Weeknights can run smoothly here and weekends are where this Kaiapoi family home really earns its title. Built in 2024 and Set on a 402m² section with a 150m² floor plan, it brings together three bedrooms, two bathrooms, two off-street parks and a backyard made for relaxed time with friends and family.

The kitchen sits at the centre of daily life, pairing warm timber cabinetry with an island bench for casual meals, homework or a glass of something while dinner comes together. A butlers pantry keeps extra prep and appliances out of sight, while open-plan dining slides straight to the patio for simple summer meals. Open plan dining and living add real family flexibility, with heat pumps, natural light and a fireplace giving everyone somewhere to gather, retreat or settle in for a movie.

Accommodation is kept practical and comfortable, the master bedroom with its en-suite and walk-in robe create a sanctuary with its easy access to the spa. The two other bedrooms include good sized wardrobes for storage, giving children, guests or a work-from-home setup a proper place to land. A family bathroom with separate shower and built-in bath supports busy routines.

Outside, there are paved patio spaces creating zones for coffee, evening drinks and long lunches. There is lawn for pets or play and generous driveway parking, this is a home that shifts effortlessly from school-night practical to Saturday-night social.

Kaiapoi’s riverside lifestyle is within easy reach, with Kaiapoi Borough School, Trousselot Park, Red Eight Café and the town centre all handy for daily routines and weekend catch-ups.
