Located just off the Southern Scenic Route in the Quarry Hills / Catlins area, the former Quarry Hills School is a truly remarkable lifestyle property where local history has been lovingly preserved, and everyday living has been reimagined with style, comfort and charm.

Step inside and the magic continues. Behind the familiar school façade is a stunning transformation, thoughtfully renovated throughout to blend modern ease with the character and nostalgia that make this home so memorable. Warm, light-filled and welcoming, the residence features two generous bedrooms, two beautifully appointed bathrooms and a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and living area made for relaxed family living, long lunches and effortless entertaining.

And then there is the unexpected bonus. The former school swimming pool has been cleverly converted into a fully self-contained one-bedroom retreat, complete with its own kitchenette and bathroom. Whether used for guest accommodation, Airbnb or holiday-home income, extended family, studio or creative hideaway, it adds a brilliant layer of flexibility.

Set across approximately 5,290sqm of established grounds, the property continues to celebrate its past while offering all the freedom of rural living. The original tennis court, multiple storage sheds and generous outdoor space create a setting rich with possibility, from gardens and gatherings to hobbies, projects, holiday stays and peaceful weekends away from the rush.

Beautifully restored, wonderfully versatile and full of heart, this is more than a home. It is a chance to become the next custodian of a special piece of local heritage in one of Southland’s most loved coastal-country regions. Properties with this much character, history and spark are exceptionally rare. Once you experience Quarry Hills, you will understand why.
