Set on 4 hectares of beautifully established grounds, this exceptional Swannanoa residence offers a rare opportunity to secure a property tightly held by the same family since it was built in 1997. Constructed with recycled brick and finished in a plastered exterior, the home combines enduring materials with a timeless aesthetic.

Originally a substantial four-bedroom, two-bathroom home, it was thoughtfully extended in 2006 with a second storey, creating a versatile residence of over 320sqm. The home now features two master suites with walk-in robes and ensuites, three additional bedrooms, and a well-appointed family bathroom.

Living spaces are generous and flexible, including an extra-large main lounge, a second living area currently used as a games room, and a separate kitchen and dining zone forming the heart of the home-ideal for both family living and entertaining.

Outdoors, mature gardens provide a private setting, complemented by expansive decks and a recently refurbished swimming pool. A rustic pool house with bathroom facilities enhances entertaining, while a separate sleepout offers added flexibility for guests, extended family, or a home office.

The land is well set up for a range of lifestyle options. A 6-bay shed with power and lighting has been used for calf rearing, alongside a greenhouse, raised vegetable beds, and two additional lockable sheds for storage or workshop use. A double garage with workshop and a carport complete the picture.

Located just minutes from Mandeville's amenities, and within easy reach of Rangiora and Christchurch Airport, this property offers the perfect balance of rural living and convenience.

A property of this scale and long-held history is increasingly hard to find-offering space, lifestyle, and opportunity in one exceptional package.
