If you've been waiting for something truly different, this is it.
St Itas is one of those properties that stops people in their tracks. Originally established in the early 1900s and later run as a well-loved bed and breakfast, it offers a rare opportunity to secure a home with real presence, history, and genuine income potential.
Set on approximately one acre of beautifully maintained grounds, the property is as impressive outside as it is in. Manicured gardens, fruit trees, a pond, tennis court, and expansive outdoor entertaining areas create a setting that feels both peaceful and purposeful. The striking brick exterior, paired with a new roof completed in 2021, ensures the home is as practical as it is timeless.
Inside, the scale and character are immediately evident. High stud ceilings, a welcoming entrance, and a range of versatile spaces including a lounge, formal dining and games room make this a home that can easily adapt to your vision. The existing layout includes multiple guest rooms with ensuites, additional accommodation, and shared spaces that have previously supported a successful accommodation business.
Upstairs, the manager's residence offers a comfortable and private retreat, complete with two bedrooms, open-plan living, double glazing and a balcony with views toward Mt Hutt.
Located in Rakaia, just 40 minutes from Christchurch and on a key route to Methven, Mt Hutt ski field, and the Opuke Hot Pools, this is a position that consistently attracts travellers year-round.
Whether you're looking to revive the accommodation business, create a unique lifestyle property, or secure a standout investment, St Itas is a property that offers options - and not many like it come to market.
This is more than just a home. It's an opportunity to take on something special and make it your own.
Deadline Sale: Offer/s to be presented at 4:00pm on Wednesday 15th April at 292 Clyde Road, Bryndwr (unless sold prior).
