1 John Street, Temuka, Timaru, Canterbury

A sunny corner section, a proper backyard and a home you can shape to suit your style. Set on 488m² in Temuka, this single-level three-bedroom house offers around 100m² of living, one bathroom and two carparks, with an uncomplicated layout that makes day-to-day life feel nicely manageable.

The kitchen and dining area sit together, with plenty of natural light and a clear connection through to the living room. There is generous bench space and the window over the sink looks out to the garden. Sliding doors open from the living room to the porch, giving you easy indoor-outdoor flow, while a heat pump and wood burner provide two welcome options for keeping things cosy through a South Canterbury winter.

All three bedrooms are arranged off the hall, including the primary bedroom with built-in storage. The family bathroom includes a bath, separate shower and vanity, while a separate W.C. and separate laundry help keep busy mornings moving without too much fuss.

Outside, the section has the relaxed, lived-in feel of an established home, with lawn, garden beds and mature planting around the house. The covered porch is a handy spot for morning coffee or a quiet afternoon out of the weather, and the carport is complemented by additional off-street parking. There is also enough garden here for anyone who enjoys a bit of weekend pottering.

Temuka keeps the essentials within easy reach, including Temuka Domain, Temuka Primary School, Opihi College and the shops and services along King Street. It is a location that makes town life simple while keeping South Canterbury’s wider countryside close at hand.
