Arbutus Homestay (City treehouse)
ChristchurchNZD 1,800.00/month
I live on the lower slopes of the Cashmere Hills among the trees with a stunning view of the main divide. I am a part time teacher of neuro diverse adults and tutor refugee and migrant classes in sewing. I enjoy gardening and have a bent towards organic vegetable growing, recycling and reusing = sustainability. I have travelled NZ extensively and parts of Australia. In 2017 & 2024 I spent three months discovering Europe, Uk & North Wales. I have extensive knowledge of NZ particularly our beautiful South Island My adult family are involved in music teaching, building, education, farming and parenting. I have a young black Labrador, Gus who is playful and friendly. He will be caged if guests are not keen for his company. I am a hill walker, having done most of the trails on the Port Hills. My home is on four levels with the guest ensuite room being on the main level. All levels have views over the city to the main mountain divide.......glorious in winter. Guests are welcome to use my living spaces. The main lounge has a modern wood burner, stereo and piano. The dining living room has TV, Wifi access and comfortable seating leading to sunny deck for outdoor dining during the summer. Modern laundry facilities are available. There is ample parking for vehicles. The Orbiter bus connection is handy as is the city bus and as I am less than 3kms from the city centre taxi fares are reasonable. NB: It is possible to access my home with a wheelchair although there are five deep steps to the front door. The ensuite shower is 900 m2 and cosy. There is a larger wheelchair accessible toilet on the main floor.
Check out time is 10 am or by prior arrangement. Breakfast is served 7am - 9 am. Earlier/ later if requested. Please do not consume takeaway food in our bedrooms. You are welcome to use our dining area, cutlery and crockery.
