Set in the heart of Shotover Country, this beautiful four bedroom home is made for family life. It backs onto the equestrian zone, so your outlook is open space and horses rather than the neighbours' windows, and you take it all in from a covered deck fitted with adjustable louvres for shade in summer and shelter when the weather turns.

Inside, warm wooden floors run through the open plan kitchen, dining and living area, the natural hub of the house where everyone ends up. A separate TV room gives the family somewhere to spread out, whether that is the kids and a movie or a quiet retreat away from the main living space. The kitchen is generous and practical, with a scullery tucked in behind to keep the bench clear.

The four bedrooms are well proportioned, with the master enjoying its own walk-in wardrobe and ensuite, served by a family bathroom for the rest of the household. Double glazing throughout keeps things quiet and comfortable, and the whole house is centrally heated by a gas radiator system, so it stays genuinely warm right through a Central Otago winter rather than just in the room the heater happens to be in. A double internal-access garage rounds out the practical side.

Shotover Country is one of Queenstown's most family-friendly neighbourhoods, close to schools, parks and the Shotover River, with the airport and town both an easy drive. This is a home to settle into for the long term.
