The Terrace - Perfect for skiers and families | House in Whitecliffs
3 Bedroom House in Glentunnel, Whitecliffs
"The Terrace" is a spacious modern house on a terrace beside the Selwyn River. Unbeatable views over fields and the majestic Canterbury foothills. Double glazing and log fire keep you cosy in winter but in sunshine you'll want to dine outside or just snooze on the sheltered swing seat.
