This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to secure a generational family home and business. Free your entire family from the 9-5 grind, own your own business and build an empire for the future of your family/families. Take this already established business to the next level, the opportunity for growth is outstanding.
The Property
Currently home to four adults and three teenagers, the 355sqm layout is ideal for multi-generational living. Upstairs, an entire parents' retreat offers privacy and comfort with a generous bedroom, ensuite, separate office with kitchenette, and balcony with views to the mountains beyond. Downstairs, four bedrooms - two opening directly to the deck - accommodate the rest of the household with ease. There's also a large rumpus room for additional living space or recreation.
Sure the interior needs updating but the fundamentals are here - big rooms, multiple living areas, good flow to outdoor spaces - and with a little imagination, this could become something truly special.
The setting is peaceful and established, with sweeping lawns, mature gardens, courtyard, pergola-covered deck, spa for enjoying quiet evenings under the stars and swimming pool. There's plenty of room to roam, have horses, ride motorbikes, shoot hoops, or simply relax. A solid workshop for those who need practical working space and the property is ECAN approved for irrigation with water rights.
The Business
Included in the sale is Bark Royal, a well-established, profitable dog care business offering:
- Full-service dog boarding, day care, and grooming
- Healthy cash flow with scope for further growth.
- Family-run for over two decades with high customer retention and strong word-of-mouth referrals.
- Existing infrastructure supports increased capacity and potential for additional services (e.g. training and retail).
- 30 mins from Christchurch, 15 mins from Rangiora.
Whether you're seeking a high-performing, recession-resilient business, or an animal care professional ready to step into ownership, Bark Royal offers a turn-key opportunity with brand strength, operational reliability, and scalability.
There's flexibility here - for lifestyle, for income, for the future. Whether you're seeking a place to bring the family together, step into a profitable business, or both, this property is worth your attention.
