About this property

City courtyard retreat near Margaret Mahy in Christchurch

  • Enjoy your own two-level townhouse near Margaret Mahy Playground, with a private fenced courtyard and an open-plan kitchen and lounge. The bedroom and bathroom are upstairs, giving two guests a separate place to unwind. Cook at home, use the in-home laundry and explore central Christchurch on foot.

    The entire one-bedroom townhouse is yours. The kitchen and living area are downstairs, opening to the fenced courtyard; the bedroom and bathroom are upstairs, so indoor stairs are required.
