1695 Queen Charlotte Drive, Linkwater

Positioned in the heart of The Grove, this charming two-bedroom cottage offers an easy-care lifestyle in one of the Marlborough Sounds' most picturesque locations.

Built in 2004 and presented in good condition throughout, the home enjoys a sunny aspect and is just a short walk from the beach, the Grove Jetty, and the calm waters that make this area so popular for boating, fishing, kayaking, and swimming.

Adding to the lifestyle appeal, the renowned Link Pathway passes nearby, connecting walkers and cyclists to some of the Marlborough Sounds' most spectacular scenery. The property also sits along Queen Charlotte Drive, widely regarded as one of New Zealand's most scenic coastal drives, winding through native bush and offering breathtaking views across the Sounds.

Nature lovers will be right at home here. The surrounding native bush is alive with birdsong, particularly from tūī and bellbirds, while kererū regularly visit the area and New Zealand falcons are occasionally seen overhead. The nearby estuary attracts an array of birdlife including oystercatchers, royal spoonbills, pied stilts, and gannets. Out on the water, it's not uncommon to spot seals basking from the shoreline, pods of dolphins playing in the bay, and even migrating orca making their way through the Sounds.

Inside, you'll find two comfortable bedrooms, a recently renovated bathroom, and a light-filled open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area. The living space flows effortlessly onto a sunny deck, creating the perfect spot to relax, entertain, or simply soak up the peaceful surroundings. One of the bedrooms also enjoys direct access to the deck.

A single garage provides secure parking and storage, while the easy-care grounds mean more time enjoying the outdoors and less time maintaining the property. Whether you're searching for a permanent residence or a holiday escape, this well-maintained home delivers a relaxed Marlborough Sounds lifestyle in a sought-after location.
