Located mere minutes’ walk to all of Methven’s popular amenities such as bars, supermarkets, and the Mt. Hutt Ski Bus, you really can’t get accommodation much closer! This alpine styled chalet will leave you wowed with the trendy touches, and everything provided for a delightful night or longer away.
The home is drenched in sunlight and provides comfortable beds, modern appliances, smart TV, free Fibre Wi-Fi and more! Please ensure you read our entire listing description prior to booking.
Downstairs you will find our open-plan lounge which offers sliding doors to a patio area, a compact and functional kitchen (N.B we do not have a dishwasher – all the reason more to enjoy Methven’s multiple eateries and takeaways!), bathroom with large vanity and shower, separate toilet, laundry with storage for skis and boots accompanied by one bedroom with a queen-sized bed.
Travel the stairs and you will find two large bedrooms with a shared toilet and vanity, the bedroom configuration offers one queen-sized bed, and one room with a king single bunk set and a single bed. Both bedrooms upstairs offer skylights, and the bunk room has a bi-fold window overlooking the downstairs area, please be conscious of this if you have young children and are booking our property.
Fitted with a heat pump to heat the home with ease during Methven’s crisp winter nights. We offer quality linen which is all commercially laundered offsite. There is a carport (which is not suitable for SUV vehicles with a roof rack – the carport is too low unfortunately!). Our property shares a driveway with 5 additional residences, but the front of our home offers a private gate and entrance with off-street parking.
