All the hard work has been done! After 40 years creating a beautiful, unique and secluded property with a park-like setting, the owners have decided this magnificent sanctuary is ready for a new family to enjoy.

This 30 acre property boasts many attractive facilities, including a well-appointed self-contained flat which would give occupants the ability for independent space, while still remaining connected to the main family. This would certainly suit a multi-generational family or possibly Airbnb accommodation for a discerning traveller.

The main dwelling offers an abundance of space with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 2 living areas, a modern kitchen, laundry, study and a 2+ car size garage with internal access. This is complemented by natural decor tones and a number of features in schist, including the welcoming internal entrance way, a large open fireplace and numerous outdoor schist columns. For cooler days, the main lounge offers an attractive schist fireplace. There is also a new log burner with wetback in the living area and two heat pumps - one in the living area and an intergrated unit in the hall. To help reduce those power bills, there is a very efficient solar water tank.

When outdoors, you can enjoy the heated swimming pool with a welcoming cabana. The ideal location means that you will enjoy the last of the summer sun in complete comfort as it is sheltered from the cool easterly winds. For the more energetic, there is a tennis court, basketball hoop and petanque pit.

The 11.77664 ha farm consists of 7 paddocks that are fully deer fenced, with electric wires and water troughs. There are also numerous outbuildings, which include:

• a newly built and discreet 3 bay barn close to the main house with electricity
• a large 4-bay barn in the main farm area
• a purpose-built deer shed with raceways, a weighbridge and easy-to-use separate holding pens.

With only two minutes to the local school, one minute to a rustic 3 par golf course, numerous bike and walking tracks and a 15 minute drive from Rangiora, don't wait too long to secure this piece of paradise with fabulous mountain views wherever you look, as it will surely be snapped up by a discerning buyer.
