Colliers are proud to present Ribbonwood Country House, a remarkable lifestyle estate offering space, privacy and exceptional versatility. The current owners have deeply valued their time here and now look ahead to their next chapter, inviting genuine and discerning buyer interest.
Elevated and beautifully positioned, the property enjoys sweeping valley and mountain vistas. The established gardens — enriched with native plantings and flowering perennials — are a particular highlight and were featured in the Celebrate Cheviot Garden Tour 2025, reflecting the care and vision invested over time.
Set across 7.57 hectares, the substantial 500sqm residence blends refined entertaining with relaxed everyday living. Landscaped grounds, six paddocks, a pond and a heated outdoor spa create a peaceful, private sanctuary with a strong connection to the surrounding landscape.
The home, completed in 2013, has been thoughtfully designed for both comfort and hosting. A generous lounge with gas fire and adjoining dining area flow seamlessly to the well-appointed kitchen and scullery. Features include a quartz composite Stoneology bench with butler’s sink, commercial-grade oven, excellent storage, and a discreet wine room — ideal for entertaining on any scale.
Accommodation is intelligently zoned. The owner’s wing provides two bedrooms, a shared ensuite and a dedicated office, offering separation and retreat. The guest wing comprises four ensuite bedrooms, including the fully accessible Kōwhai Room, each with its own heat pump. A dedicated therapy or wellness room adds further flexibility, lending itself to a range of lifestyle or home-based business opportunities.
The grounds balance beauty with practicality: productive gardens, landscaped outdoor living spaces, six paddocks, a pond, a 100sqm pole barn, oversized garaging and comprehensive water systems. Evenings invite quiet relaxation in the heated spa, beneath expansive starlit skies.
Located just 90 minutes from Christchurch, Ribbonwood offers privacy without isolation. Cheviot township is close by, while Gore Bay, Motunau Beach and the Hurunui River Mouth provide easy access to fishing, boating and coastal recreation.
Private viewings are available by appointment. We invite you to experience the lifestyle, flexibility and future potential on offer at Ribbonwood Country House.
