Amore Cottage

Amore Cottage is a truly special home that combines character, comfort, privacy and country living.

Set on a picturesque section with its own private vineyard and overlooking a neighbouring olive grove, this beautifully presented bungalow has been thoughtfully extended to create a warm and welcoming home that blends heritage charm with modern living. Best of all, it offers a genuine country feel just a short stroll from Martinborough's vibrant village square.

At the heart of the home is a spacious open plan living area with a log burner that provides warmth and ambience through the cooler months, complemented by a DVS heat transfer system. Double glazing through most of the house adds further comfort year-round.

Accommodation comprises three generous double bedrooms, two with beautiful built-in window seats that capture the afternoon sun and look across to the neighbouring olive grove - peaceful places to sit and enjoy the rural outlook.

The spacious bathroom combines style and practicality, with a generous shower, dual basins and a charming clawfoot bath that perfectly complements the home's character. Dual access from the hallway and primary bedroom provides ensuite-style convenience, while a separate guest toilet is ideal for family and visitors.

With excellent indoor-outdoor flow, outdoor living is a real feature of the property, with inviting spaces at both the front and rear of the home. A private patio wraps around the rear, capturing morning and afternoon sun and providing the perfect spot for entertaining or simply relaxing outdoors. The established garden includes walnut, feijoa, apple, fig, pear and plum trees, bringing seasonal harvests and a relaxing garden. At the front of the house, sit with a glass of wine overlooking your own grapevines - a wonderful connection to the wine culture that Martinborough is renowned for.

Within walking distance of Martinborough Square and just a short distance from Martinborough Golf Club, Amore Cottage offers the rare combination of village convenience and rural tranquillity.

Whether you're searching for a permanent residence, a Martinborough retreat, or a property with character and charm, Amore Cottage offers a distinctive slice of Martinborough country life this unique offering deserves your attention.

Currently operating as a popular homestay and weekend retreat, this property could come furnished for those looking for a turnkey opportunity.

Homes with this much character, charm, and the country lifestyle are seldom available - early viewings are highly recommended.

Listed for sale

A rating valuation is the council's figure for apportioning rates, not a market appraisal. Sale prices are as published; a code beside a price is the council's sale type — hover it for what it means. “Off the market” only means the property stopped being advertised: it may have sold, been withdrawn or moved to another agency.

If it is yours, claiming it puts the council record, the title and what it costs you to hold in one place — and lets you put your lending, insurance and power out to people who compete for them.

Free. Takes about a minute.

We check your name against the registered owner on the title before a claim is accepted. Nothing on this page changes for anyone else, and no provider is contacted until you ask.

What could you build here?

See whether a granny flat fits beside the house: the Building Act exemption, the national granny flat rules and the zone’s own. Then ask builders to price the shape you pick.
