Almost 5.5 acres of gently sloping land overlook Gore Bay and the Pacific Ocean, a rare, privileged position surrounded by nature reserves. Just moments from the famous Cathedral Cliffs, this private, sunny property feels deeply connected to its landscape - peaceful, sheltered and only minutes from the beach.

Down a long gravel driveway, the home is perfectly oriented to capture light, shelter and views. A wide green lawn surrounds the dwelling, bordered by mature trees, flowering shrubs and native bush. Every corner reveals another aspect of the land: open fields, tucked-away garden beds, a large water storage tank and the calm that only countryside living can offer. Used as both a family home and a relaxed holiday escape rolled into one, every day feels a like being on holiday.

The open-plan living, dining and kitchen area has natural light pouring in through wide windows and a slider leading to the expansive wooden deck. A wood-burner anchors the space for cooler months, while the functional kitchen, light cabinetry and breakfast bar create an easy, social flow.

Down the hall, three sunlit bedrooms provide restful retreats. The primary sits privately to one side, while the other two are ideal for family or guests. A bathroom with a bathtub, plus a practical laundry with outdoor access, completes the interior.

A double garage with studio or workshop adds excellent storage and versatility, while colourful gardens and mature plantings frame the home beautifully. The property is serviced by the Hurunui water scheme, with three units per day (5,400L) and additional storage allowing for irrigation when required, all perfectly framing the sweeping sea and mountain views that stretch from Gore Bay and Port Robinson to the Kaikōura Ranges.

You’re surrounded by natural beauty yet still just a short drive to Cheviot for amenities, medical centre and shops, with Kaikōura, Amberley and wider North Canterbury all within easy reach.

Call Steve Collier to make the early move on this opportunity.
