22 Reid Road, Herbert, Waitaki

This Sunny Creekside Cottage has recently undergone extensive renovations inside and out. Cosy and warm with natural light filled rooms, elevated in all day sun and landscaped with natives, heritage shrubs, plums and apple trees, a stunning setting amongst the Herbert Podocarp forest with the sounds of the native birds and a gentle creek at your back door.

The open-plan living area flows seamlessly into a modern kitchen, complete with a dedicated scullery for effortless entertaining and everyday functionality. With two sinks, dishwasher, fridge, microwave and plenty of storage this is a chefs kitchen built to entertain. The dining area has built in bench seating in a bay window and flows naturally through to a bbq deck area. Barn doors lead off the living area to the master suite with a generous walk-in wardrobe. A beautiful new bathroom and separate laundry room complete with washer and sink adds to the convenience, while quality finishes and warm natural materials throughout reflect the home’s harmony with its surroundings. A breezeway connects the guest bedroom and doubles as a covered porch and sunroom.

Recent renovations include new double glazed windows and doors, roofing, electrical, insulation, plumbing, decking, kitchen, bathroom, laundry, quality fixtures and fittings. A quality Canadian made wood burner stays heated for hours.

Several outbuildings and a single mans hut tack room, new sheep fence and electrics add to the property. With 5 well fenced paddocks, loading ramp and authentic wool shed with newer bay shed for taller trailer or caravan.

Next to the Herbert Podocarp Forest in an exceptional area of preservation and nestled alongside creeks for swimming, this peaceful sanctuary provides the perfect escape. Cycling trails at your door step with the beach just minutes away.

There’s potential to lease out your private paddock on the other side of the driveway—ideal for a tiny home, eco-cabin, or bringing in a mate with a van and a dream.

Whether you’re craving a peaceful retreat, a touch of natures magic, or a place where boots and birdsong are always welcome, this cottage is ready to charm you. Current QV does not reflect upgrades. Phone Kitty for more info 0273460846
