
Directions<br />
Whisk whisky, mustard and 3<br />
tbsp of olive oil until well combined.<br />
Place beef in a plastic bag.<br />
Add marinade. Refrigerate for<br />
60min. Return to room temperature<br />
before cooking.<br />
Preheat grill on high. Remove<br />
meat from marinade and pat dry.<br />
Brush with remaining oil. Season<br />
with black pepper.<br />
Grill for about 8min each side.<br />
To test if done, press thickest part<br />
of meat with your fingertip. The<br />
softer it is the rarer it is; the firmer<br />
it is, the more cooked. Tent with<br />
foil and cover with a thick towel.<br />
Rest for 10min before slicing.<br />
Bring marinade, stock and<br />
thyme to the boil. Simmer for<br />
10min. Serve with the meat.<br />
Roasted tomato, butter<br />
bean, and watercress<br />
Serves 4<br />
Ingredients<br />
2 tsp salt<br />
8 tomatoes<br />
2 cloves garlic<br />
1 tbsp olive oil<br />
1 tsp brown sugar<br />
2 sprigs fresh rosemary<br />
1 freshly ground black pepper,<br />
to season<br />
1½ cups butter beans<br />
4 handfuls watercress,<br />
100gm almonds, roasted and<br />
salted<br />
2 tsp lemon juice<br />
1 tbsp fresh herbs, such as parsley,<br />
oregano, marjoram, finely<br />
chopped<br />
1 cup creme fraiche<br />
Directions<br />
Preheat the oven to 220 deg C.<br />
Arrange the tomatoes in a dish.<br />
Drizzle over the oil, sprinkle<br />
the salt, pepper and brown sugar.<br />
Finely slice the garlic and add<br />
with the rosemary.<br />
Bake for 20min then let cool.<br />
Combine the butter beans<br />
with the watercress. Arrange<br />
on a platter or individual dishes<br />
then add the tomatoes and the<br />
almonds.<br />
Mix together the creme<br />
fraiche, lemon juice and herbs.<br />
Spoon over the salad before<br />
serving.<br />
Date and orange scones<br />
Serves 6 to 8<br />
Heat oven to 210 deg C. Line a<br />
baking tray with baking paper.<br />
In a bowl, combine the<br />
chopped dates with the orange<br />
juice and cover with plastic wrap.<br />
Microwave for 1-2 minutes, until<br />
the dates absorb the orange juice.<br />
Add the diced orange.<br />
Sift the flour and salt into a<br />
bowl. Rub in the butter until the<br />
mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.<br />
Add the warm milk to the<br />
date and orange mixture, stir to<br />
combine then mix quickly into<br />
the flour with a spatula. Do not<br />
knead.<br />
Turn out on to a floured<br />
bench. Dust the top with flour<br />
and pat out to an even rectangle<br />
about 2.5cm thick with your<br />
hands.<br />
Cut the mixture into squares<br />
or rounds. Place the scones on<br />
the prepared tray.<br />
Sprinkle with the sugar. Bake<br />
for about 20min.<br />

We have hit the ground<br />
running in Term 3 and are<br />
already enjoying significant<br />
success with many of the<br />
projects we have running<br />
for ākonga. The Ministry of<br />
Education arranged for a<br />
film crew to visit the kura<br />
in Week 2 of the term to<br />
capture footage of the day to<br />
day life of ākonga in the kura<br />
within Kōmanawa - Māori<br />
medium. Whānau participated<br />
in interviews to give voice to<br />
the dreams, aspirations and<br />
expectations they have around<br />
ako/teaching and learning<br />
for their tamariki. We look<br />
forward to viewing the end<br />
product and sharing that with you through our<br />
website.<br />
It was with a real sense of excitement that<br />
we partnered with Ko Māui Hangarau on<br />
Thursday, 4th <strong>August</strong> <strong>2022</strong> to present the<br />
Māori Tech Innovators and Entrepreneurs<br />
Summit. The event was designed to capture<br />
the hearts and minds of Rangatahi who have<br />
an interest in Digital Innovation, Technology<br />
and Entrepreneurship. Rangatahi had the<br />
opportunity to meet some of the best Māori<br />
Tech Innovators and Entrepreneurs in the<br />
country here at Haeata.<br />
It was exciting to have Tom Aleasna at kura on<br />
Monday, 1 <strong>August</strong> <strong>2022</strong> to assist ākonga with<br />
Kapa Haka. Tom wrote the kura haka and a<br />
selection of original waiata specifically for our<br />
ākonga. He is a taonga and we<br />
are grateful for his awhi in that<br />
space.<br />
A huge thank you to kaimahi<br />
and whānau for their support<br />
of our ākonga during the<br />
Matariki celebrations. It was<br />
wonderful to see the displays<br />
of ākonga work and to host so<br />
many people at kura for the<br />
celebrations.<br />
Finally, I hope that you have<br />
put your name forward for the<br />
Haeata Board. Governance<br />
is an exciting wero and a<br />
platform for increasing skills,<br />
confidence and community<br />
engagement. Thank you for all<br />
your wonderful support of our<br />
kura, its kaimahi and ākonga. Kaha ake tahi - we<br />
are stronger together!<br />
Ko Haeata Tātou!<br />
Kia kaha, kia toa, kia manawanui<br />

Hikuawa & Kaunuku Update:<br />
Manu Tukutuku for Matariki<br />
He manu aute e taea<br />
te whakahoro!<br />
A flying-kite made of paper mulberry<br />
bark can be made to fly fast!<br />
In Term 2, ākonga across Years 1-8 in<br />
Hikuawa and Kaunuku hapori learned<br />
about the important role that kites have<br />
always played for Māori throughout<br />
history and in particular during the winter<br />
season when they were flown to signify<br />
the start of Matariki, the Māori New Year.<br />
The Māori kite is called manu tukutuku or<br />
manu aute – manu translates as either kite<br />
or bird. Kites were also known as pākau,<br />
a name for the wing of a bird.<br />
Haeata Services Academy NZDF Bushcraft<br />
Course <strong>2022</strong><br />
What is Bushcraft?<br />
Bushcraft is to successfully tramp, camp, hike,<br />
plan a tramp, navigate and survive in the New<br />
Zealand wilderness which if not prepared could<br />
kill you.<br />
The NZDF bushcraft course is managed by the<br />
(New Zealand Defence Force), and this year<br />
the training was held at Orton Bradley Park<br />
from 27th June to the 1st July <strong>2022</strong>.<br />
40 young people from 3 different schools<br />
attend the course through the Services<br />
Academy’s of their schools, Aurora College,<br />
Grey High and Haeata students arrived on a<br />
cool Monday afternoon, and waiting for them<br />
were members of the Youth Life Skills team<br />
from Burnham Military Camp.<br />
Time was not being wasted as students were<br />
into their first lesson on tent construction,<br />
then layering and so on to capturing water and<br />
stretcher construction, to leading a tramp.<br />
The frosty early wake ups and rainy late nights<br />
took a toll on the group however they worked<br />
well together to get through, showing resilience<br />
and time management, and after the 5 days the<br />
group of young people did well, with leaders<br />
emerging and everyone stepping up.<br />
The course was challenging and tough for the<br />
group, they got through it as best as they could,<br />
and because of the course of the challenge<br />
they learnt a lot about themselves, and of<br />
the dangers of not being prepared in the NZ<br />
backcountry and bush.<br />
The course is to practise and prepare for the<br />
coast to coast adventure challenge later in the<br />
term run again by the NZDF.<br />
Towards the end of term 2 we celebrated<br />
the start of our Matariki Public Holiday,<br />
the first ever in Aotearoa on June 24<br />
and we made some manu tukutuku to<br />
signify this important event. We had to<br />
test which materials were the best for<br />
flying and how we could gather and use<br />
traditional materials and follow tikanga.<br />
Some ākonga focused<br />
their manu tukutuku to<br />
represent one of the atua<br />
and what is associated<br />
with that atua - so they<br />
designed the atua and then<br />
drew pictures around them<br />
- eg. Tane Mahuta trees/<br />
birds etc.<br />

74A MONCKS SPUR ROAD | REDCLIFFS<br />
37 PORT HILLS ROAD | HOME IN HEATHCOTE VALLEY<br />
It's a wonderful feeling inspecting a HOME which presents well, leaving<br />
you more time to imagine what your life would be like living there, rather<br />
than what you need to fix before moving in.<br />
The HOME itself has oodles of character and charm: the perfect HOME to<br />
raise a family for years to come, ideal for those who adore character homes.<br />
3 BED 1 BATH 1 CAR<br />
586 M2<br />
(MORE OR LESS)<br />
Then there are the bedrooms. All rooms are quite capable of fitting kingsized<br />
beds and the high ceilings make you feel like you have an abundance<br />
of space.<br />
Greeted by an oversized door which then opens into a large entranceway,<br />
the immediate feeling of space creates an inviting feeling. The kitchen,<br />
dining, and main living space are filled with natural light, and the openplan<br />
nature of the HOME emphasizes the functional floor plan. With all the<br />
hard work completed, you can start to appreciate this wonderful HOME.<br />
For the keen gardener, there is enough yard to satisfy your green thumb,<br />
install a vegetable patch or keep some chooks.<br />
Location wise could not get much better. You have the sought-after local<br />
school and pre-school all minutes away. You are only 6 minutes from<br />
Lyttelton, and due to the main ring roads, you are only 10 minutes away<br />
from the CBD. You also have local conveniences a short stroll away and<br />
some of Christchurch's best walking and biking tracks on your doorstep.<br />

AUCTION: 12PM, 20 AUGUST <strong>2022</strong> ONSITE (UNLESS SOLD PRIOR)<br />

HOME. The combined warmth of love and mid century construction ensures<br />

“FEATURE PROPERTY”<br />
Situated on 926m2 prime St Albans land, this is the perfect opportunity to<br />
secure a foothold in a much sought after location. The close proximity to<br />
Merivale shops and eateries add to the easy lifestyle this HOME has to<br />
offer.<br />
3 BED 1 BATH 2 CAR<br />
926 M2<br />
(MORE OR LESS)<br />
The main living and dining face North West flow into the outdoor area,<br />
creating the perfect platform for entertaining guests. The fluid layout of<br />
the kitchen, living and dining makes family living an absolute breeze. With<br />
exposed brick features adding a touch of class to the HOME, the addition<br />
of a mud room/laundry, a beautiful private and tranquil garden setting<br />
which includes an organic kitchen garden, all make this a special property<br />
indeed.<br />
Three spacious bedrooms complete the HOME and give each family<br />
member their very own space. For large families the double garage and offstreet<br />
parking in a quiet lane is perfect for storing extra vehicles or the kids<br />
wanting to play ball in the safety of their own driveway. Zoned for Paparoa<br />
Street Primary, Heaton Intermediate and close to a number of private<br />
schools.<br />
