Clad in a striking mix of Hardy’s Oblique and cedar, this 206m² 3-bed residence combines architectural design with craftsmanship and comfort - all set on a generous 783m² section in one of Canterbury’s most welcoming alpine towns.

The open-plan living area is warmed by a Woodsman Tasman log burner, a Daikin heat pump and a heat transfer system that ensures every bedroom stays cosy through Methven’s winters. COREtec flooring — waterproof and durable — anchors the space, while plush Rhino carpet (with its 30-year guarantee) brings softness underfoot.

The kitchen is elegant and practical, featuring engineered stone benchtops, tiled splashbacks, and LED strip lighting. High-spec Fisher & Paykel appliances, an induction hob and plumbing for a large double-door fridge ensure it’s future-proof. The scullery mirrors the same refined finishes and provides extensive storage, making entertaining seamless and everyday cooking effortless.

The master suite is a true retreat, with a spacious walk-in wardrobe, drawers and shelving, and a tiled ensuite complete with double vanity, walk-in shower, underfloor heating, and premium fixtures. The family bathroom echoes this luxury with a tiled shower, bath, and under-tile heating, while a separate toilet with its own vanity adds extra convenience.

The fully carpeted double garage includes built-in ski storage and an attic with lighting and walking platform, ensuring space for everything from gear to seasonal essentials. Superior insulation — R 4.0 in the walls, R 7.0 in the ceilings, under-slab polystyrene, and argon-filled, Low-E, thermally broken double glazing — means this home is as efficient as it is comfortable.

Outside, the macrocarpa front fence, stained to complement the cedar cladding, frames a section designed to be both low-maintenance and inviting. From here, you’re minutes from Methven village, local schools, and the ski fields, cafés, and hot pools that make this alpine community so special.
