Room to rent in stunning Lyttelton Villa

Donya from Lyttelton

We have a beautiful upstairs room overlooking the port with spectacular views right across to Governors Bay, in a stunningly refurbished and renovated 1870's Villa, on the sunny side of Lyttelton on Reserve Terrace.

Polished kauri floor boards, heat pump/air con in room and semi furnished (Would need a bed).

$160 per week plus power, internet and kitty for house keeping(Cleaner does the large expanse of floors and bathroom weekly) and basic communal items.....Kitty is $15 per week, power is around $60 per month at the moment and internet is about $35 a month for unlimited broadband and a phone.

Long term tenant preferred but open to short term also.



Home is artistically furnished with a combination of vintage, antique and modern. All appliances you need.

Lovely cottage style organic potagers gardens, lots of space inside and out with deckings and two terraces in the gardens.

Share with two busy working adults, one Male 28 (Heading off overseas in Feb) and one female 38 and a small person (little girl 2.5) who is busy, happy and attends pre school three days a week and has a busy social life.

Into arts, music, food, cooking, adventuring and general happy homely living.......I work from home some days so prefer someone working onsite.

Our home is spacious, bright, comfortable and harmonious :)

Sing out if this sounds like your cup of tea for a living scenario.....Amazing house....relaxed, respectful independent people.....

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
