Imagine the drive from Christchurch melting away the stresses of the week as you wind your way around the sparkling waters of Akaroa Harbour toward your very own retreat in Duvauchelle. Positioned in Ngaio Grove with lovely views of the harbour and surrounding hills, this property is perfect for unwinding.

The layout has been thoughtfully designed with relaxation and connection in mind. The kitchen, with ample storage, flows into the expansive open-plan living area, bathed in sunlight to create a warm and inviting heart of the home. Both bedrooms open directly to the deck, further enhancing the seamless indoor-outdoor lifestyle.

A large sheltered paved courtyard, established garden, and sun-drenched deck provide the perfect backdrop for summer barbecues, family celebrations, or simply a glass of wine while the sun sets over the harbour. The flat lawn offers endless room for children’s adventures, pets at play, or even pitching tents for summer sleepovers.

For boating enthusiasts, the oversized garage was purpose-built to accommodate a boat and the inevitable collection of gear that a holiday home gathers. With a nearby boat ramp and wharf, the water is yours to enjoy whenever the mood strikes. For land-based pursuits, the Akaroa Golf Course, scenic walking tracks, and some of Canterbury’s most beautiful beaches — including Le Bons Bay and Okains Bay — are all within easy reach. Add to that the charm of historic Akaroa village, with its boutique shops, cafés, and French-inspired atmosphere, and you have a lifestyle that feels both indulgent and effortless.

Offered for sale are both 24 and 26 together — two titles totalling 1,266sqm. This not only secures a spacious and private sanctuary for today but also unlocks future potential for development should you wish to explore it.

Loved and treasured by one family for more than 35 years, this property has been the backdrop to decades of holidays, milestones, and memories. Now it is ready for another family to create their own story.

Seamlessly combining comfort, convenience, and opportunity, this is more than just a property — it’s a rare chance to own your own slice of paradise in Duvauchelle.
