With Summer well on its way with lovely long, light evenings, there's plenty of reason to get out and about. What's your go-to evening exercise?
Does anyone have an unwanted 5" or 6" Clay or spun-concrete drainage-pipe with bell-mouth socket-end they don't want? Salvage is fine. Cheers.

I will be available for the Franklin region.
I am Samara, mother to two beautiful girls.
We have lived in the local Franklin area for six years, Clarks Beach is where we call home.
Prior to that I have been a bit of a gypsy and have experienced New Zealand's beauty and all it has to offer.
I pride myself on being a family person. I absolutely believe there can be a balance to work and home life.
I have chosen to embark on a journey in real estate as I have a love for history, homes, architecture and most importantly people. Making connections is how we learn and grow.
Take a chance on a newbie and I promise you won't be disappointed. When you choose to list with Osbornes you are choosing a family business who has strong family values.
Get in touch for an appraisal, I would really appreciate your support.

They want a sale and have instructed us to present all offers.
Beginning life as a renowned restaurant and currently operating very successfully as boutique accommodation, The Peppertree works very well as a function centre and would also make a superb cellar door. Located with State Highway frontage close to Blenheim and situated on the soon to open Picton to Kaikoura cycleway, it is ideally positioned to cash in on Marlborough’s growing tourism industry.
Each of the five beautifully appointed suites has been subtly themed, providing individual charm as well as comfort. The heart of the home is a spacious, recently renovated farmhouse kitchen enjoying garden and orchard views. A large wood burner with wetback and solar heats the water for a series of radiators around the house, ensuring warmth year-round.
Encompassing four hectares and featuring organically managed vineyard and gardens, fruit trees, berry patches, olives and grazing for sheep, cattle, and horses, The Peppertree is close to being self-sufficient. The extra land also offers an opportunity for future expansion and development.
The rateable value for land and improvements is $1,520,000.
All offers requested to be received by 4 pm Wednesday 27 November 2019.
For more information or an appointment to view, please contact Michal or Tim.
