This is a home that celebrates a life lived in harmony with nature. Nestled within a lush, 1,705sqm sanctuary of greenery and birdsong, 6 Zephyr Terrace offers a rare blend of post-quake peace of mind and timeless character. Our owner is now downsizing, presenting a remarkable opportunity for a new family to secure their own slice of this verdant paradise.

The heart of the home is defined by the warmth of raked Rimu ceilings that span the open-plan living, dining, and kitchen areas, creating an atmosphere of rustic elegance and volume. This central hub flows seamlessly to the outdoors through two sets of sliding doors, leading you onto an extensive deck that perfectly immerses you in the surrounding oasis of greenery. The dining area is thoughtfully designed, featuring a beautiful built-in sideboard and cabinetry. Climate control is effortless regardless of the season; stay cosy with the clean-air woodfire and heat pump in the living area, while a heat transfer system ensures the three bedrooms stay warm. An additional heat pump in the hallway provides total home comfort throughout the year.

The layout features a master bedroom that opens directly onto the patio, and two more generous bedrooms that share a modern, full family bathroom, and a separate toilet for convenience. Below, the home offers incredible utility with a single garage and a sizeable workshop area-perfect for hobbies or gear storage-complemented by a carport tucked under the decking to accommodate extra vehicles.

This elevated retreat captures the essence of Governors Bay living, where the expansive property provides a private buffer from the world, yet keeps you firmly connected to a vibrant, sought-after community. You are just a two-minute stroll from the coastline and the bay jetty, and within easy walking distance of the historic Governors Bay Hotel, the local primary school, and the community pool. While you feel worlds away in your private botanical paradise, the Christchurch CBD is a scenic 20-minute drive (approx.) over the hill, and the property sits firmly within the coveted Cashmere High School zone.

Auction: To be held from 11am, 2nd April 2026 at Ray White City Office, 76 Hereford Street, City Centre, Christchurch (unless sold prior)
